Seren
I am magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
Destined to seek, destined to know
Destined to seek, destined to know
Currents of emotion carried through the air, and like most children, Seren was quick to pick up on them. The shiver that passed through her father did not go unnoticed. With Safrin's calm to put a lid on things however, it caused no alarm in her, and she merely nodded. Happily confirming his assumption that yes, that's what she had been told.
But then, her expression fell from the bright beaming into something almost solemn, and deeply serious. Which looked rather peculiar on the round-cheeked little face.
"But I was supposed to ask. Is it alright? If I come to stay with you?" Again, her speech sounded a little rehearsed, but not quite as much as before. Ronin had forced her to go off script, to deviate from a carefully construed vision of how this whole encounter would play out.
And it made her a little nervous, because now Seren had opened up for rejection. The chance for him to say no, she wasn't welcome. The fidgeting stopped, and she grew very still as she waited, tense to hear the answer.
It would determine the start of everything.

I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
