Time had been hard to keep track of since moving to the bunker, without the sun and moon to act as a guide, it was nearly impossible to be sure. Indra had lost track after a day, one single day and it had been a month- or, she thought it must've been a month. At least. Every hour of every day, everything looked the same beneath ground. There had been an adjustment period to living beneath the ground, she and the rest of her people were used to living amongst the trees, with a bountiful supply of fresh air and fresh food, above ground they had relative freedom. In the bunker it was different, her people had to share the already limited space with their oldest, greatest enemy.
Trikru and Azgeda had been at war for many years, years longer than any conflict that she could remember and now they were expected to live together as Wonkru and forget about those conflicts. Wonkru or not, Indra's priority would always be towards her people and Azgeda were not her people. She didn't believe they'd ever be truly loyal to Octavia or Wonkru, after all- Nia had never been interested in joining the coalition when Lexa was Heda. Queen Nia only aimed to serve herself, she always had a motive and the fact that Indra had noticed her sniffing around their new commander had only set alarm bells off in her head.
Indra knew that she couldn't allow Octavia to fall into the trap of trusting Nia, those that trusted the ice queen often grew to regret it- if she allowed them to live long enough to do so. Indra knew she'd be a fool to underestimate Nia, or the threat she posed to Octavia and the rest of Wonkru- if it had been up to her, none of Azgeda would've been permitted to enter the bunker, as it happened... It wasn't up to her.
Walking down the hall, her gaze flickered to movement up ahead- locking onto the figure that had just rounded the corner ahead. Speak of the devil and they shall appear in front of you. Hand subconsciously drifting to rest upon the hilt of her sword. As the pair approached each other, Indra slowed to a complete stop, unable to keep her dislike for the other woman off of her face "Nia" she spoke as if in greeting but her tone was cold, hostile and unwelcoming.
