Garnet had received the promised message; Nanaki (as Steiner had informed her) had sent word that he was near, and she'd set into motion. Donning white mage coat, gloves, and boots, she'd called for a proper guard, picked up a rod, and tucked her gifted nethecite into her pocket. She could not be too careful. With one soldier on either side, the Queen made her way out of the palace, pulling her cloak more tightly against the winter chill. A dusting of snow crunched beneath her shoes, as she made her way to the dock, where the small ferry boat waited to take her across. The lake itself was frozen in some places along the surface, and edges, promising a very uncomfortable swim for anyone who was unlucky enough to fall into it. Garnet paid it no mind as she boarded with her two body-guards, and the ferryman guided the vessel to the other side.

Alexandria in winter-time, was quite beautiful. Frost trimmed the windows and the same dusting of snow that littered the ground, also coated the roof-tops, the look something Garnet likened to powdered sugar. Smoke billowed from chimney and stovepipe, indicating the fires that burned within. A pleasant winter's day, to all appearances...

But it could not be dwelt upon. Not as she scanned the streets, waiting in anticipation for this stranger. She knew not even who she was looking for, but had no doubt he would make himself known soon enough.
