The Empress stood up and gestured to Lady D'Arcon and Lady Lorelei, smiling softly at the Marquess as she said "Chordeva, I do hope everything goes just as well with this next daughter of yours as it did with Jahi... She certainly turned out rather decent so far."
Smirking over at Jahi, the Empress added "I do hope you don't make me take back my own words, young Jahi... Despite some obvious flaws, I don't particularly mind you as a daughter in law. I at least know that my youngest won't be in bad hands with you."
She looked back towards Mother and gave her a smile as well, nodding to her as she said "As for you, I do hope it all goes well Miss Julie. Hybrid children can be... a tad more taxing on the body, but luckily Arc is here to help. I hope the Gods bless you with a safe birth. Ah, and Ria? Congratulations on your second daughter as well, dear. Tess wants to congratulate you too, so perhaps make your way towards the Sanctum tomorrow morning? She wishes to see you badly."
