[since when does luca give a rat's ass about the phoenix's comfort? the last kiera heard, he actively opposes its "continued existence."
while it may not occur to them just yet that they are speaking to the phoenix itself, they figure that surely it must be exerting heavier control over luca somehow. perhaps there really are similar compulsions amongst the other beasts' blessed. how else could their lines have survived centuries at war with one another?
logical though it may be, it isn't a very reassuring thought. if the phoenix dominates luca's actions, threatened by a lurking leviathan, and forced to bear the butterfly's presence... suffice to say, kiera should tread lightly.
one more thing to add to the ball of fear in their core. lovely.
damned if they show it, though. they roll their shoulders in a dismissive shrug.]
You know how many do-good busybodies we have. They're all scampering like rodents to fix this mess as we speak.
