Apophe waited in the gardens of Yahmsborg, looking around. She had been called there, but for what purpose she had no idea. The past few weeks had been busy, requiring new administrative planning for the expansion of the city and the new administration on Zakuul, and as such she had seen Amelia quite infrequently. Even more, she'd barely seen anyone at all lately, outside of various administrators and servants. She was tired, but she found the work more rewarding lately, especially when she knew those few times she did manage to see Amelia and her family.
Apparently, whatever she was meeting for was important, as Apophe had been asked to dress up a little. Apophe had taken that as cue to go all out. She wore a long, red cocktail dress with a slit down one leg and a very deep neckline and had done up her face with crimson lipstick, dark eye-shadow, and some rouge on her cheeks. She also wore some black pearl earrings she had received as a gift from some dignitaries from Zakuul. She sat, legs crossed.
The garden had grown in splendor since she had been there last. More rare flowers had been discovered, as well as a tree with a particularly alluring, almost intoxicating scent that hung in the air wherever its pollen blew. It was easily the most colourful location in all of Yahmsborg, a place of greenery in a world of white and grey. It was, perhaps, Apophe's crowning achievement for the city.
Her gaze drifted around the garden. She had no idea who had called her here, though she had a pretty good idea. What was more confusing was the purpose. A servant had merely told her to visit the garden, get dressed up, and that someone had something important to say to her. It was exciting to be sure, although Apophe wished perhaps things could be less mysterious.
Idly, she tapped her foot on the ground, taking in the air. At the very least, it was nice in the garden.
