“I.. i’m sorry, Rosalia would be baroness Regulas mother..” Aria would look down as she continued speaking, pulling words she hadn’t really expressed before to anyone. “..kind, would surely be an understatement miss Amanda. I'm certain you'll meet her soon. Rosalia is truly one like no other.” Aria wasn’t much for showing any of the softer emotions expressed by people, as much as she wanted to hide behind the betrayals of her life, and the ill encounters with her so called 'real' family, the sword maiden found herself opening up to this woman.
A series of memories and thoughts that came into her mind like visions were suddenly interrupted by the scrolls that were suddenly placed in her hands. Aria gasped as her gloved hands came out infront of her, catching the hastily given parchments and holding them close. She observed a bit confused at the advisor in between the scrolls loosely covering her sight.
What Amanda said next would ring so true to Aria, she’d almost think she was describing her as she nearly dropped the scrolls due to the surprise, “Are you really-“ She began as she arranged the scrolls to better hold them. “..I mean.. i am also of commoner upgringing, just west of here is a town named Highgrove village. I..” She looked away with a slight shrug. “..well, truthfully, i used to be a bartender.” Giving back the scrolls, she continued, a bit hesitant as the conversation was clearly now delving out of the professional realm of conversation, “If i may speak freely.. i too desire a better life and a future for the commoner, its why i decided to embark upon this seemingly infinite journey, however before it became known that lady Regula would be baroness it appeared we were making progress only to lose any advantage we gained shortly after.”
The familiar sound of training and rigurous expenditure of energy could be heard as they somehow luckily had found the others. Perhaps it was intuition. Yet as they approached, Amanda asked Aria out on a dinner date. However Aria wouldn’t see it as that, considering her favorite topic was brought up, it would effectively disguise the request as a simple excuse to discuss tactical matters. “Dinner? Hmm. Yes, of course miss Amanda, I'd like that." Her eyes would light up as a smile softly formed upon her lips, "So, you do know about tactical matters." Part of her wanted to inquire about why she attempted to keep it a secret before.
When they finally arrived with the others, Aria quickly regained her stern and disciplined composure. Standing next to Regula she began, “M’lady, i apolagize for our delay, miss Amanda as you so wished it.” Aria bowed her head quickly, “We seem to have-“ Aria would suddenly notice Rosalia, taking a step back with near disbelief, but only briefly. It was then that the marshal struggled to calculate just how much of her disciplined demeanor she’d forsake. Especially around so many other important figures, then Ethel came into sight and she was suddenly in quite the predicament.
“R-Rosalia..” she said as she came closer, “..you’re here! I mean, of course. I’m.. happy you’re here.” Aria’s orbs would flicker towards the others around, before nodding, “You are most welcomed.”
