Ilde receives a hug first, simply because she's the first to stand and greet her, and Isobel gets one next. Both women are greeted warmly, as Katherine has no idea what's happened at home and is happy to see them both in person (Ilde, to see how she's faring after her time in the fog; though they've already discussed it; and Isobel because she hasn't seen her in quite a while).

"It's good to see both of you," she replies, and to Ilde, she holds up her cup of coffee. "And I just arrived. I heard the two of you out here and thought I'd say hello. Mind if I join you, or would three be a crowd?"
