PriyaTheComingOfAFleetPriya the Coming of a Fleet"I don't recognize the colors, which unfortunately isn't saying much," Dagny says. "They are armed though. Yes, let's notify the rest of the family then head down ourselves." She heads towards the door, with intent of sending the first servant she sees after one of her senior relatives, with news of the flotilla. "I think" Ostegos observes wryly, looking to Priya "that she still thinks you are part of the Royal Family." "Do you think Rebma knows of this mysterious fleet?" he adds, waiting for Priya to follow Dagny, or not. Priya gave a short shake of her head, shoulder drawing upward. Someone might, but she wasn't one of them. Dagny looks at Ostegos oddly. "No, she does not. When I said 'the rest of the family' I meant 'the rest of the family other than me.' I'll endeavor to speak more precisely next time." She turns from him. "I will be right behind you. Going to try something with our new arrangement, but time should not be lost, in case we are unable to learn more." Priya nodded to Dagny, pausing for any last discussion before she tapped into the data stream and turned her focus toward the incoming ships. "Certainly. I'll meet you downstairs." With that, Dagny exits the roof. Priya gave a quick nod, and turned toward the sea, while her gaze turned inward, concentrating. "I get the feeling I say the wrong things around the Princess." Ostegos says. "She reminds me of one of the other you's cousins in that regard." "Different manners of speaking..." Priya murmured. "More familiarity would ease that." "Yes" Ostegos agrees. Does Priya recognize the ships or colors? With shifting, she should be able to see that far. Can she, Varuna and Ykanga pick anything out about the ships from the data from the djinn Certainly Priya can shift her eyes to see the ships and colors. And given her position and knowledge, she is confident that she would pick out most naval colors and arrangements from the Golden Circle treaty shadows, and other shadows in the vicinity. These ships do not match any designs she knows. Turning to her new source of information, Varuna reports that the artillery on the ships definitely has an arcane elemental aspect to the ammunition, and possibly the launchers themselves. There does not appear to be any other magic large scale enough to be noticed. Priya scowled at the artillery, wondering how far the shells could reach from the harbor. If it were her... she wouldn't bother if she couldn't hit the castle. "A party like this is clearly here for some sort of show of force." Ostegos says. "But who, and why?" "I do not know, but we should be quick to find out." Priya turned sharply on her heel and hurried after Dagny. Ostegos is hot on Priya's heels. Heading off of the roof and down the stairs, Dagny has in fact not gotten very far. She is only a few corridors away from the roof entrance. The Amberite Prince Gerard is talking with her and has just turned on his heels, encouraging Dagny to walk with him somewhere. Backlinks |
