That rainy day, she had returned to Queen's Rest with the pair she'd sought shelter with — or should she say couple? Izumi could not tell, as the man was so hellbent on denying it, one would think he was still in the friendzone. Yet the chemistry between them was something painfully hard to ignore and her intuition never failed her. Alas, the status of their relationship was none of Izumi's business — but did that necessarily mean a woman couldn't be curious?
Speaking of said couple, she sought out Makara and Pasithea that morning. They had agreed to follow her back to the island, yet now there was the discussion of their roles within the Dynasty. A lot of which needed to be filled if the clan was to flow in functioning order.
It was Makara who she'd run into first, already wide awake by the looks of things. "Good morning, Makara." The Empress greeted, waltzing up to the sea faring man with purpose.
"I was just looking for you. We have a few things to discuss."
