[ there was a time when people had no such access to images of their betrothed, having to rely on word of mouth and artistic renderings. it feels less foreign to her, being able to look at him now, a stranger but not, and she has to find a little bit of comfort there. while she is known for her honest diplomacy on the union floor, she still tries to put on a brave face, not wanting to make a poor first impression today. ( of course, her reputation surely precedes her anyway. )
as young as she looks and is, she holds herself confidently with a straight posture, shoulders back, chin lifted just so, and only relaxes subtly when rilan extends a hand for her to shake. her palm presses against his and she feels warm. ]
It is a pleasure to finally meet you, Rilan. [husband. and doesn't he sound pleased about it!
that's just enough to get sola to crack a more natural smile, wine-red lips curving upward. her hand leaves his only for her to gesture to the table set for them both. ] Please, let me pour you a drink.
