"I-" Yannika actually thought about the demon's offer and felt ashamed of herself because of it. She would never allow Carius to be compromised no matter how much it may have helped her. "No. Carius will come to the right decision in his own time. No matter how expedient you might be able to make the situation, I must and will trust him."As Yannika lets the the water's heat sooth her tired muscles, the maid nods and leaves. Relaxing after the pounding she endured at the hands of her son, Yannika spends a while just lying still for a moment, before Izzy appears in her vision. "So, mission accomplished, eh? Well, not quite." She joins Yannika in the bath, though it's not cramped at all because she's incorporeal. "He didn't seem completely sold on the idea of marrying you. I could help with that, you know. Give him the... nudge...he needs."
The maid returns after a little while. She says that the cardinal has accepted her request for a meeting, and that the connection to Lave V should be ready not long after that.
When the maid returned Yannika thanked her and rose from the tub. She had matters to attend to and set about getting dressed. Once she finished, she left the palace for the cathedral.
