magnus may not have realized the weight that his inquiry held when he had asked it, but it sat upon nymeria's chest for a moment or two before she was able to gather a response. she could very easily spill forth more pleasantries and easy tales of prosperity, which were not untrue, but it would feel wrong to keep their troubles guarded behind a veil, especially after everything that they had been through. "vermeda is well, but it has been -- difficult." her voice caught slightly as she spoke now, albeit the fact that she was not afraid to let her walls down in the company of the sigrun king. he had been there, after all, and bore witness the the tragedy in the same way that she had -- it was the mere memory that the valour found to be the most jarring, prompting a small shake of her head, before continuing. "losing valhalla, and nearly losing my cousin, in the firnen war has been devastating." another honest admission, her eyes sweeping up towards dark features in an attempt to gage his complexion, or perhaps level with him in a more personal manner. they come from different worlds, that much was clear, but tragedy was tragedy, no matter where someone was from. "we will survive, as we always do, but i'm sure you know that life is rarely kind these days." nymeria offered finally with a weak and wry smile, before her eyes fell once more to the herbs at her feet, and continued to mash up a small salve beneath her heel.

Summer
With the last of the rainfall seeming to have swept across the peninsula, summer days await! The days are warm, though comfortable, and peeter off into more mild evenings while the humidity remains low. It is the perfect inbetween until things transition towards more sweltering temperatures, so best enjoy it while it is here.

SONG OF THE MOCKINGBIRD

she moved in unison with @Magnus as they are swept beyond the scillan borders -- a land which, though familiar from her childhood, seemed so extraordinarily different now. it held different meaning and different weight than the lagoon she had once known and loved. she loved it still, she supposed, but it was in a more nostalgic manner than anything else. nonetheless, the woman's ears swiveled to catch the king's words as they tumbled across the air between them, cupping the bundle of herbs close to her chest as they continued along the shoreline. "well then, i'm glad i came." she mused softly, gesturing for them to take refuge beneath the shade of a nearby palm. it would take her a moment or two to properly analyze his wounds and what would need the most immediate attention, and she did not see why they couldn't continue their conversation while she worked. "what's bothering you the most?" she would inquire before sweeping a glance across his figure, taking note of what she could see, before her attention settled upon his final, and perhaps heaviest, question.
