(Hehe heck yeah)

“… May I ask why that is?” Was she pushing it? Hopefully not. Either way, she wanted answers to her questions. Why shouldn’t she know if she had a half sibling? What was Ash hiding? Clearly wasn’t hiding too well if he gave her the name. Ky Ruirac.

"I did not say that I would answer. It's not time; be patient, child." She was very like her sisters in that way--impatient. But where one had been raised a farmer and then a slave and the other had been raised a soldier, this one had an air of privilege to her voice. It rankled him more than he cared to admit.

(Poor Rana lol)

She sighed despite herself and stopped walking, fed up. She was letting him get under her skin and she needed to… not. Just go to her room. Don’t get herself in trouble. She’d figure it out on her own if he wanted to speak in riddles.

(Nor do I, I'm afraid. Everyone is gonna be uncomfortable around Gaius, Sara will be concerned. When Rana comes down she'll obviously be weirded out by the resemblance to Ky.)

(Oh yeah not all at once just like if Gaius sends Sera to escort Rana or something? Idk random thought we could also just skip to her arriving at whatever room you please. No preference here)
