Penelope didn't bother to point out that her father had only changed his mind because he thought she was acting careless. The knight had to agree it was quite lucky though. Every step she had taken in her life, mainly career wise, had led her to him. From proving her abilities to William so he would recommend her for the king's mission to becoming Mia's lieutenant to end up in the battalion near him, everything took her to him. Though, she supposed that was also largely thanks to some divine interference but she wasn't going to complain about that. Even if most of their meetings had been planned by someone else, she was still grateful she wouldn't have to know a life where they had never crossed paths. She smiled a bit bashfully at Crow's words and wrapped her arm around him as he hugged her. "Yes, well, things certainly worked out for the best in that aspect." she mused resting her head against him as she casted him an affectionate look. The knight glanced back over to Letitia and gave her a small smile. "We should probably get going though. This was just our first stop for the day." "Already?" Letitia frowned a little and then crossed her arms. "You're just trying to get out of here before I bring up Scratch aren't you?" "Well I wasn't until now." Penelope felt her face growing warm again at the name. She shook her head and smiled at Letitia. "We'll be back again at some point so I'm sure you'll have plenty of time to tell him more stories then." "And don't think I won't." The older woman grinned. "You two better stop by again soon." She stepped over to wrap Penelope up in a hug. She gave her a firm squeeze before letting her go and turning to Crow. "It was nice meeting you, Collin. I'm glad the new viceroy isn't as horrible as some say.. Good thing too since I would have whacked you if you were." She gave him a playful wink and patted him on the back. "I'm sure her father isn't giving you an easy time so good luck. If I hear or see him, I'll put in a couple good words for you.
