Amalia It doesn't feel like a year. The Amalia of a year ago would never have been here, bold enough to be furious with her friend, confident enough to sit in the shadow of her lover and feel further illuminated rather than snuffed. She doesn't say any of that, though, because that would mean speaking to Adam who she is doing her best to pointedly ignore. Instead she keeps her gaze on Peter, shrugging as he asks if things weren't as good. "Most of the Outlanders had arrived recently," Amalia replies softly, glancing up at Deimos. "It was the first time the Spark Bird came in years, though. And the Luxere were plentiful." And then, because she wants to answer Adam's question without answering Adam, she attempts to shoehorn it in. "They're.. they're very good creatures. The light from their antlers- it can keep any darkness away. Even Longnight darkness." reach for the stars: but child, first recognize the constellations of light you already carry inside you
