Summer
The summer season has finally reached its peak. The sunshine is plentiful, the days are long and the air is hot and humid - but the evenings do not seem to provide the same relief that they once had, and remain somewhat stuffy. Thunderstorms have also began appearing more frequently, particularly in the rainforest and eastern region, though the rain is welcomed after a relatively dry season thus far.

It was true, that Ecrosia was on the cautious side of things when it came to the Hollow but Juliette was not deterred by attempting to recruit @Theodosia just because of that. Sometimes all it took was one member of a significant standing to go to a less than friendly pride to make them try and see eye to eye. Perhaps not allies or friends, but at the very least neutral. Just because it was tenuous didn't mean it wasn't possible. So this High Sovereign of Ecrosia Mire here whose daughter was the one being recruited, she felt hopeful that she might have a chance. It wasn't as though he had said anything distasteful about the Hollow (unbeknownst to her he had felt the distaste internally).
Plus, it would seem that she was learning things about the prides that she hadn't joined initially. Such as the fact that Caladan King didn't keep prisoners, which was something she hoped would never change because it was a tactic most didn't give the option of. Though, she had to force her attention back to the one to be recruited, hoping to gather interest. The Hollows' is led by Alexander Savante, though I am certain he will have other leaders beside him soon. It was still somewhat newly formed from the information that she had gathered and been told of but the family had their reasons for not immediately appointing someone. I am a recent join myself within the last month and not of the Savante family, but I like to think that is what makes it better. To be a link to solidarity so that those joining know that they can always come to me and I will not turn them away. Juliette might be a wolf in sheep's clothing in some aspects but she was still a Valour and that would always mean something to her. Her blood ran thick in that regard and she would help a stranger no matter if she knew it was impossible or deadly.

Ah. The Gentry thought quietly as it was revealed that @Alaric was the rogue's father. Curious that she wasn't immediately opting to go to Ecrosia but he supposed she was old enough to make her own decisions and he wasn't forcing her. Just as he wouldn't force his own children to be in the Summit with him.
Though, he was a bit surprised to hear that the Ecrosian King wasn't entirely opposed to the idea of her going with him to the Summit, either. Yes they would most certainly be on opposite sides but their leaders would not require her to fight should @Theodosia not wish to and there were plenty of lions capable of defending her theft should anything happen to her. Jafar wished he could offer (in kindness) to Alaric to be the first to step up should anyone come like that for her, but he also knew that he had his own nearly yearling children that he would protect first.
The Summit is quite the fortress and inclusive. Our High Sovereign has defended her title many times over now since the pride's formation. Should you request the desire to leave, they will not keep you from doing so. They were all women, after all, and being kept against your will is the way best way to ruin a pride from the inside out like a bad disease. It was why the pride didn't keep prisoners because they had no need for unwilling guests.

With what looked to be a choice made (or choice to be stewed over), Juliette decided that it was likely best to vanish to move further into the passage. She did what she could to give a neutral smile to those that were present, specifically the discovery of Alaric and Theodosia who were father and daughter. Keeping that knowledge close to her in case she might stumble across either of them again. Then, of course, a newfound respect to the Cove's leader for expressing that held no prisoners or any lioness or child against their will. Provided, of course, that he expressed that life as a rogue was just as dangerous sometimes. Not that that was reason to keep anyone but always nice to give warning. So Juliette bowed her head and departed, knowing she wasn't necessary any longer. exit juliette
