Czarina?

Not that Isopia was the type to offer outward expressions of her internal states, but if you looked closely, you could see her brows knit together slightly, and a small puff of air escape her lips in a way that suggested some sort of mild frustration. In truth, Isopia could decide if she liked being address by her real name (her secret name, that she wished no one knew), or her new title as a leader. Being called Isopia felt as though something personal was being violated. Being called Czarina usually meant that someone was going to ask her for something. Or, in light of recent things, to blame her for something.

Turning, the quad-horned mare was surprised to see a rather appealing looking unicorn stallion moving her direction, led by two foxes. >>No, fox and kitsune<< Hubris corrected. From his position, he could see the multiple tails of the paler of the two foxes, and mentally showed this image to his bonded as justification.

Isopia's golden eyes stared wonderingly as Sacre confirmed that yes, she was the Czarina he had been referring to. Almost skeptically, she waited for him to levy some charge against her (he was from the Edge of course, and it wouldn't surprise her at all if he had something to say about the recent events concerning the stolen bags). But when he asked if she was well, and the inquired about her reasons for being up here (presumably this was just small talk), the Mountain was slightly taken aback.

"Well enough." She answered vaguely, still wondering if there was some context she wasn't understanding. Well enough to fight again? she wondered. Was there something more she owed the Edge? Some follow up to the challenge? Was that why he was asking about her location?

Annoyed with Isopia's state of mind, Hubris left from his position and glided towards the two foxes. A toothy grin was plastered on his bronzey features, and he angled his descent at quite a distance from the pair, not wanting to seem intimidating. He hadn't participated in the challenge after all, but perhaps they still thought him a thread. With a trill of greeting, Hubris waved his clawed hands, looking back and forth between the duo with a happy sea-blue stare.

Remembering something Zero had asked her, something that she didn't know the answer to, Isopia suddenly voiced this thought ( as opposed to perhaps asking Sacre how he was, or what he was doing up here). "How long have you lived in the Edge? Did you live there before the Invasion?"

Should I know you?
