Penny stood silently as she scanned the memorials. The sudden leaving of the warehouse wasn’t part of her original plans, but no plan remains intact for long in Penrose. Still, she had made sure to bring over everything that had been left behind due to her actions. And that included the memorials, as their weight of memories was worth more than ever now.

She was hardly the only girl here at the moment, but even with the small steady numbers that visited here normally, today was different. Sakura’s memorial was just put up, and while she kept her surprise at the sheer number that came to pay respect to the spunky yakuza, she was glad all over again that she had decided to make this space for them in the first place.

Though it hurt to realize that it would need expanding with the coming conflict.

She had talked with Dina about it more than once in the past few days. Once she had sat though what could only be considered a scolding that is. But now Sanctuary was ready to start making their mark on the face of the coming war. 

Speaking of which, Penny pulled up the text she, and if she was right, most of Penrose had received. The monarch had to give it to Lily, the sparky girl was never one to worry about the worst. Though in this instance Penny could hardly blame her. While the last meeting closed under bad circumstances, the introductions that had happened there on the periphery had more than paid dividends so far. 

So, who knows what this meeting could bring.

[color=9e0039][u][b]“Monica and Belladonna.”[/b][/u][/color] Penny would say, though her voice came out of the P.A. system running though the Bastion. [color=9e0039][u][b]“Meet me in hold three. It’s time to leave.”[/b][/u][/color] With a nod to the mourners who turned to regard her at that message Penny walked off.

Upon reaching her destination, she wasn’t entirely surprised to see that Dina, Goblina and Ashlyn had also arrived along side the two she had requested. [color=9e0039][u][b]“I take it you completed it then?”[/b][/u][/color] She’d ask with a raised brow.

“Indeed, though it hardly befits your status, it is better than nothing in these circumstances” Dina would reply as she gestured for Goblina to hand over the folded cloth in their hands. Upon which Penny would pick up to unfold a capelet.

It was a simple thing, fine gray silk with the simple heraldry for the Sanctuary on it. A circle with three diamonds in a vertical line running down the center of it.

Penny would run a hand over it before putting it on. This meeting was going to be rife with politics, even if not instantly apparent. It was as good a time as any to make this statement. [color=9e0039][u][b]“ Time to make an entrance then.”[/b][/u][/color] She would state. as she started to turn away.

[color=9e0039][u][b]“While we are out, it might be a good time to find another point for an entrance.”[/b][/u][/color] She’d add looking at Dina and Goblina, [color=9e0039][u][b]“The two we have right now are good, but a pair more wouldn’t be a miss either. Get the twins on it.”[/b][/u][/color] With that Penny would turn towards the wall.

Belladonna would stride up to Penny’s left. And Monica, once she was done hugging her goodbyes with Ashlyn would take up position on Penny’s right. And once the three of them were alone in the room the space just in front of the wall would shimmer before a portal would rip open. On the far side was the Park meeting.

Without any further delay The Queen of Penrose and her delegation would exit their home and join the rest of their contemporaries.

The Queen gave everyone present a simple glance, her reactions to anything kept hidden from obvious tells. But the way that Belladonna gave a sharp look at Chloe before a soft muttered ‘Understood my Queen’ meant that there was still a reaction to be had.
