Styx frowned, claws twirling absently in the bones beneath her feet as she sat atop her rotting throne. The delegation for an alliance was supposed to be here soon, what was taking them so long? She heard Hanson from where he stood next the pile she sat atop, and looked down at him with a grunt, "Well? What about it Mr. Know-It-All?

The pearlcatcher chuckled, glancing up at her and shaking his head.
"Don't be surprised that they're late. It takes a few days to travel to the Wandering Contagion from The Focal Point." he huffed and sat down- he had just taken notice of the foul mood his leader was in, and his quiet laughter stopped as she glared at him. "Besides, I do believe they should be arriving shortly, Styx. No need to worry."[/center]

Rolo moved their long body into the opening structure of the new clan. A clan they would have to discuss terms and conditions with. This brought a low rumbled in their throat before they spread their wings to appear bigger. Their head was held high as they approached the throne. Slowly she bent and closed their eyes. They soon stood once more, letting out rumbles and grunts.
They were mute.
They spoke through a mental connection.
They gave a low hum, allowing their eyes to flash pink pink before they started to speak through their mind.
"My name is Rolo, I am the clan leader of Nightvale, The clan of dissolving dreams. I apologize for the wait. My sons and daughter were fighting." They bowed once more.

Styx snorted gruffly, and watched as the imperial grew closer to the heart of the camp. She twitched her tail impatiently, but said nothing until Rolo was standing directly in front of her.
"I would say no problem," the mirror began, "If this weren't such delicate matter we are discussing."
The pile she sat upon made her look slightly bigger, but even still, the imperial was near eye level. She felt, rather than heard, Hanson flick his tail against the bottom of the pile- a signal of sorts.
She huffed. Well, that was a good sign. Apparently Hanson was seeing good things about this, so with Styx leaned forward and relaxed a bit, "I do understand dragonet troubles, but I should think that teaching your children discipline is higher up on your list of things to do." The pile shifted as she sat down, crossing her forelegs over one another.
"If you haven't brought anyone else with you, and you want to get this thing sorted out, I suggest we begin speaking of the terms for our alliance. I trust that Breeze wouldn't go out of her way to send a letter to a clan that cannot understand how important allies are in this world we live in."

Rolo huffed lowly and shook out their maned neck. The long blue rags they wore hung loosely. "They are very well behaved, they aren't actually as young as you may think. They simply were trying to decide who got to take over as clan leader while I'm away." Rolo's mental communication was causing their eyes to glow a brighter pink.
Rolo sat down on her back legs, her forelegs propping her up. Her blue and white piebald wings draped along the ground around them.
"Let's continue to discuss then." Rolo mentally hummed.
She clicked and keened softly from her throat in thought.
"So what would be the terms and agreements?"

Styx nodded, "Yes, that."
Her tail twitched back and forth, and she met the imperial's eye with a steady gaze.
"My terms are simple. My warriors will be obliged to help you and your clan cross the Wyrmwound, The Abiding Boneyard, etcetera. We will also come to your aid when called, and will lay down our lives for yours in turn."
She sniffed, and twitched one of her wings as though a foul stench just crawled under her nose.
"You will then do the same for us, escort us, defend us in dominance battles- the like."
Distant music began to play, and Styx motioned briefly to a coatl that had been watching the entire scene play out to silence the sound. He scurries off in a flash, and she continued.
"The last thing I expect from you is that you will not attack us even if your entire flight is having a battle with us of the Rotted One. If you do, we will not hesitate to defend ourselves. Of course, we will do the same for you. Avoiding your clan in the midst of battle."

Rolo listened to the terms, head nodding calmly as they sat quietly in thought. The female tried not to take some of the other female's movements as one that held a threat. The imperial pushing down firm growls of warning.
They sighed calmly before readjusting, their tail flicking before their eyes started glowing once more.
"Alright, I can accept all those terms. Where do I sign or such and such?"
Rolo heard a crash, they flipped around to see their son racing in, his trident attached at his side. Rolo snarled at him.
"Marcus! You should be back in the cave!"
Marcus keened and rubbed against his mother before sending a glare to the other clans leader.

Styx let out a loud hiss, frills raising defensively and poising herself in a hunched form. Her eyes glow a beaming bright red, and any in the next mile could probably smell the anger on her lithe form.
"What is the meaning of this?!" She snarled, "My hospitality should not be extended to those who haven't the decency to enter my domain in a ruly manner!"
Hanson, meanwhile, looked on in a hostile amusement, and blinked at the younger imperial in interest. He flicked his tail with a calm urgency once more upon the boney throne, but Styx took no notice, and continued to hiss angrily.
"Broodmother help you have an explanation for this disruption!"

Rolo snarled at her youngest son, baring her sharp teeth before nipping warningly at his floppy ears and long whiskers. She was disappointed in her boy. She was also worried that soon, the clan leader and the pearlcatcher would not take so kindly to them.
Gently Rolo tucked her young son underneath her wing, giving him a soft keen before looking up, neck bared in submission. She was embarrassed. And unendingly ashamed.
"I am no broodmother...I am a clan leader." Rolo gave a light bare of their teeth before huffing.
"I do not have an explanation of why my child has charged in here...He is only a month old." Rolo hummed mentally and glanced back to her son.
The younger imperial whining lightly and licking at his trident with nerves. "I'm sorry momma...I didn't wanna be with Lila and Grayson." Rolo could only sigh and hang her head.
"I will remove myself from the alliance as a sorry if you would ask that of me..." She keened through the mental conversation.

Styx shook her head and relaxed a bit, but kept herself in a defensive position.
"No, I believe that this alliance is too important to simply shove aside due to a simple youngling. The Arcanist's realm is far from here, but it is good to have allies in unlikely places."
The pearlcatcher nods, giving the two visitors a calm look. "I must insist that you stay," he says, "Styx may not trust many, but she will lay down her life for those that would do so in return for us."

Rolo gave Styx another calm bow before agreeing with her. "I too believe that this alliance is important for our clans." Rolo felt the nuzzles from their young son. Marcus was too dependent on his mother. Rolo deeply knew that, but couldn't help but give him all her attention. She cooed to him. "Shhh...I must do business." The male hummed back and went quiet.
"I am very serious about my commitment to you and your clan. I think together we could prevail better than without one another. My soldiers will fight with your clan whenever asked." The leader grinned proudly.
"Now where do we sign to this?"
