JUNIPER
you think i'm happy because i'm smiling,

Juniper mostly lived at her embassy now, needing to be close to the Greatwood's center of power, which had shifted from Sidhe Village to the Sea of Branches. Oh, the village would always be the heart of the Fae as a people, but that was exactly what made it unsuitable as a capital -- the way the Fae, like an aloof individual, guarded their heart closely and let no one in. The Sea of Branches was more open to the outside world, better equipped to deal with changing times. Let Sidhe Village remain a center of the Fae's ancient history and culture; the Sea of Branches would carry them into the future.but it's the easiest thing to do
And today the future held Noah, at Juniper's door. As she opened it, her eyes widened at the sight of the Sentinel; she hadn't expected him in the least. But she didn't forget her manners. "Warden? Welcome to the Greatwood; please, come in. Is everything all right?"
She stepped back to let Noah in to the embassy's reception room, which contained a front desk, two doors, and a staircase leading up to Juniper's private quarters.
if you looked a little closer,
you'd find my eyes aren't smiling too.
