The feeling of Sresk's thighs against her back was comforting, and her head nestled against her bosom easily. She raised her fingers to stroke the backs of Sresk's hands as they settled around her shoulders.<br/><br/>"Feelings are funny things, aren't they?" she murmured. "Different from person to person, and race to race. The orcs who live near my old tribe, they're quick to anger, and slow to show affection or love. My son's father, he... he certainly doesn't love me, nor I him. He loves our son, though he never shows it around others. He says things like 'Our son must be strong like his father,' but he really means that he loves him, and that love keeps the peace between our tribes."<br/><br/>She took Sresk's hand and guided it gently to the curve of her breast, where a large tiger tattoo stood proudly, its claw curled around her nipple. "My people, the Tiger Lords, believe in strength above all. Armag Twice-Born rules through blood and violence. I was born into a smaller band of Tiger Lords that sought a different way, a way of peace and co-existence through empathy. It's harder than using violence. But we made it work, and that's what I want to spread with our new tribe." She laughed and trailed her fingertips along Sresk's nails, the ones that could so swiftly become deadly claws. "Of course, we're violent people. You, me, Grimaruk, even Muriel in her own way. We just have to use that violence the right way."<br/><br/>Sophia turned her head and kissed Sresk's arm. "Silvy's coven worried me, and her magic still does. I don't understand it. I know your magic is in your blood, and Grimaruk's comes from Arshea, and Muriel has her potions. Silvy's magic... is hard to understand. But it keeps us safe. She believes in this tribe, just as you and I do. We've built something good here, and I'm glad that you and she are both part of it."
