[X] I am the Student of [Winter's Muse][Songstress of Endings], Feel free to join the performance how you see fit

This appeals on the very basic fact that at least it isnt trying to enter a bargain.

Offering the information in an appropriately grandiose manner leaves the Ice Woman bereft of a good or service to exchange for that knowledge, meaning no spooky Fae shit can apply here

All that's left is gambling on how things go in the aftermath, and that's a gamble I'm more comfortable taking if the White sky have the flexibility to escape in the confusion

...What?

No?

I spent like 8 hours yesterday arguing in favor of it. I preferred Flooms writein because its more polite, but the spirit is mostly the same. If Alectais write in closes the gap I'll drop entirely for it instead

Edit:

Oh ffs mild dyslexia

Thanks for pointing that out

Well, that was a fucking exhausting trip home, but it gave me a lot of time to theorycraft a good response.

We show no weakness, we actually answer her question, and tosses the ball back in her court in a context that would be understood presuming the cultural drift isn't too out of hand. It establishes that while we're pressed we're not desperate (Which is a sign of weakness), and points out that this is a grand show (Which given the hints that Elders are about to get stuck in, isn't inaccurate) and grants an invitation for her to participate without making demands or risking giving offense, under the context of the 'Performance', which means we might get a big huge dramatic show-fight that nonetheless puts us in a better position, because we've changed the context from a fight into a show

Sorry, but I'm like 99% sure this vote is invalid by yrs's write-in requirements.

Alright guys, I'm going to carefully open this up a little. Write Ins should be a single sentence, with no more than one clause. Remember you're trying to communicate a simple idea through music here, and you're also in the middle of a battlefield, you don't have time to spin off a whole paragraph even if you could.

That's two sentences with a comma splice. Even if you change the structure of the second part, that still makes two clauses.

It was explicitly asked and okayed in discord.

ETA: it helps that conveying Names is that layered multiple meaning thing that might be tricky to pull off but is basically a single word.
