[ For Odina Ellis ]
Warren waited for a few days to pass after the announcement. While it hadn't gone entirely smoothly, it'd gone better than expected. Really only one person had spoken out against Odina and caused a scene. The new chieftess had given the younger woman an ultimatum, but Warren wasn't so sure that was sufficient. Not knowing that a rebellion could be stirring was one thing, but knowing who would be causing it, who would cause one given the chance, and letting her go free anyway, was asking for trouble. It was a delicate situation, one that Warren knew Odina had to ultimately decide upon herself if she was going to regain the respect of the women of Cambria. But he felt like she respected his opinions, and he wouldn't feel like he'd done his job to the best of his ability if he didn't inform her of his concerns.
He'd been vigilant for the first few days afterward. His soldiers were ordered to keep their ears to the streets and listen for any potential uprising, and to keep an eye on @revna. He also wanted an eye kept on Sigyn, a young woman who he hadn't personally encountered but had learned was Isolde's daughter. If anyone was going to cause trouble based on their anger, it would be the two of them. And if anyone was likely complicit in Isolde's crimes, it would be those same two women.
Nothing of importance popped up in those following days, though, so on the fourth morning, Warren made his way to Odina's home in the village. He'd knock and announce himself, and once he was let in, he'd give the Princess a respectful bow. "Chieftess Odina," he said, a polite smile just barely touching his lips. "Could I have a few moments of your time?"
