Well, the tricky bit is basically this. Alyra is a Domina of the Wild and so she's all about the nature of choice, and so she has to technically respect the woman's "right to choose," more or less, but in the animistic world that is in Nobilis, a "human spirit" can actually make a "choice" before it is even born, and she has to respect that also, because it may in fact be a "choice removed". Meanwhile, she's got to deal with the father as well. So there are a lot of conflicting choices and she's trying to work out how best to simultaneously take care of all of them.
Meanwhile, it seems that her predecessor has had a significantly different interpretation of Innocence than she might herself have, and she has to work that out as well...
By the way, Lichtenhart, I may need Keys' help for something, so.
