[partialities]

I ought to confess.

This little planet does unsettle me so and why, I cannot explain.

And yet, I have spent far too many days inside and so -

I do very dearly wish for an escort for a short walk outside.

Mayhaps I shall learn to love it, despite it all, we ought not insist on being unhappy, after all.

the place is unnerving, i agree. all manner of unusual things occupy that forest. i'd happily take a walk with you for some fresh air. kiter will want to accompany us. he does adore you so.

[partialities]

Have you been to the forest, my Lady? what manner of things? do assure me you will be safe, I shall worry for you so.

I have missed him very dearly and you, of course. We shall leave when you wish it.

[bryces_pup]

i have. it's full of strange creatures, and most of them quite large. much of the foliage reminds me of mushrooms and other such fungus. it's quite odd. but no worries, nothing terrible has befallen me so far, and i never go in without my sword.

i can be ready to leave within the hour, if you would like to leave that soon.

What manner of creatures? Were they much larger than the ones on the planet that required touch? I have found most of the animals there odd.

How kind of you, truly more gallant than any night. I shall be waiting.

[moonofmylife]

It's the same for me. I feel uneasy as well. One of my officers has gone missing recently, though my crew has decided that perhaps he has returend home. I still fear that this place is the cause. If you do venture out, please be careful.

[partialities]

How do they know that he was sent back to his home, your Grace? I have looked at the forest and it seems to be without end, mayhaps he lost his way.

[moonofmylife]

His name has been removed from the crew roster, as if he was never there from the first.

[Honestly it agonizes her that someone she cared for could be tossed aside so easily by the Atroma. Was it strange for her to be so upset by the inevitable?]

[ knock knock! ]

Margaery! Are you in?

[partialities]

I do trust no one else resides here but I.

[ fondly. she is on her bed, working on her needlework though her heart is not in it. she has been doing such work for days. Margaery is not a creature happy with being indoors. All roses are fond of clear air and sun, after all ]

You may come in.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ She comes and sits next to her on the bed ]

I saw your text post. I'll go down with you if you want?

[greywater]

We may be unacquainted, but I have been to the surface. If no one has offered.

text

[partialities]

A fine way to become acquainted, is it not? How have you found the surface? The forest seemed so dark and endless to me when I looked upon it, have you ventured inside?

text

[greywater]

Just enough to try and forage for food.

I haven't yet been below to the forests.

I should like to see it, if you wouldn't mind my company? I know we haven't been introduced. My name is Jeyne.

text

[partialities]

You are well-met, Jeyne. I am Margaery Tyrell. I admit, I am have never ventured into such a forest but we could make an adventure of it and not walk too far.

It would be a sweet little expedition, I trust.

[widow_of_the_crag]

Margaery Tyrell? Of the Reach? Renly's queen?

[She's more than a little awed.]

I'm Jeyne Westerling of the Crag. I'm honored to meet you.

[There had been stories about Margaery's beauty and kindness, even among the Lannister bannermen.]

I would love that. I would offer to bring something for us to eat, but I'm not so certain how well the strange paste keeps.

Where should we meet?

[precedented]

My lady has only to ask.

[ text ]

[partialities]

And now she has - for the honour of your company, it has been far too long, my Lord.

Have you been well? What do you think of this odd little world?

Re: [ text ]

[precedented]

It certainly has its mysteries, though I'm sure the Fleet will work hard on decrypting them.

Text

[complicatedliar]

Then it is likely you have some sensitivity to energies, if you find yourself so unsettled.

[Interesting.]

Text

[partialities]

I do so dearly wish that I were. I am unsettled only as I have ventured for fresh air only ones at night some days ago.

There was a shadow over the forest, a terrifying beast, have you seen it?

Re: Text

[complicatedliar]

Ah, yes. That, I have seen. Harmless, really.

[steeledskin]

Be careful, please. I do not like the look of the forests.

private text.

[partialities]

I shall not venture too far, I promise.

I have seen a terrible shadow loom over it, at night. It was a demon if I have ever seen one.

[steeledskin]

All the more reason not to go.
