Ray let out a deep sigh, letting go of some of her tension at Hadama's voice. She sat down on at the lip of the pool, letting her feet soak in the water, "Hey, Hadama. Thank you for coming to meet me on such short notice. I'm ok. Are you well?" Even if Hadama hadn't been the King of Mer, and the current ruler of Torchline, Ray would be seeking him out for this conversation.
She valued his friendship and his advice. The herbalist knew that he would hear her concerns, help her consider her options, and leave her with a better handle on the entire situation then she'd had prior.
Taking a breath to ground herself, she breached the topic. "With Maeve stepping down, and you having to take on her burdens as well as your own..." She nibbled on her lip nervously, uncharacteristically uncertain about her words. "A thought occurred to me. I've been on the council for years, and both you and Maeve are my friends. Torchline is my home. I'd do anything for any of you."
Ray squared her shoulders and spoke with determination, "I'm wondering what your thoughts are on me possibly taking over to lead the surface part of Torchline?"
The air rushed out of her lungs as the words came out, "I never thought I'd be saying this. But right now... I feel like it's needed. Like I'm needed for this role right now."
