[ The Vine cuts in on the view of a woman; tall, about six feet in height in her bare feet, with a shock of wavy red hair, dressed in the white shift of a new arrival. Her skin is fair, though a close observer might notice a tint of red to it that is very distinctly not a blush - rather, it's her natural coloration.
She's swearing vehemently under her breath, dusting grass and leaves off of herself - apparently she's gotten a little lost in the Gardens. Only immense self-control is keeping her from getting more obviously angry; after all, she's in a garden, and even if she has no idea what's going on, she does not think it would be prudent to set the whole thing aflame were she to lose control of her anima.
There is a finely-worked breastplate of some red metallic material at her feet, and in her right hand a sword that appears to be of the same stuff. It's also almost as long as she is tall; one might wonder how she can lift it.
Eventually she looks up and finally notices the mirror; her eyes widen a little, and then she goes forthrightly over to it. It is not unusual in the Realm for mirrors to be used as communication devices by certain types of people (sorcerers), and she can only imagine that is what this is. ]
Excuse me? If this is working - I will speak with this 'Queen of Hearts.' Now. My name is Yseult of House Mnemon, and she will return me to the Blessed Isle. Or is this such a distant and uncivilized place that she is unaware the punishment for kidnapping one of the Dragon-Blooded is death?
This is ridiculous.
[ She's angry, and all kinds of imperious and bitchy. Someone might want to set her straight. ]
