Laser beams we're about to awesome all your dreams
When Sam finally settles on a good reason, the matriarch falls silent in acceptance. There are other votes to tally, so she pushes her disappoint (though she isn't at all surprised) and nods again. So be it. As for the next speaker... well, Wessex is shocked. Utterly flabbergasted at Rexanna's announcement that they're getting a child.
Perhaps more out of respect for their friendship than anything else, her question comes silently to the Queen. Even in the mental space there's an air of horror, of recoil. The Wraith remembers well that Rex hated being questioned about her choices, but this... this didn't feel like a well thought out thing. It felt like something Bastien would propose.
Rex... a child? What if it's stuck in child form forever? Is that... what you want for it? Her glance goes to Clem, who will forever bethe body of a teenager. Why couldn't they just adopt a kid? What kind of selfishness is this?
Outwardly, she answers. "I gave Kiada a cloak that renders people in shadow invisible. It should work at night. I also have an invisibility chip still, which I could give to someone. But I don't imagine that we'll get the same gift from the Voice twice. Other than that, I don't know about invisibility for fighting them. That seems to be reserved for letting the Monsters live."
