The slave that knew his place was a good one. He should be seen and not heard, should never expect to be acknowledged. He should answer to his master, and to his master only. He should await their orders, never glancing to another for leadership, never pricking his auds in the direction of another's voice. His duties were to his master alone. Psyche was pleased that this one seemed to know his place, staring submissively at the ground, not even twitching. It seemed that her daughter had good taste, and she felt a bud of pride grow in her breast. She had raised Sno well, regardless of the disdain with which the youngling now watched her mother. Psyche would have to remind her offspring who was boss sooner of later, but for the time being, she let her attitude slide.

The name of the slave was heard and tossed aside; it would do her no good, and she had no use to file the name away in her memory. It was enough to recognize his look and his scent, and to associate these things with the ice princess. This she did without realizing; in the future, she would recognize the slave, but only insofar as a part of her daughter. "My dear, what would I possibly want with your slave? If you have taken him as yours, then he is yours." She would not waste her time on such trivial matters, as these words were all that she would offer to her daughter in the way of assurance.

The mechanical creature accompanying Sno abruptly gained Psyche's attention. Orange orbs looked it over with interest. Sno had been rather busy, it seemed. That warm glow of pride in Psyche grew, blossoming into a small flame. She had been hard at work, and it had definitely paid off. "Your father," she said, rapidly breaking eye contact with Sno's companion and responding to her question, "is off somewhere on the Steppe. If you would like to accompany me to the remainder of the herd, you are welcome to await his return there." In truth, Psyche was unsure of the FrosthHeart's whereabouts, but she wouldn't mind a chance to talk to Sno about her future.
