The woman was currently in the Mantellian Airship Terminal, the building from which the commercial Airships departed Solitas headed for the other cities across the world. She was currently blonde, although that was due to having dyed it a short while ago. She wore glasses and a bright red coat. Standing out enough to draw attention, but not suspicion. Most people around her glanced at her once, before moving on to more important matters.
It was certainly a rare thing for someone to call her. The fact that she didn't have many contacts in the first place made that difficult. As did the fact that very few people even knew she existed. Ordinarily, she would not have answered, but one glance at who was calling her changed her mind. If she was actually going to go through with what she was about to, she might as well get some amusement in beforehand.
"Tabitha!" The dark haired woman smirked. "How delightful to hear you again."
"Luna." Tabitha coldly replied after a few moments of silence.
"I'm surprised it took you so long to actually call me. What kept you?" She grinned. "Or did you forget? All that time in the middle of nowhere has certainly turned you batty."
"Did you assume that your betrayal would go unpunished?" Tabitha snarled. "Your 'offering'...was both missing and appalling. What kind of Mother offers up her own child in order to get out of an oath?!"
"What else was I going to use her for?" Luna shrugged dismissively. "And she wasn't missing when I left her, so that isn't exactly my fault."
"How can you even say that?!"
"On account of the fact that she's my daughter, of course." Luna replied, in a tone that implied it was obvious. "I don't see how it is any of anyone else's business what I do to, or with, my daughter."
"You abandoned her in the middle of the Solitas Wastes!" Tabitha protested.
"What of it? You and I both know the Grimm aren't allowed in Salem's Temple. She was safe...more or less. A few days of starvation wouldn't have hurt her. Nothing beyond your Queen's abilities to fix. I left her easy to mold into the perfect discardable soldier. I'm sure your Queen will appreciate that."
"Our Queen didn't find her. Atlas did." The woman on the other end of the call informed her. "She's gone."
"..A pity. Your Queen must be getting slow in her old age." Luna fired back.
"Our Queen." Tabitha corrected her. "It was Our Queen you betrayed. And as such, Our Queen wants you dead."
"No surprise there." Luna adopted an amused expression. "And it should be fairly obvious to anyone with even a modicum of sense that Salem is no Queen of mine. Not anymore."
"Traitor."
"That I am!" Came Luna's cheerful reply. "I wish I could talk more, but I have an airship to catch. Ta-ta, Tabby."
Luna grinned at the sound of Tabitha's protests, before cutting her off and tossing her scroll into a nearby public bin. She sauntered up to the ticket desk, and beamed.
The woman at the desk raised an eyebrow. "Can I help you, Ma'am?"
"Indeed you can!" Luna Fall smiled. "One ticket to Vacuo, please."
