Queen Vivienne Saffell Stars

Vivienne listened to there comments, from Sorrel's concerns from his his inexperience, Alexiss' inability to touch the seas, and Reeds' confidence in his navy. Keeping her peace while they talked Vivienne nodded to her daughter upon entrance and just quietly smothered a laugh. Everything was going to be fine, everything was covered from resources, land, seas, men and such forth. She built these lands once upon a time, traveling to and from the lands, talking and consulting with the people's needs. Vivienne didn't stay queen by being idle, she was queen because she loved bringing joy, freedom, and life to her people. Yes, this war may sound like a conflict of that interest only as an old Admiral of hers once said "There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people." the people are now becoming the enemies. The kings rule does not allow a steady hand to help it's people it simply allows the people to learn from there own mistakes (if that instead of offering its previous knowledge.

Moving away from those thoughts and back to the matter at hand Vivienne finally made her comments. Prince Sorrel, you are right indeed, every action must be taken into account. Noting can be sparred to chance, we have little allies and I know the king is not opposed to "playing dirty" as it's called. Those without an allegiance will be tempted and swayed to join the kings side or to doubt my rule. For the moment, I will place my trust in the bloodlines I have put in charge and I believe that it is best if we don't sway them but protect them. As of now, we try to shelter them from the worst of the new rumors, after all our people are ones with their own individual ideas and opinions they should be able to filter out lies from truth judging by our actions. As such, we are not to start any unsavory talk, this war is one of morality and principle. If we lose ours we've lost the war. As such Prince Sorrel, I place my trust in you to act as our public relations liaison, should you chose to accept said position. Judging by how you don't rush into choices and take deliberate time into making decisions I trust that you will be well suited for that job. Of course, fell free to ask for help or consultation, when needed."

Taking a moment for that news to sink in Vivienne set out for a glass of water and took a small sip. After a moment she continued on. "Princess Alexis, you have mentioned that you may provided the military, evidently I do have one myself and I was wondering about you're person opinion on the idea of Princess Zari. Personally, I would prefer not to hire her services. Having a mercenary is nothing but trouble, with no trust nor allegiance it becomes difficult to act around them. Mercenaries make excellent spies, for once you pay them a hefty sun you believe you have their allegiance when in fact you're enemy is paying them a crown more and the next thing one may know is a knife in one's back. If you believe we require Zari's forces to even out the field then I have no qualms paying them, however if you believe otherwise I would prefer to write them off as against us, thus knowing the definite allegiance. Also, due to your expansive knowledge, would you mind being tasked with the general land troop. By so I mean would you accept the position general of the army? Understandably this is a large request so please take time consider the position before making choices."

Finally looking to Reed Vivienne smiled once again and replied. "I owe you my thanks, the seas are among one of the assets we ought to remain in control of, as such these are your forces. Men and women who joined the navel feet under you're guidance not mine, and I would appreciate it if you were my feet admiral. Much like Princess Alexis, I understand that this may be a large request and I encourage you to think it over.

Moving a bit back as to give space, Queen Vivienne realized that she's given them more than enough to ponder on. Right when she was about to give a dismissal for the rest of the evening and inform them that rooms have been prepared should they wish to spend a while here, Vivienne was stopped by Princess Alexis talking with her daughter about that worrisome science. Vivienne had no qualms about alchemy, in fact she found it nothing short of wonderful. Only as it was her daughter dabbling in the science, like any good mother she was concerned but trusted Rose to take care of herself. God forbid anything happen to her... the fleeting thought was enough that Vivienne had to suppress a shiver. Ignoring the irrational fear for the moment Vivienne distracted herself by addressing Rose's wonderful news. "Thank you love for asking them on my behalf. I truly am thankful for asking when I was pre-occupied, if you could keep me updated on said front I would be much obliged." Ending her short request to Rose, Vivienne gave a soft smile reserved purely for her darling girl. Turning to everyone else Vivienne spoke once again as she said "Thank you all for coming to my aid. I've made a room for all of you should you wish to spend the night. As I understand I have given you all enough to consider for the night, shall any of you need anything or should you all come to the consensus to talk more about about the upcoming war, feel free to interrupt whatever it may be that I'm doing to talk with about things. As for now please consider my positions I've offered all of you."
