There's a pause. She's almost as startled as the young angel seems to be, but... "I agree. While these are all very important matters, I believe they are also matters than can be discussed under the guidance of our trusted advisors." She and Zaveid really shouldn't have to be around for the back and forth until the conclusions are reached, or close to it. "I was under the impression that a proposal from the High Council was to be made that needed direct opinion from myself and our... esteemed guest."
Otherwise, why on earth had they dragged him here for this one specifically?
"With your permission, Lady Dove." An elder, this one a demon, slowly rises to his feet, collecting the approving eye from her own council one by one. "And yours, my King, we believe we have come to an arrangement that will suit us all in favor of unity between our kingdoms, and heal the rifts that have cut so deeply through our history."
"A balance of power, for all our people, and an ultimate end to what otherwise may seem to be an irreparable separation," adds his angel counterpart, the Councilman to Dove's right from before.
