Laughter tumbled from her lips, still she did not have much else to say to the spies. "Just follow my lead." Her blue eyes looked over the Marsh, while she and Seele were away it would have to be protected. Her mind went back to the honest ones that had appeared in the meeting. With a smirk the Empress raised her voice to the sky. "Oxy!" then with another thought her voice was raised again. "Vulture!" Waiting for the two gentlemen to arrive, The Blood Empress quickly thought out a plan to make sure the Marsh was left in capable hands. The only one she truly thought could handle the mad men while she was away was Oxy. His harsh words, rudeness and drug crazed mind made him a perfectly acceptable leader in her place. Then there was Vulture. She still didn't trust the worm in the slightest, in fact his mere presence still frustrated her beyond belief. There was no way he would be left to watch over the herd while she was gone, instead he would get his chance to prove himself a different way. Vulture would escort them over to the meeting, keep them safe while they crossed Helovia. Then he would stand silent like a good little guard dog, The Empress would watch his every move, she would give him one chance to prove himself.

"Oxy." Her blue eyes were bright. "You have command until I return, no one touches our members, no one enters our land." She hoped to the gods that he was capable of doing this task. "If there is a problem send someone over to me, preferably someone who can look after themselves." The last thing Eris needed was a member of hers dying before being able to deliver a message. "Agrona or Arlo are your council. Listen to their words...a good leader always listens." Eris knew that not many could lead as well as she could, but hopefully Oxy would get a taste of what she did everyday. Maybe that would help him quit his bitching. "Look after our family Oxy and for gods sake, don't fuck this up." Eris would kill him if he let her down. The promise wasn't hidden in her words, it was written all over her face, it was promised in her harsh stare. Now she turned to Vulture. The worm, her frown and cold stare bore into his eyes. She wasn't angry with him anymore, now Eris just wished that she didn't have to deal with him. "Vulture." A sigh tumbled from her chops and she looks him over. "You are our guard, you will escort us across Helovia to this meeting." The worm wanted to prove himself, there was no better way to do it than dying for his queen. "I do not want you to participate in the meeting, you are to watch our back and make sure no sabotage is planned." The Empress doubted it but if Vulture was on his guard then hopefully nothing would sneak up on him.

One last look over the Marsh, a small smile and then The Empress turned back to her party. "Come then my doves, it's time we flew."

Super quick post. I assumed that both Oxy and Vulture appeared so I can move Eris on to the next thread, I hope you both don't mind. If you do let me know and I'll change my post. <3
@[Oxy] @[Vulture]

Wake me up inside,
Bid my blood to run,
Before I come undone,
Save me from the nothing I've become.
