She was beginning to show. It was enough to send fear through the just turned woman. Her life had been so short, so full of promise, and before much could be done she had decided to be foolish, to mess around with a man she had just met, and now was going to have a child. She had grown insecure; had locked herself away in her own spot within the Edge to make sure no one would notice. If anyone were to actually look at her, they would assume she was simply putting on weight, perhaps gaining a larger appetite. The mood swings hadn't come in yet, the telltale bulge of child was not too evident as of it, yet for Myrrine it was like a spotlight was on her spotted flank. If anything they managed to hide it a little bit more, hopefully a little longer, so that no one would find out.
Her fellow Philosopher had found her, causing her to jump at her first words. Once realizing what she was asking she smiled, quietly nodding her head and following behind her calmly, trying to not make her presence known. She had been silent the entire journey, something entirely foreign of bubbly Myrrine, yet she was friendly and kind nonetheless. Once they arrived, she was ready to speak and make their presence known, only to find someone had found them before they could find them. She was brisk in her tone, obviously guarded to protect her homelands, and funny enough the creature swelling in her own stomach. Seeing the obvious signs, the butterfly girl mentally flinched; fearing that was how she would look as the baby grew. She wanted this pregnancy to be as low key as possible, not wanting anyone to know except for most likely Mauja. Even telling the father was something she utterly feared. All of this was an internal war within her mind, questions and concerns flooding her mind and threatening to spill over. Taking a deep, gentle breath, she offered the most gentle (albeit very tired) smile, dipping her head ever so graciously to the black beauty, before finally answering her.
" Forgive us Miss Sialia for the intrusion. We're simply here on behalf of the Edge. We were given orders by the King to seek the other herds and to learn about their way of life. My name is Myrrine, it is a pleasure to meet you!" she spoke sweetly, evenly and with a polite expression on her complexion. She let her head lift lightly, to watch her with confidence yet with an air of respect for the woman in her own home. A cool breeze fell upon her wings, causing them to flutter and for her body to slightly shiver. Despite the winter being somewhat cold, it had never been too bad in the Edge. Up North however, where the wind howled and the snow never seemed to cease, the cold was bitter, and quite unwelcoming. It was enough to make Myrrine shiver even through her cloak. She attempted wrapping it better around herself, but it didn't do much.
She looked to her herd mate quietly, pleasantly, wondering if she would have anything to add. She didn't want to do all the talking if the mare wanted a say, but she also had no qualms with simply speaking on behalf of both of them. It all depended on if the mare was alright with them still being here, if she was even willing to tell the story of the Basin, or if they would be sent away as easily as they had been greeted.
OOC: Forgive it for being so bad. I intend on Myrrine trying to grab a cold stone too from around here for her quest if that's alright <3
