Evie.
A small boon for them - perhaps the best alternative if the ruler couldn’t be an Ascended. Wessex nods again as her thoughts dance around and then formulate, her expression shifting from fury to cold calculation. Part of her regrets what she is going to ask of the girls and part of her finds it a fitting induction. “Right,” the Wraith begins decisively. “I’m hoping you and Evelyn can do something for us, but it’s okay if you can’t. Or don’t want to.”
She asks, suggests, nudges in a certain direction, rather than commands. Sometimes she is General and sometimes she is an eye in the sky, putting the puzzles pieces of their family together in different combinations. “If you’re up for it, it would beneficial to try and get Evie on our side. Play on her kindness and empathy and your ages by telling her you recently Ascended and now that you’ve seen what Safrin and the Old Gods can do, that you’re scared. Get her to promise aloud to protect you. Us if at all possible.” Raising a brow at the direction to manipulate, Wessex waits for either acceptance or rejection.
They were uniquely suited to getting that done, though she would certainly understand if they thought such acting or lying (is it, though?) beyond their skill sets. She has her own target in the Temple, if he’s around.
