Erin though about what Sanguine said an oddly serious mood coming over her. Since placing her feet on the path she was on not once had she wanted to turn back. Being a member of the Theiri court had been perfection until they realized her lie. Then she became a tool for the king and more over for the queen who could plot with the best of them.<br/><br/>With the kings failing health and the Queens sudden desire for a spy within the Aserit court Erin's life had taken on a whole new meaning. She'd always been careful to stay away from the bad things she'd never seriously hurt anyone though it was well within her skill to do so. She didn't feel things right and she knew it, could see it in other people, and so had always been careful so she wouldn't become a bad person, now with danger now wrapping it's arms around her life she needed to consider where she really wanted to go from here.<br/><br/>His finger tips sliding over her face startled her for a moment only because she hadn't been expecting it. She unlike many of the court had been around those less fortunate in life. She'd seen men without legs and woman missing an arm. It had been a child she knew who could see nothing but the dark who'd taught her how to throw a dagger with perfect aim every time.<br/><br/>He seemed fine with what he saw in her and in her nature she was curious but didn't bother him to ask. He didn't need to look like he knew her too well, Erin was popular for a moment a loathed in the long run, he was risking a lot offering her anything besides his compassion.<br/><br/>She'd been just finishing talking to a maid when the Gypsy came up to her. She smiled and bobbed a curtsy her bells jingling merrily as she did so when he asked for her help she nodded enthusiastically like a child looking at an idle would. She recognized the tune easily though it had been a long time and fell into step with him her agile graceful body finding the steps in time to the music. She laughed with delight and clapped in time as the steps became easier coming back to her and she smiled brilliantly at the Gypsy who'd chased away her sober thoughts.
