Brigid relaxed, slightly. Sasha's words were comforting, offering the Wizened a glimmer of hope in this new place. Perhaps she could simply be the assistant, being joy to others through hard work and personal satisfaction; not through abuse and justification. Unless this was some kind of ploy, in which case, Brigid would simply need to reevaluate later.
"You're too kind, my Queen," the Wizened said, listening to what Sasha added before speaking once again. "I must say that I find that quite frustrating. Surely, those who have been given a task and a title should surely focus on fulfilling it than allowing the Freehold's Sovereignty to fall into the trap of being put in such immediate danger? How did you all cope?" she added before realising what had slipped from her mouth, eyes going wide. "That was extremely rude of me, my Queen. Please, accept my apologies."
