>Let's try this again

>Bracing yourself for the storm of emotions you know contact with the Champion will bring, you extend your hand out towards her. Prudently, your other hand grips White Roses' again.
>When the Champion places her outstretched wing into your hand, the first thing you sense from her is not the torrent of sadness and despair you felt before, but a sensation of curiosity. This curiosity is directed at White Rose. You feel that the Champion is wondering if White Rose is somehow more special to you than the other members of your group.

>Try to convey that our bond, while deep, is one of mutual choice - we are close because both of us wish to be close and not because of any force that compels us to be so. We are partners.
>...though try to at least phrase these thoughts tactfully, since we don't really know Ice's own views on her apparent-servitude.

>With a certain level of delicacy, you do your best to communicate your feelings to the Ice Champion. This mode of communication is most peculiar. In a way, it's not too far removed from the spiritual links you've forged with Lily and Kiku, through your rings. And yet in other ways it feels entirely different. You're certain the Ice Champion can sense your thoughts and feelings, but you can't be entirely certain they're being conveyed the way you want them to be. It is simultaneously a more intimate, and yet less precise, means of communicating with rather than simply talking to her. An option which, of course, is still available to you, though it is less private.
>The sensation you get in reply from the Ice Champion is... confusing. A number of emotions seem to flow through the Champion's wing. As near as you can tell, things are at least somewhat different between Ice and Fire, but the sense you get is that to properly explain the nature of their bond, she would have to expose you to the emotions that come from living in Makai. You believe she would rather spare you that.

>The Champion gives you another of her partial nods. You sense that she is willing to reach out to Mother, that she is willing to relay your message to Her. But you also sense that she cannot guarantee that Mother will reply. Or that She will even care. The sorrow you sense in that last part is profound. But despite that, she invites you to say what you wish Mother to hear.
