To think that such a young child could be so eager for such a task was, admittedly for Amelia, disturbing. She wondered if Oriana truly understood the significance and rigors of her position, her powers, and, worst of all, if she understood how others would see her position. She was also more than a little concerned with her obsession for Octavian - even that oaf of a soothsayer could see it. While Amelia did not frown upon and even admired loyalty, such was her own loyalty to the father Odin, her devotion was... troubling. 

Noticing that Kara and Godelvia were getting to know each other better, she decided that it would be best if she were to speak to Oriana so that she would at least feel included. Isolation could be dangerous for the mind, no matter how old or mature. 

"That's reassuring." she smiled. "I'm sure Wolfy can warn us if anything tries to sneak on board, while our ravens can take a look at the general area for more obvious dangers. Like Pirates and other such dangers."

The statements this Roman Priestess made about playing with a lot of people of whom she didn't even know their name was even more distressing to Amelia. A Valkyrie who was more in tune with human thought than most of her fellow maidens, she had a quiet inkling that this was most definitely not a healthy way for a child to form relations. 

Well, she would have to change that. 

"Well, I would be delighted to be friends with you. I am Amelia; it is an honor to meet you Oriana." 

A name was a start, at least.
