The size and structure of it impressed her. It truly looked mountainous, and would have been a welcome challenge to try and siege, had they been invading, of course. She much preferred her own castle and home, however, with its high spanning towers and rolling vista. Theiri’s castle seemed more of a mountain of rock with less elegance.<br/><br/>Upon reaching the gate, everyone dismounted. She swished her cloak futher over her shoulder, then gave the reigns of her horse to a stablehand, curtly requesting that he take excellent care of the royal family’s animals. She then called for her children to come before her.<br/><br/>Once Omar, Henrik, and Lenally stood by order of age, she placed her hands on her hips, chin held steady. “Now, my doves, we enter the lion’s den. I want to take this moment to remind you of who you are. You are Aserit royalty, but you are the offspring of my womb and your father’s seed. Your actions should reflect our status as well.”<br/><br/>She directed the last part more towards the direction of Lenally than anyone else.<br/>
