Essarae shoved Aeron, "I smell like roses!" She growled, as they made their way into the great hall. Her statement echoed off of the decorated walls. She hadn't expected everyone to already be set, eating. The awkardness showed plain on the Princess' face.

"Good morning, mother." Essar bowed, raising and acknowledging Kona next, "Lady Kona."

Essa took her seat, next to her mother. Aeron's permanent seat was situated next to her. The two had been friends since childhood. After the passing of her father, the King, the Queen accepted his position as guard and best friend within her daughter's life.

The princess dug into a platter of fruit before her, as her mother stood from her chair.

"I've an announcement." She folded her hands before her, but before she could begin, a crow's call came from the eastern window. The queen looked up, and noticed it to be the Xanan carrier. Imizael raised her hand, granting the bird permission for access. He landed gently on her hand, and she removed the letter. She quickly broke the seal, and read over its' contents.

It was obvious to the people before her where the letter had arrived from, with the Xanan seal on its' front. She set the letter upon the table, and again addressed her party.

"It has been decided to cease war against the Drow. I will be making arrangements to meet and discuss the ins and outs of this peace with their Queen Rebecca. No one is to attack any Drow seen or approached on or outside of the grounds, as of this moment." Imizael sat back down, and sipped her wine.

Though usually, Imizael was one for discussion and delegation, it appeared as if she had already made her mind up regarding this situation. Kona was to be just as surprised as the rest, being her usual council advisor as the Mage of Felia.
