sunlight shines upon their stallions ( her own & those of her guards ) as the metallic GATE is reached. with guns prepared the keepers await she can smell their DISTRUST in the air & cannot blame them for it. regality in her frame, the commander is PATIENT none of this can be rushed or it could go terribly WRONG. a hand motion : an order for her people to stay back when the doors finally open ; & THERE SHE STANDS. none of the brewing emotions are betrayed by her expression ( she's learnt how to separate feelings from duty long ago ) although her voice is SOFT, horse left behind. ❛ HELLO, CLARKE. ❜ ( @reddenedhands ! )
