She tucked her chestnut hair behind one of her black-tipped ears, Massacre eyes flitting about the cavernous area with a strange and apathetic curiosity. It was her father's home, and her uncle's home and her grandmother's, but not hers. She lived within the D'Neville Mansion, second floor, center hall. Where all her nightmares came true, and where a warm body to sleep with was only one hall and a few doors to the west. Cotl had proven somewhat submissive to her whims in their last meeting, a fact that she found pleasing and sent her back for more contact when she found the time. It made the manor a good decision for her, though she wondered if Gabriel would have preferred she live closer.
Her ears twitched to listen to Valkyrie's words and desires in her own home, a thoughtful expression crossing her features. While it was true she didn't know the caves as easily as she could have, she wanted to help this strange de le Poer. "I don't believe we have caves near ocean," she started to say, voice soft as her eyes darted about the entrances. "But Lethe runs through the Grimwell Caverns, and there are caves close to it." The woman's eyes finally settled back on the younger de le Poer, preceeding a gentle smile.
Subconsciously, she wondered where exactly Gabriel's dwelling was, scenting the air for traces of the male. It was everywhere, naturally, disorienting her to the true location. The soft smile faltered, twisting into a subtle frown. There would be time for her to find him later; it was Valkyrie's time just then. "Perhaps one of the riverside caves would be of your interest?" Her feet took her along a vaguely familiar path, ears leading her to the quiet river that ran through the two caves within the Caverns themselves. River Lethe was the shorter of the three rivers branching off from the Saltbrooke Inlet, Styx bordering Arachnea's Revenge to the south while Acheron bisected Inferni and curled around the Riparian Moors toward the north.
The inlet was salt, and the closest thing that the Caverns came to being near ocean water; if her, assumably, cousin truly desired a seaside cave, she would have to move outside of the borders. Talitha glanced back to the young de le Poer, her subtle smile returning once more.
