Nonetheless, she stands at attention with perfect posture and neutral tone and expression before the Queen to present her report, exactly as she has been instructed in her training.
>"Of course, Your Majesty. I met Nikki Kade on the wall of the castle under unusual circumstances. She introduced herself to me as a close personal friend of yours, and a close friend of your friend Priscilla Divine. Her claims are not at-odds with my own knowledge of the world of wrestling, though the hour of her visit and her particular interest in demonology struck me as most unusual and concerning. I therefore concluded that the best course of action was to bring her in - without struggle or injury, given her presumed status as your friend - and ensure that this matter came to your attention by the most direct means possible, since it clearly must be of some importance and urgency, to require a visit at this hour, under these circumstances."She stops and bows again, flashing a look that is somewhat apologetic.
>"Forgive my misjudgment if this is not so, Your Majesty, but I assessed a strong likelihood that you would want Nikki Kade unharmed and in your presence for further explanation, and personal awareness of this situation as soon as possible."
