Visiting Rainbow Road for the first time, Juniper flies slowly over the often-steaming waters, half-mesmerized by the colors and movement of this strange, beautiful place. Caido has so much to offer, such a beautiful and diverse landscape; isn't there room enough for everyone to live in peace?
But then the impending war isn't about land.
Juniper tries to push such thoughts away, to remain in the here and now rather than worrying about the future as she usually does. And, as she does so, she finds a distraction: a woman beside the river, engaged in some work that Juniper can't identify from a distance. As Juniper approaches, she recognizes the woman.
"Aurelia?" Juniper pauses, about to correct herself to Queen Aurelia, but that isn't right, is it? Though she's heard that Aurelia is no longer queen of Torchline, Juniper doesn't know the why, and it leaves her a little confused about how to address Aurelia. Not to mention that the last time they spoke left Juniper rather baffled (and a little offended) at the Torcher queens' refusal to consider an alliance with the Greatwood. But that's water under the bridge now, as far as Juniper is concerned. She lands beside Aurelia with a simple, "Hello. How are you? I hope I'm not interrupting."
