Hortensia is here. A relief she hadn't even known she was carrying lifts off her shoulders. She sighs out as they drop. Like everyone else, she looks like she's had a rough time, but she's here. With so many of their friends' statuses still unknown, it's a victory all the same.

"Hey, Hortensia." A smile is forced into place as Yunaka gives a little wave. She doesn't know the youngest Elusian princess very well. Burdening her with anything other than the silly and mysterious traveler feels cruel, with so much going on.

"Glad to see ya up and at 'em, that makes this easier." She gestures over in the direction of where she last saw Ivy. "Your sister is looking for you, she's been worried sick. You should go and find here as soon as you can."

Ivy would have burned down that army by herself just to reach Hortensia, if she could. Fate was sick and cruel to have stopped her. "...I'm glad to see you're alright."

-- FOR AS CUTE OF a woman as Yunaka was (not to mention their shared proclivity in face decorations), Hortensia had never taken the time to talk to her. It's not as if either of them had had a whole great deal of time of it, what with the war going on and whatnot, but it still gave her a sense of relief to see someone else familiar in this mess.

"Yunaka!" Hortensia matches her smile, grasping her hand. "Aw, I'm really glad to see you're okay too! Diamant said you were here but not, like, your state of being, so!"

She gives Yunaka a once over. "Yeah," she says, no small amount of relief in her voice as she brings up Ivy. "I ran into her just now. She's-" and Hortensia doesn't trust herself not to be cringe and un-princess-like in front of someone she definitely should be looking the part for so she gives a double thumbs-up and moves on. "Okay! I'm really-really-really happy she's okay. I just wanted to give everyone a quick check-up before heading out!"

As way of explanation, she brandishes her (somewhat beat-up) staff with a smile. "So if you've up and broken a bone somewhere, or know someone else who has, lemme know, okay? I'm sure they'd be thrilled to be healed by Elusia's cutest!"
