Ajax leans back as Thia is making the rounds again with drinks.
"That is a relief to hear," Ajax replies, genuine, as Thia refills their glasses. "I would not wish you to run afoul of local storms."
"You are expecting fierce winds?" Kreyu asks. Neither of them are talking about literal weather.
"Very fierce, though this House has withstood such storms before. It has its protections." He sips his wine as Thia is waiting on someone else across the room. He chuckles. "Another reason I have made it my home these days, besides the lovely company."
Kreyu nods. "You expect the storm to last a while, will the city be in danger?"
Ajax thinks for a moment. "No, I don't think the city will come to major harm. Around the palace, perhaps, but no great fires, no tearing down of the city walls, famine, or pestilence."
