Mikhail could feel the air between the group and the old priestess getting a bit heavier when Fatima stated her desire to cross over. The clear resistance from the old priestess to attend to Fatima's request could prove to be a problem for them, which could cause a change in their plans that could potentially leave them in an unfavorable position, considering their situation and how they had a queen after them.

Much to Mikhail's surprise though the old priestess also showed curiosity instead of only suspicion as she spoke to Fatima, inquiring about her reasons for wanting to go to Kaeleer despite her warnings. That said, Mikhail himself couldn't blame the old priestess for her questions and thinking that Fatima was just like the other queens. Considering what she went through, it was no wonder that she probably saw Fatima unfavorably just because she was a queen. Other than that, her concern regarding what Fatima would do in Kaeleer wasn't unfounded, especially given how most Hyallian queens were.

[color=6ecff6]"I can assure you that Fatima isn't like other queens. The reason for the... situation we are in is exactly due to that."[/color] Mikhail said, looking to the old priestess with a serious stare.

[color=6ecff6]"That said... I think that there is no one better to talk about it than Fatima herself."[/color] he concluded, looking to Fatima and nodding towards her. Even if he wanted to make sure that the old priestess would agree with their request, the only person whom could probably give the old priestess the answer she would like was Fatima herself.
