There was a time when Lorelai would have been happy to awake to three square meals a day and endless patrols astride Durgan, a simpler time where she couldn't even conceive of corruption within the Imperium. A time where all the Knights of the Order of Ragnarok where seen as shining beacons of the Imperium's greatness that all should aspire to emulate, the Knight Asgard most of all. Things were easy and didn't leave her wanting to strangle her comrades-in-arms out of abject paranoia that they may have been complicit in Yggdrasil or the Jester's plotting. 

But the luxury of ignorance and the innocence it conferred was no longer available to her. And if she were completely honest with herself, she wouldn't have it any other way. A blissful smile spread across her face at being invited to sit beside Lady Eleanor as her right hand, a position she wouldn't have dared conceive herself in yet now she was. Lorelai settled into the chair lightly and began to pick at a vine of grapes to sate her hunger while listening to Lady Eleanor. [color=crimson]"Well it is good to know that the priestess Antonia is stalwart loyalist to the Imperium.  It would be tedious if we had to ferret out our enemies from every-"[/color]

The Abyssal Knight froze as her face became a shade of color not unlike her lady's hair at hearing words which probably weighed heavier upon her than Lady Eleanor had intended, unless she had a habit flattering her subordinates into blushing school girls. [color=crimson]"D-D-D-Dearest?!"[/color] Lorelai stuttered out, crushing a grape between her clammy fingers before taking a sudden interest in staring at her own lap. [color=crimson]"I'm unbefitting of such a kindness Lady Eleanor, but my life and all I hold are yours to use at your discretion. Nothing will bar your path while I still draw breath..."[/color]

Lorelai seemed to close in on herself after that, nodding in assent to Eleanor's request that they maintain the strictest of confidences and unintentionally agreeing to Axon's request to join her in the morning. Regardless of her intent, she wouldn't reject him if her showed up to join her and Sev.
