Vervain had no issue following Loren and Remi for now, making her way with them over to the gathering crowd. She recognised more and more faces as they all began to come together, and her heart leapt into her chest as finally - finally - the one face she'd been desperately hoping to see made itself known to her. "Ashetta !" Vai's smile was brilliant, her eyes pricking at the corners with tears she would not allow to fall. Her arms moved firmly around her daughter so she could clasp her close, breathing her in deep.
There was a rightness in this - it didn't matter where they were or why, or what they were going to do next. Vai did not have to spend another decade or so looking for her daughter. Ashe was here, and that most important piece of her puzzle had been found. Releasing her with obvious reluctance, Vai carefully tucked a lock of her daughter's raven hair behind her ear. "He will be here," she said quietly, determinedly. Devrum would be here, the same as the rest of them.
