[The feed that comes over the communicators is untraceable. There's no name attached to it, no date, no timestamp - nothing that others may note on the broadcasts made by their fellows. Light, gentle music tinkles in the background along with the chirruping of birds and other wildlife

[beagabhainn]

An audience. Of course.

[sidherioghnach]

An Audience?

[She smiles.]

Speak, child. I am here.

[beagabhainn]

I wasn't given -

[Her voice stops. She knows the word, and yet it sits wrong with her, refuses to come out quietly and slip past her lips. It's wrong. It disturbs her.]

- a purpose, here.

[A little more demurely.]

I must have missed it.

[sidherioghnach]

You have a purpose, little one.

[akingmuststand]

Requests?

[Her voice is lovely and tempting and captivating and utterly unnerving because of it. It makes him uneasy, but such doesn't show - all that shows is his composed smile. She reminds him of the fae he encountered not long ago, with long nails like knives. Actually, she reminds him of many, many things.]

You have honoured us a great deal already, your Highness.

[video]

[sidherioghnach]

What a charmer you are.

[And her voice is fond, her laughter soft as she speaks.]

But surely you have a wish...? A desire?

[video]

[akingmuststand]

[He chuckles.]

None that I will not see fulfilled myself, your Highness.

[sidherioghnach]

[Her lips curve into another smile. This one shows more teeth, jagged and sharp - and then it suddenly does not. It flickers back to the gentle, indulgent smile. Each side flashes momentarily, like a tossed coin spinning in the air, and yet appears to be neither.]

A clever answer, your Highness.

[threebreaks]

You're the ruler of this place?

[audio]

[sidherioghnach]

I am the Queen of the Fae, yes.

[ audio ]

[forhyrule]

[ This couldn't be more suspicious if the Queen wore a sign around her neck saying, 'don't trust me.' Like a good Princess, Zelda keeps the suspicion from her voice and greets the Queen respectfully. ]

And Your Majesty is a most gracious host. It is an honor to make your acquaintance.

[ audio ]

[sidherioghnach]

And yours, Princess Zelda. I remember you when you were very small.

[ audio ]

[forhyrule]

Ah, I had all but forgotten that incident. I hope you will forgive a child's impetuousness, Your Highness.

[ audio ]

[sidherioghnach]

Of course.

[karazhan]

[Nonplussed.]

Paper, ink and some quills.

[sidherioghnach]

[Sweetly.]

Ask nicely.

[karazhan]

[Flashes a smile, but it's not the nicest or most sincere one.]

Please.

[sidherioghnach]

[She flashes her own smile. While not baring them, it seems to be all teeth.]

Mean it, dear.
