"I'm bringing him here to stay with us, if Pearl doesn't throw him out," Stone adds. "And the rest of you don't object too much."
There's a stir of surprise as the Arbora look at each other, then back at Gale with more curious expressions-- still wary, but curious. The last time Stone brought someone to the court, it was Moon, and that turned out better than anyone had a right to expect.
Of course, that was also after being gone for months, in search a consort from another court. This is not even an hour after he flew away from the tree, and this isn't a Raksura. "How do you know each other?" the first Arbora asks, apparently the spokesperson of the group for now.
Stone looks inscrutable, and offers probably the simplest, but also least helpful, explanation he can: "We were kidnapped by magic people together."
