“One mustn't fear possible judgement when judgement is already being placed on them.” Dalia said bluntly. “Perhaps one is more worried about the words of a child and how she may make her master look given how others associate her actions to him.” She said flatly with an annoyed look that faded slightly when Daichi placed a hand on her forearm, their own little code for when Daichi noticed her breaking the character she was in too much. As odd as it felt honestly her real self at this point was starting to become just as much of a character as her other personas. It was alright though, she, Daichi, and more recently Lagi knew who she was still so it didn’t matter. 8 would know one day soon as well, the only question was if she fully worried about how 8 saw her by then or was more concerned about her own personal feelings and plans on the matter.
It was likely, after all, her faction and its goals were now spreading to her own as she built it up. She could only wonder though if the slaves she was targeting to recruit in Kou were any from his group or directly his own… honestly it didn’t matter fully to her currently Lara after all was more focused on showing the competition she was there, and worth taking not of while Lila was more concerned about putting the slaves in a more of a situation that was chosen by them and to see if doing that made her feel any better about her own actions. Those were their concerns though and currently she had to focus on Dalia’s, which was simple, to enjoy herself, seem simple to the masses while openly speaking her mind….
And possibly smacking some people if anymore added a wall between her and the girl she’d honestly be far more willing to talk to-... She heard the pffft behind her and looked back to see Altan. “Oh you're here too.” She said not really hostilely honestly. It just was more of a oh legit didn't notice you there. Daichi though providing the girl a respectful head bow and soft smile before returning to looking out for any targets looking at Dalia. Dalia looked back over as the woman spoke once more nodding as she stated her name ”I never liked staying in one place for too long her” She said in a tone that felt as though Dalia was finding at least some sort of familiar ground with the woman.
Not fully caring if 8 took note of this given from his perspective she had been in Kina alone really for the last few months they had arrived there. “There may not be many clues but the guesses are endless but all in the same general areas none of which are good.” She said simply in regards to the gold lining the clan’s pockets. Dalia’s eyes softened a bit seeing the looks the woman held making herself look back forward, she didn’t need a self reminder of her slowly growing care for others outside of her immediate close ones. Not now at least, she had plenty of those on her own when she was by herself. “It is quite unfortunate, I could only imagine what he’d go through or do if he knew even some of what those two clans did, and planned behind his back."
"I do see respect in his ability to stay well composed under such pressure though. I will give him at least that…. And the fact that even if there are sparks amongst the clans there are no flames yet so his skills as a leader are quite apparent….” She sighed a bit. “As much as the sight of a massive battle everywhere that would come with war is enticing, it would be quite unfortunate if war broke loose especially all of what that man likely does to prevent it. Especially given the outside forces here… the bloodshed would be endless for quite some time… and those left standing… sadly would be more outsiders then their own people.” She said seeming lost in thought as if replaying an image to herself for a moment before nodding to the woman as they neared the checkpoint to get in.
“My name is Dalia Fedcono… It was actually pleasant talking to you but I shall part ways with you for now.” She said bowing her head to her before stepping up when it was her turn to be checked. They found no traces of anything on her, after all she brought nothing with her, her body was more than enough of a weapon if things turned poorly. That and the only weapon she more commonly was willing to use she was still training with so she’d rather not try to smuggle in something that she would only fumble with and risk something for nothing as the end result. She waited for Daichi to finish his check, handing over all his usual weapons not daring to sneak anything in and risk the image of the two of them being tarnished from him being caught smuggling something.
He walked back up to Dalia as they looked about the area as they entered with the beautiful music playing around them; the palace grounds were far grander in size than she had suspected. She kept note of where they were supposed to go but roamed about the area with Daichi at her side curiously looking about.
