ELRETH
Her aunt Huncer had taken over the Women's Council when Aymora died, though Elreth wasn't old enough to have been at council meetings before that moment, it was a relief to know there would be at least one friendly face.
She was surprised though, how casual the women were when they gathered.
They'd turned up at the cave with bags and snacks, and settled themselves around her large dining table—the one that had been in the Royal cave for more generations than anyone knew—all chatting and laughing like… like they were young.
She was taken aback, though she tried to hide it. "I'm so glad you're all here. I appreciate your willingness to help me take on this… very new challenge."
Of course, Huncer picked up on her surprise.
"We are all women, Elreth," she said as the females each pulled different projects from their bags. "Our time is full. If we can complete tasks and have some fun while we work, why wouldn't we?"
