The woman couldn't help but cringe when her daughter said she was used to the hate that the other Tanglers were giving her. It was painful for a mother to hear because a child, no matter if they acted more mature or not was still a child, and the things that others said and did to them affected them. It was not a pass card to abuse a child because of maturity sake when things could always change and lessons could be learned. Her tail wrapped around the child then as she gave a soft sigh. ''She should not be used with it. She should be used to living here freely and others helping her not shouting her down and locking her up.'' The lioness pulled a smile across her peach toned muzzle and she flicked her tail lightly before her head rose up and she listened to her brother's words. Right now she was happy to have him here, someone who understood and she could talk to him. He was a constant solid presence when they were growing up and she appreciated his words. He was right, their tribe practiced many different methods of restraint and using weapons was one of them. It taught discipline and understanding a weapon and how to use it both defensively and offensively gave a look into what life really meant. ''Thank you, Ximen.'' If she could purr she would have but then their moment was interrupted.
Her rounded ears pulled back as she narrowed her eyes on Aurum and it was most obvious that she did not like his decision and that he could not trust her with how she was going about this. He didn't approve of this and she didn't approve of how he threatened Ares with exile. She was more upset that he couldn't have at least talked to her about the punishment before he put it up considering it pertained to her only daughter. She had thought that when he deemed her to be deputy that he would share his thoughts with her, they would talk things out and get to understand each other. He would teach her what it meant to one day potentially be leader of a foreign place. But she guessed she was wrong, she wouldn't have any choices, she was not to be his council when rough decisions were being made and instead he would truck on with what he believed was right. She supposed it was for the good of Tanglewood as a whole. She didn't have anything to say because everyone had their stances and they were all out in the open. His dripping sarcasm was not lost on her, his words of irresponsible meeting deaf ears and she turned away from his retreating form and instead focused on family. ''Things will get better, she is sure of it. They can work through this and the sun will break the clouds. She will see, Ares.''
