It had only been a few days since Rory moved to the city and she officially decided that the best part of Firebrand was all the amazing blood-infused food concoctions that the chefs and bakers in this city were capable of. The selection was truly one of a kind and Rory was spending pretty much every dollar she was earning loading herself up with all the baked goods she could fit inside her small stomach.

She had expected some sort of security going to the Riverlands to visit the fae queen but the instant hostility still caught her by surprise. She didn’t belong here, she knew that, but how else was she supposed to get an audience with the damn queen? 

 After bolting out of the bakery the other day, she felt really bad and wanted to make it up to the girl for scaring her. Figuring no sane individual would accept an invitation from the vampire who nearly bit her head off, Rory decided to take the trip to her to show her sincerity and to give Calliope the home field advantage. The fae definitely had the home field advantage here since half of the houses were up in high trees and vampires couldn’t fly and the fae also had Rory surrounded by her own guards. 

 “I just wanted an audience with your queen!” she announced, making no sudden moves whatsoever. Her hands were still up and clutching a bag with the bakery store label. “I was just delivering some cupcakes…”
