The tiny feline blinked as the captain spoke softly.  Subconsciously, she perked her ears for any possible eavesdroppers.  No, we're fine, she mused, frowning lightly.  These were, she noted, the reasons her father had gone off to spy.  They had to act like nothing was amiss, that they were not suspicious for any reason.  Even if she didn't necessarily like it.  She saw the brains behind it.

Regardless, she hung on Goldie's words for the moment, wondering where this was going.  Tanglewood?  Her brow rose briefly.  Her knowledge of the swamp dwellers was admittedly lacking.  The Typhoon never had much to do with them.  All she really knew about them was about their home biome and her cousin's presence there.

They attacked the Pitt.  Keona nodded, biting back a smirk.  The Pitt deserved some hurting, even if it wasn't by their paws.  Only it came with information.  Pale hues flickered and narrowed.  No, it didn't surprise her Jervis lied.  Did this mean retaliation was coming?  Or... Oh.

Stars.  They did have to tell Raziel, certainly.  This explained her baby cousin's -- or was she older than her since that strange event? -- absence.  And Fiachra's ferocious behavior.  "… I'll tell him."  A heavy weight sinks on her chest at the thought, but she trusted her uncle.  He possessed the calmest soul she'd ever met.  She didn't know how he might take it, but she imagined he'd fare better than his brothers did when she'd been taken.  "He's smart."

The privateer cocked her head lightly as her captain continued, pondering what a partnership might mean for all of them.  If Tanglewood was against the Pitt though, that was enough for her.  Besides, Suvi liked them too, or enough to keep going back and forth.  Keona supposed she did not mind keeping quiet on all of this.  She was already very private, so this wouldn't be a struggle at the very least, and she had her father to talk to, even if it was only through their link.

Speaking of.  He'll be ready.  He always seemed ready for trouble. "I'll see what I can fin' out."
