Gossip

*Dalen Capitol: 0 DSTR*

Winifred smirked at the request for evidence of her claim. Though she had been banned from Kobrorus, her father still sent her the occasional update in politics, and all the current nobles. It had been a week since she had heard anything. Shrugging to his request, she sighed through tight lips. “The only thing recent that I know of would be that there was some man freeing slaves throughout Dalen. Lucky them, I suppose. At least, for the ones that weren't recaptured,” she bit her lip and looked at the ceiling, as if searching her mind for more recent details. Continuing with a shallow breath, “Sabina Hibiscus is missing from Verden. I'm finding that there are growing numbers of individuals against the Queen, which screams uprising. Truth be told, I have been isolated for 100 years, so I'm a bit unfamiliar with the trivial gossip. There has been more issue with the werewolves, but can you really say you're surprised? Such an uncivilized lifestyle. I can say, I am familiar with the customs here, and I know how to play my part.”

Noticing the pain in his eyes, Winifred dropped her gaze. An uncomfortable feeling rested in her soul, not understanding how to console anyone, she just gave a tight smile. “Well you're doing something that could be seen as morally just then. But are we?” Turning to the area where Lars and Artem were hiding, she closed her eyes and shook her head unknowingly.
