[Realizing how convoluted this all is, she barks out a laugh.] Gods, but I'm glad you're here. I don't have the head for keeping this nonsense sorted, and Ser Aymeric is preoccupied with assisting Estinien in his, ah, troubles.
[And maybe a quarter of the remaining half of Aymeric's time is drinking and occasionally tumbling her, but she is about 95% sure that Alphinaud would have a meltdown if he ever found out about that.]
