Phoebe
the nightingale
The nightingale appear'd the first
And as her melody she sang
And as her melody she sang
Phoebe looked surprised. Sunjata had gone to Frey? Didn't he have an affinity for Safrin? Nevermind that, the fact that Sunjata was doing something productive for the greater good was more shocking than spending a year in a time warp garden! So shocking in fact that Phoebe couldn't help but blurt, "There is a second Sunjata out there, right?" The likelihood was zero to none but she couldn't help it!
But Frey's next words surprised her most. As a demigod, she expected Frey to want her to represent them. Sure she wasn't as powerful as the others but she could at least heal...but then what did she know of war? Nothing. And Frey had seen this already play out once before, which had been so devestating the gods went to extremes to end it. She glanced down at her hands, then over to her baby in the flower bassinet. Frey wouldn't tell her this without good cause. They had always looked out for her and her whole wellbeing. So she looked back up at them and nodded. "I will go to the place you and Sunjata have built. Surely I can still do some good there." she said, choosing to follow her beloved Frey's advice.

The apple into blossom burst
To life the grass and violets sprang
