DELPHiA

Delphia's head tilted slightly at Wessex's reaction. Nerves of steel this one had. Abasi's reaction was far more usual, and the apparition turned a warm smile on him. He needn't fear. No wrath or retribution was forthcoming. Slowly she came back to full focus, reentering the world of the corporeal and living as Wessex made clear this was not enough proof for her. She leaned down and picked up the fallen incense burner, her gaze focusing on something seemingly far away. "Skeptical and caustious. Good traits for a leader to have." she said softly.

Her finger drew circles on her thumb as her gaze shifted away from the pair, looking next to Wessex as if a third person stood there. "How pretty..." she said softly, looking at Wessex then with a blank expression but warm eyes. "Your sister, I take it. Magrethe. A true child of Rae too, it seems? So many flowers, always off and away with the animals..." she said softly, eyes going back to the empty space next to her.

"Do you worry about her still? She was so thin...wasting away...flickering out like the lanterns of the festival. There then..." Delphia snaped her fingers, looking at Wessex again. "Gone. Too soon. Too quick. Lungs collapsed, no muscle to hold them, gasping for air she could not get...memories of your mother, perhaps?"
