Juniper nods when Aurelia speaks her name, and takes the jar when Aurelia offers it, carefully turning it over in her hands to examine it. She still isn't completely sure what Aurelia means to do with it, not until Aurelia mentions luck; then Juniper smiles. "As good-luck charms go, it's very pretty."
Offering the jar back to Aurelia, Juniper considers the woman before her. Aurelia sounds lost, tired -- very different from the somewhat arrogant queen with whom Juniper last spoke. Juniper can't help but wonder what occasioned this change, and ... "Is everything all right?"
When Aurelia asks why Juniper is here, the Fae looks around, sort of embarrassed to admit that she doesn't even have the odd reason Aurelia offered. "Oh ... I was just looking around. I've never been here before, and it's gorgeous." Juniper hesitates, but if she wants Aurelia to open up to her, she should probably do the same, so she gives Aurelia a sheepish smile and adds, "And I've heard rumors that this place is sacred to Rae. I've been wandering more lately, trying to ... understand the gods, I suppose."
