Despite the girl's odd mannerisms, there was something about her that resonated with Bryn. The bi-colored feline tried to tell herself that Thea simply reminded her of one of her many siblings, but the connection seemed deeper than that. There were strange powers at play here, and Bryn decided, in that moment, that she needed to be more heavily guarded than she previously thought. Familial feelings would be the death of her. "The journey was not difficult; I am a warrior. All of us - my family - are strong. I must have dozed off and then became separated from them," she murmured. She had never truly been alone before... "The Ascendants? Interesting. Hm, I should hope most of you do not bite, for I would hate to have to return the gesture."

As Warringkingdom's form crested the horizon, Brynhild performed a double take. The form of the elder tuxedo set her heart aflame; it looked just like her mother. The word almost dripped from her lips, but she caught herself. Rin did not smell of snow and mountains and war. She smelled of herbs and stars. Even so, Bryn refused to react despite the tightening of her chest. "Yes, that sounds fine. Please, lead the way. I would like to stay here until my family returns for me, if there is no problem with that. I should not be here for longer than a few nights, but all the same, room and board sounds magnificent." For the first time since arriving, the child offered the other a gentle, lopsided smile. It was best to be kind in these situations.
