Xie Lian has no idea what to expect from a queen who is also a magician; maybe someone like Yushi Huang, who wears her crown as a scar around her throat, unfailingly noble despite having adapted to another way of life entirely. The last true queen he'd known was his own mother; she had not been able to adapt at all. He follows Galahad at a slight distance, curious, and stops at the edge of the clearing in case he needs her permission to enter it.
This woman has an undeniable presence to her, but she is much more casually—and revealingly—dressed than any queen Xie Lian has seen. He has grown somewhat accustomed to how few layers the residents here wear, especially on the beach, but it still surprises him how little correlation there seems to be between manner of dress and role in their small society. He gives her a polite bow, and waits to be introduced.
