Sable may as well have been a part of the wall for as much as she reacted outwardly to the events unfolding around her. She was not here to be a voice in the suggested courses of action. She was only here to defend. She still knew very little about this goddess but at least the conversation between Mia and Aslan, and now Aslan and the newcomer had filled her in slightly. Sable found herself wondering if it was truly a goddess, or merely some higher level of being hopped up on its own power. Not that it mattered. She did find herself becoming irritated when the king continued to press for names from the woman as she continued to offer what appeared to be help. Not that Sable didn't know the power a name could hold. All faerie knew that names held power, even names that were not True Names. Not that it had stopped her from keeping her own True Name a secret.
She was about to speak up and tell the king to drop the silly name business when the woman induced herself, allowing that she may be referred to as Kiki. This whole time Sable had felt the tension building within the queen. So many truths revealed to her in one day. It would have been better if she had been told young, she thought. At least then one can prepare themselves for their future instead of having it crash down upon them all in one day. All in one hour as the case seemed to be here. What Sable felt for the young woman was nothing short of sympathy, an emotion she did not feel often. On one level she did not blame her for fleeing the room as it was revealed that there were more secrets kept from her. On another level, however, she knew that things seemed to be centered on Queen Mia, and as such it was best that she be kept in the presence of others who would protect her.
It was true that the girl's guard followed after her, but indeed one guard, no matter how strong, was not going to be a match for a being known as a goddess, for whether or not the being was truly divine it must have had the strength to convince mortal beings that it was. Sable gritted her teeth disapprovingly. In these short moments she had learned something she had suspected since being assigned to the king. She was not needed to protect him. It was a formality. That girl needed protecting. Unfortunately Sable's attention was more firmly caught by the prospect of the king's experiments and some secret that might help against the "goddess" which Mia was not to see. Could this secret have something more to do with the alchemy that so intrigued Sable? Would she finally be able to witness a bit of why she had volunteered to guard the king in the first place?
