"Seems she's waking up." Raudd said to his sister through the open doorway. "Just in time for tea then, I managed to get my hands on a very nice citrus melange." Zolya answered pulling the kettle off the boil pouring the hot water into a nice glass teapot with a tea infuser waiting in it.

As she grabbed enough cups for all those gathered to put on the carved wooden tray in front of her she heard some commotion form the other guest room, followed by her brother grumbling in annoyance. "Shit, now I'm gonna need to redo that wall." Zolya walked as fast as she could to the guest room without making a mess out of the tray she was carrying only to find the Templar somewhat sitting upright in the bed. "I thought you had her restrained with your barriers? How in the world did she get up?" She asked Alex, but before Zolya had even finished speaking something rattled the shutter like a sudden surge of high pressure just passed through followed by a remark from Raudd "Brute force." Even with the normal high saturation of indifference Zolya could sense the tiniest bit of annoyance and awe in the words of Raudd.

It was then that the Templar opened her mouth for the first time after her psychotic event. Maybe she had been expecting something more serious, but it seemed all expectations were misplaced with the words that followed. "Have you been waiting for a chance to say those words?" Zolya replied to the Templar garnering a bit of a puzzled look from Raudd. "But I'll have to disappoint you you're still in Titan's Fall, albeit you're below the plates superstructure." She said as she poured a cup of tea for all those in the room.

"So, what brings a Templar to this place? Though I can't imagine you voluntarily dropped down through the plates superstructure. there's better ways down." Raudd asked as he grabbed himself a cup of tea and a cookie from the tray.
