	Valda did the thing he would have done in her situation, and he couldn't begrudge that at all. If Gordy had been kidnapped by some loony witches and he knew how to Transport like, he would have zapped off to go find him as well. Hell, he probably would have done so well before she had. Sure, someone could bring up the inherent danger of potentially teleporting directly into a battle or in the middle of a witch den, but he wouldn't have particularly cared. 

	[color=F2541F]"Y'know the Queen's a witch too,"[/color] Atkin interjected at Arya's assertion that a witch is a witch. [color=F2541F]"If I were a Wendron Witch and I'd just taken out the Port Witches, last thing I'd want to do is attack the Castle like that. Far as I'd be concerned, my coven already owns the place. It's like when your mate gets a new place. You don't start trashing the place immediately after he moves in. Nah, it's gotta be the port witches. It's showin' off power and dominance. 'We're the big lads in town now, so you better do what we say.'"[/color]

	It was something he'd seen once or twice before. One gang takes out another and then they make a big show about it. Same deal. At least he hoped so. Even the witches wouldn't be stupid enough to seriously try taking over the Castle now by force, would they? The Young Army's crawling the streets, Wizard Tower has all it's magical wards up, the Guards are on high alert and the Port Witches had just had a big slap fight with the Wendron Witches, this would be the worst possible time to try an invasion. But what did he know?[hr]
	The woman's eyes widened when Valda suddenly appeared before her but made no move to stop her from doing whatever it was. Magyk was something she only knew enough about to work with or around it as required. The Reverse was far beyond her depth, but it seemed to do the princess quite well, for she woke up for the first time in a worryingly long amount of time.

	"My queen, would you like to take the princess back to the Palace?" She didn't let go of Luna, for she wasn't sure if she was strong enough to stand on her own once more. But if the queen was able to Transport herself and her sister back to the Castle, all would be fine for the woman. But if not, then things got even trickier, having to escort not one, but two members of the Royal Family back to the Palace without any further harm coming to either.

	"Jadis is the Wendron Mother, right? If so," the woman looked away from everyone else, at the ground as the images of Jadis' gruesome death flashed in her mind. "She's... no longer of this world." Her gaze returned to Valda. "I saw her die. I don't know what Magyk caused her demise, but she... dissolved from within into nothing. I don't know how to describe it." She hoped Valda wouldn't take the news too badly. She'd had quite a rough day as well, this news would only make it worse.
