After leaving the throne room, Daenya made her way to Trajan's rooms and knocked on his door.

Trajan cracks the door open, only half his face visible as he glanced out. Seeing Daenya, he opened it wider.
The Knight Inquisitor's quarters were spartan, various weapons scattered about or being tinkered with.
"Yes?" he asked tersely. "Did we not get enough bonding time the previous evening?"

Daenya went a little pale and she quickly pushed the memory from her mind.
"I was just talking to father... I told him I wanted to see the Summer Islands, to act as... well, envoy." She looked briefly around his quarters, looking anywhere but at him. "Father said I needed a chaperone and so... well..."

"You thought of me? The ideal protector of young women." Trajan remarked deadpan. "Why would I want to go there when there is so much to do here?"

"Because..." She started, closing her eyes and taking a deep breath. "Because you like the... the other me. And because you want to see her... become stronger."

"I am curious how a trip to an island of whore will accomplish that?" Trajan asked, dismissively. "I recommended you to the front lines and you decide to go on a vacation instead."

"You... you did?" Daenya asked, surprise in her voice. She frowned, conflicted now by what she wanted. Then she remembered the the boy, how her blade hat cut through his thin neck, the tears on Bert's face, the way his hands felt around her throat, how the arrow popped his eyeball before going into his head.
"No... I... I don't think I am quite ready yet for war..."

"A shame." he said coldly. "I think your other half would disagree."

"I don't care much about what she thinks," Daenya said quietly, hoping he wouldn't press the issue. "Please come with me. I am sure there is more than just..." She shivered. "Whoring on the island. My father would be very displeased if I were to get into an unfortunate situation, out of my control."

"How much more wroth do you think he'd be if more messages were in need of delivery in the night and his courier was a world away?" he asked.

"Then he should hire some more, shouldn't he?" Daenya suggested, sounding mildly annoyed. "I can't exactly go to one of the Kingsguard and ask them, useless as they'd be."
She raised a single eyebrow. "You never kill a Summer Islander before?"

Trajan seemed about to close the door, until he heard the second point.
"I have not yet had the pleasure." he said, with mild interest. "Though I don't suspect I will on a diplomatic mission."

"Who knows, they might all turn out to be bastards," Daenya suggested. "Some idiot will try and kill me, I can guarantee that."

"Tempting, but I'll have to pass." he replied. "Best run off before your better half rears her head to test my patience again."

"Then who do I fucking ask instead, huh?" Daenya said angrily, not moving from the spot. "Just because you're too much of a coward to leave father's side."

"I am no craven, just one who knows his place." he said coldly. "Who you bring on this foolhardy endeavor is not my concern."

"And your place is killing huge threats, like little girls," Daenya said with a vicious laugh. "Stay here then," She added, before stalking from his rooms.

The door closed quietly as she stormed away.
