Aleksandra watched all of them interact, it reminded her of her days back at court. There were always layers to so many of the conversations they had there. Who was in bed with whom, who wanted something from someone else. There was only one difference really, this felt covert, but friendly. The Captain released them from their bonds and she rubbed her wrists thankfully. She tried her best to stay alert as they left that room and headed to Lady Kaya's home.<br/><br/>Once they arrived and Kaya gave her instructions, Aleksandra held up her hands in pure agreement, this was not the first time she had visited another dignitary, and for now, she hoped it would not be the last. It was strange also to see the change in Maleki now that the was 'home.' He seemed more relaxed here and even happy among his old friends. Kaya rolled a single eye at his teasing.<br/><br/>"Have a bath, yes? You smell worse than my horses..." Kaya chided him, pinching her nose for full effect as she turned and headed toward her own room. "I can still smell it!" She added for good measure.<br/><br/>Tommen actually looked excited at the prospect of a bed and bathroom and he immediately picked the room at the end of the three in front of them, barely paying attention to Maleki and Aleksandra. Once he was firmly inside, she turned back to her companion. She reached for the door in front of her and gestured for him to follow her in. "You said we would talk more when we had a room to do so in. Seems like we have that opportunity."<br/><br/>It was strange how this change of scenery had somewhat changed their roles. He had been dark and brooding, but after explaining her situation to everyone, she felt like it was her turn to take up that character. So much of her time was spent pushing those thoughts from her head so she could move solidly forward.<br/><br/>"From what you've said and that exchange back there...Are you a spy for them? Or just a scapegoat? I can understand that sort of move, it's a good one. But you had the Duke and his puppet leader, why would you need an additional outlaw?"
