the morningstar crest, twisted around a pair of dragons' wings at the hollow of her throat, is well-known to the people of sootopolis. there are some in the league who would know her family. she was, after all, fashioned to be an important person. but whether matias will know it or not, she can't say, but she does her best to keep her shoulder bent in front of it while she works. "there's always a war, matias," she says with a surreptitious smile. she manages to slide one of the tools into the mechanism and pull. the dented metal groans, gears grating, but she doesn't even have to replace any of them. they spin on their own. she'll have to have it looked at, no doubt, but this will suffice for now. "artemis," she says, indigo eyes rising with her half-truth. she pockets the tools and uses lyune's reins to pull herself back into his saddle. her boots find his stirrups and she tests the pedals; his wing folds out smoothly. lyune's head snakes back around, frills rattling now. his pupils are paper-thin slits regarding the human before him. his maw cracks, exposing ruby gums and teeth as thick around as a fist. but he is mine. i can't let anyone else claim my prize.vengeance, she understands. without being here to bear witness, KING WAYLAND would find no closure. so she curs her own bloodlust, and lyune's, and shakes out the dragon's wings. "i'll be going then. i'm sure the league can handle the stragglers."
