Sikeax's words cause the mammoth man to shake his great head. "No, it is not your fault, Sikeax. It's Vadir, she's...." He desperately searches for the correct word. How to summarise the gleaming royal dragon above him? "Difficult." He glances upwards, still frowning. The golden queen is beautiful, she is savage and strong and willing to tear apart anybody who so much as blinks at her warlord bonded, and those traits are ones that Volterra admires, in a way. He enjoys her primal need to dominate all other dragons, but that doesn't mean he doesn't occasionally wish that she was....meeker. Easier to handle. It goes against his somewhat sexist beliefs to see that the female of the dragon species is so superior to her male kin, and he supposes that's a large part of the reason why seeing her desperately trying to put Vérzés in his place hurts him so much.

Before he can question the Sea Soul futher, he's made aware of another. It's Valdis, and the Indomitable's harsh features soften visibly as he moves towards her. "Valdis, drágám." His muzzle extends to softly touch her shoulder, whilst his ears spin around to pick up Sikeax's words. She wishes to rejoin? He's hard-pressed to keep the smile from reappearing across his mouth, even if there's a sudden twist of nerves in the pit of his stomach. Accepting the mare back will no doubt be an unpopular decision to those who condemned her - he's thinking Tae, Ampere, Aithniel, all detractors of the Sea Soul during her reign. Having Sikeax back amongst them, and the other untrusting members of the herd, might cause chaos - might cause them to remove some of their backing from Volterra for his decision.

That, though, only makes the beast set his jaw into a hard line, determination glowing through each ruby eye. Sikeax is his friend - if any question his decision to accept her back into the fold, they'll have the Indomitable to answer to.

"Igen, of course you may rejoin." He flashes the Sea Soul his toothiest, cheeriest grin. "Would you like to return to the ranks of the healers?" Then she'd be working beneath Astarot, his newly-appointed Sun Physician.

He looks at the little white dragon as Sikeax introduces her as Seoul. Compared to the pair of war-dragons battling in the skies, she's dreadfully small and probably not much use in a fight, but she's a pretty thing, just like her bonded. He huffs a greeting at her, although he knows better than to go and touch muzzles to her as he'd made the mistake of doing with his sister's black.
