Although she was peacefully being led to Hyperborean, it was quite a shock to the palace staff. Word spread very quickly that Queen Nyx had arrived at the castle, which caused far more chaos in the halls near Hyperborean. He noticed the uptick in activity, wondering what could have caused it. He stood up to start walking towards one of the halls, before a servant ran out to him, stopping him. 

*"Sir! Queen Nyx is on her way here! Please stay here!"* 

He paused in his tracks, snapping his gaze at the servant that stopped him. With his ears flattened, he flicked his hand to dismiss them. That was... Unexpected. He was more so expecting an invitation to her palace, or just a few angry letters. Not her appearing at *His* Palace. In his kingdom. Perhaps the only Night'Wing he would ever allow to stay on his lands longer than a few days. He then walked to the moon globe tree, staring into one of the globes, before preparing for Nyx to arrive. He sat down on the small layer of snow, his tail curled around him and his wings tucked in neatly. He would at least appear presentable to her, but he needed to get rid of the smug smile on his face. It took a few minutes, but he managed to get rid of most of the smugness off of his face. As he waited, his scales glittered in the light of the moon globes, the blackness on his spikes clear as day.
Wendy
The Queen had her spear at her side but didn't appear hostile. She instead appeared very neutral, unreadable. Her icy blue gaze tore through any Icewing brave enough to look her in the eyes as she was led into the depths of the palace. She wore no coat, no protection from the elements but still didn't seem phased in the slightest. As she walked the palace halls you could hear the *Tick, tick, tick* Of her spear hitting the ice while her nails barely made a few clacks against the cold floor. 

She silently took in the beauty of the palace, noticing all the shades and variations of blue. Once the halls widened and came to the moon globe tree she tilted her head up at it. The guards bowed and told her he was there and she merely blinked at them to show she understood. Nyx tipped her crown back up her head, letting it sit perfectly as she walked to the King. She walked in front of him and dipped her head lightly as she spoke evenly

"King Hyperborean."
She greeted, standing in front of him at last.
Kenneth
Imma respond tmw morning because im eepy and me thoughts not being very kind to me
Margaret
As he watched her enter the room, he upheld his posture, but gave a slight nod back to her to give her respect, since she was Royalty, but she was in *His* Castle. At least she didn't just barge in and try to look for him, but instead was guided to him. He let a small hiss out to let the guards know that they shouldn't stay so close to Nyx, before looking back at her. 

"Queen Nyx. What a strange time to find you here, in front of me. I assume I know what has brought you here, but you could've at least sent a letter ahead to warn me of your arrival. I could've gotten some supplies to accommodate you, since it is rather frigid this up north." He lifted up a few talons, tilting his head. He then ruffled his spikes, shaking his head. He turned his gaze away for a second to flick a talon at a nearby servant to bring in food and drinks, even with the strange meeting place. He once again turned his gaze to her, he seemed to sitting at the tree as if being somewhat defensive of it. It was a somewhat sacred place, at least in his opinion.
Wendy
When he nodded back she realized that he wasn't going to be difficult with her. There was a flick of her ear as he hissed and made the guards back away from her. She didn't tear her gaze from the king. There was no hostility in her eyes, but merely analyzation as she took a glance at her spear.

"Apologies for the intrustion as it may appear uncommon. Especially since I doubt many dragons would be willing to traverse your harsh weather. I don't need many accommodations however, we both know you just would want time to prepare."
She called out the fact he would have preferred to not have her here at all and ever so slightly tilted her head at his posture. Then she glanced up at the tree, not showing any signs of admiration other than the words she spoke
"Beautiful. I heard of this tree, yet this is the first time I am witnessing it."
Margaret
He flicked his tail, sweeping off some snow to the side. He was somewhat curious at the complete lack of emotions from her, and the fact that she hadn't demanded an explanation for his actions. Instead, was following what he was saying. He did expect her to get around to it, but he wouldn't push anything. He then stood up and walked towards the tree, lifting talons to touch one of the moon globes, letting the light spill over his scales. 

"Yes, not many outsiders get to see the moon globes. It was gifted to our species so of course we'd be a little bit more protective of it." He chuckled, drawing his talons back so he could sit back down. The light from the nearby moon globe made his scales glitter, the faint snowfall also being reflected by the light of the moon globes on the tree. The moon globe tree itself was beautiful, but the snowfall, at least in Hyperborean's opinion, made it far more beautiful.
Wendy
"Understandably so, it holds value from the long past. If I recall correctly that is. The detail really is perfect."
She hummed, letting her gaze soften ever so lightly at the display before her. Icewings were a proud tribe, keeping their values and traditions close to them even after all this time. As for her own tribe, they haven't had too terribly long to recover in certain aspects. Some reasoning leaked into her head that if she followed the King's path, her tribe may also flourish once more. Free of impurities, like pruning a diseased part of a tree. 

"I assume you are wondering why I am even here then. I won't waste your time of course. Simply put, I am not here to quarrel with you."
She gently set down her spear to further confirm that point as she walked up beside Hyperborean. She didn't meet his gaze but instead looked at the tree and the flurries of snow that cascaded down elegantly around the both of them. Her scales shined, glistening along with the very few jewels she had in her scales. Not to mention her crown. She let the silence hang over the two of them as she let him digest the words she spoke so calmly, yet that held enough weight on their own.
Margaret
He was about to respond to her first comment, before she continued speaking, his ears flattening with his expression turning into slight shock. He was taken aback, quite clearly so. Almost so much the blackness on the spikes on his neck almost faded entirely. He shuffled slightly as she came up next to him, unconsciously letting a small hiss escape him. His tail curled around him on the opposite side of Nyx, and the servant that had been sent for food and drinks paused at the sight. He gave them a cold, dark stare, and flicked his talons to dismiss them. They quickly left. He then looked over at her, her scales glittering just as pretty as his own. So strange. He then sighed, tilting his head. 
"Well then, if you're not here to... Discuss over why my actions are a hostile act towards your tribe, then what are you here for?" He seemed to be geuinely curious. He knew every other tribe here would be FURIOUS at his actions, but the one he expected was *Her* To be the most angriest. Yet... She was calm.
Wendy
She paid no mind to his behavior, not even looking at him as she spoke again. However after he asked her she turned to gaze at him before replying, almost matter of factly.
"I'm here to say I assumed as much from the beginning. Although I was waiting for you to act on it. At first I wasn't for the idea, however after more contemplation I realize how it can be a benefit for both of our tribes."

She looked back up to the scenery and remembered how her thoughts had turned over the course of her rein as Queen. Ever so slightly there was a hidden anger that seemed to rise, and thoughts that switched around from her origional ideas as a Queen. Even so, she still wanted what was best for her citizens and this seemed to be the best way to go to go about it and keep her tribe pure.
Margaret
He lifted his head up slightly, keeping his gaze on her at all times, watching her behavior. He still didn't fully trust her, after all this could've just been a ruse to get under his scales. He had a tense posture, which showed his distrust. He then finally broke his gaze to look at the sun, which was just barely below the horizon, which made the moon globe tree illuminate the surrounding area, including the both of them. 

"How come you managed to convince yourself that what I have done isn't- something that shouldn't be done? It might sound a little bit dumb, but why would this act be beneficial for your tribe? After all- our people have been trying to mingle, to ignore the past. But, in my opinion, we're never meant to be friends. Let alone have us two this close to each other. I believe the previous Queens have been trying to build better relationships, so why would you be different?" He muttered, barely voicing his opinion about how close she was to him. He was trying to make sure the palace staff didn't think she had any special things that he had with her. He only tolerated her here because she was the ruler of the Night'Wings.
Wendy
She let her shoulders shrug for a moment, realizing how many dragons would doubt her and her opinions. Well, both of their opinions now. She wouldn't let that get under her skin though. She was the only ruler they could possibly have, so what could they do to stop her? 

"My tribe had been stripped of our powers long ago, the cultures we once had were diminished greatly. Even though that has returned, I fear it may suffer again if precautions aren't taken. If I allow my dragons to intermingle more and more, what will become of our kingdom. Impurities. That's all there is to it. If this continues so much we may find hybrids taking thrones. The throne that is meant to represent the entire tribe. That is no place for hybrids, Hyperborean. Don't you agree?"
She asked darkly, narrowing her eyes as she flicked her tail. It wasn't meant to be a threat, but to show she wasn't taking the situation lightly.
Margaret
He seemed to be quite intruiged by what she was saying, since it was quite similar to his line of thinking. He hadn't been very vocal about his opinions outside of his castle, so he slowly began to lose the doubt that she was only trying to get under his scales. He started to believe she truly was on his side, no matter how strange it might've been. He took a deep breath, letting some frostbreath escape his maw as he sighed. 

"Well yes. I do believe that. Although our traditions have been mostly kept safe, with a few exceptions, I still am agreeing with the fact that there shouldn't be as many - as you state it 'impurities' - as there are now. The throne *Should* Represent the tribe." He nodded, turning his gaze from the sun to Nyx, his tail tapping the ground softly. The blackness of his spikes slowly began to seep once more, showing the trust he had in her.
Kenneth
Gonna be gettin some ✨sushi✨ soon so if i don't respond within like an hour of your response it's because of that.

Well like in a hour im going so
Wendy
She lightened her gaze at the kings response, comforted by the fact he didn't object to her. Even going as far as to agree with her line of reasoning was a surprise. 

She turned to meet his gaze, giving a little dip of head to show respect. 
"I'm glad we can reach an understanding. Although I doubt many of my subjects would like the notion. Especially since they would most likely flock to my kingdom for refuge, shame they will soon not find any."
She hummed, letting a slight smile creep up her snout as the thoughts of power made themselves known.
Margaret
"I agree. They will have to find shelter elsewhere, of course. That won't be my busniess. I only care if they are in my kingdom." He chuckled, standing up and walking towards the base of the tree, walking around it for a few moments before sitting down a couple feet away from Nyx, his tail curling up around him once more. He rattled his spikes, shaking his head, before lifting his head up to meet Nyx's gaze. 

"Well, now that's all cleared up, I'm more than happy to accommodate you for however long you plan to stay, if at all. After all, as I have mentioned before, it is very cold this up north." He dipped his head down slightly, before lifting it back up, a small smile on his face.
Wendy
The chill in the air didn't phase Nyx at all still. Even though she wasn't wearing any protection or shivering she sat comfortably, watching Hyperborean walk around the tree. 

As the snow covered her talons she shook them. 
"I don't plan to stay for long, maybe the night if you would allow." 
She requested politely, seeing as she traversed the skies on her own almost without stopping. 
"I flew here in my own, just my spear for defense. I am not helpless, and I did not want any nightwing guards to question me along the way."
She explained smoothly
Margaret
He flicked his tongue, mumbling under his breath as he seemed to be thinking to himself for a few moments. He then lifted his gaze back up, shuffling his wings. 

"You can stay the night, and leave early tomorrow morning. Not many staff members are here at this time, or awake. It would be... Quite the shock to see a Night'Wing in the palace, even if she was the Queen. I hope you understand." He lifted up a few talons, brushing some snow off of his shoulders. He seemed to love the snow on himself, it kept him nice and cold.
Wendy
She gave a nod, looking down at her spear and picking it up carefully, brushing off the snow that had accumulated.

"Yes, I understand. I thank you for your hospitality on such short notice."
She replied, letting out a sigh as her breath appeared in the air. She squinted at it before taking another glance at the tree. 
"I find it refreshing to find a dragon who can share the same ideal for the bettering of our tribes."
She added.
Margaret
"Not many share these opinions nowadays, so having another ruler on your side definitely helps." He chuckled, before flicking his tail. He then looked over to a servant that had been watching, making them pause before realizing Hyperborean just wanted them over. 

"If you would be escorted, they will be more than willing to escort to your quarters for the night. I do not assume you'll sleep, but there will be a bed provided either way. And if you need any food or as such, just ask. They'll bring whatever is needed." The servant stood next to him, clearly anxious, and was being towered by Hyperborean.
Wendy
"Yes, I don't blame them. Then at the same time I do. It's just easier to throw out a rule or belief like that. However, it shouldn't be allowed to go further."
She agreed, looking at the servant he gestured to curiously.

"Thank you, King Hyperborean. I presume we will talk more at a later date?"
She asked with a slight raise of her brow. Her words were the equivalent of lending a talon to alliance. At the very least, comply and work together. Especially given the fact they seemed to share a similar vision.
