Thalassa is finally in Solandor.

For the rest of the details, Sigrid waited until they had returned to the royal castle and where safe behind closed doors in her reading room to explain why she was in need of a pregnant woman that was ready to give birth. 

"So...phantom midwife." Mauve looked at Sigrid's abdomen. "Are you expecting or having trouble expecting?" 

She smiled mysteriously, urged them to move closer and whispered. "I am expecting but it is a secret that you will tell no one." Then she leaned away from them and walked to her desk and sat down in the chair. 

Mauve and Christie were all smiles and gushes, happy for her, which was to be expected. 

"Oh, we are going to have a mini Sigrid." Mauve squealed. 

"Shhh." Sigrid and Christie gestured to Mauve at the same time. She had one of those sharp squeals that could travel through walls and doors.
