I don't know about these heavy hands
well maybe they can pull me up
House Voicelead is a very small House; traditionally one of their people is chosen to be Mother's Voice once a generation or they become other government officials. Darling suspected she would end up in one of the Authority's support wings and when Mother had asked the House to be gathered so she could choose the next Voice Darling hadn't thought twice about it. When Mother selected her she was very surprised; while not the youngest of the House she was definitely one of the least experienced with Bailia's politics and Mother herself. Still, Darling moved to Diadema without hesitation, overjoyed about being chosen and excited to make friends with all the rest of the capital's inhabitants. Friendship between the Voice and the Gaze was supposed to be transcendent but then Darling was surprised when the Gaze turned out to be someone who wanted nothing to do with her. She's only been in Diadema as the Voice for a couple of years and she still gets lost a lot in the castle. She likes the Authority but Zenna freaks her out because she's so intense.
Despite her immense borrowed power Darling is very sweet, careful not to hurt people's feelings but kind of oblivious about the things she does that could be offensive. She's very one-track minded so it hasn't occurred to her that Minnow doesn't like her just because Darling has been a little too forceful about being friends; she just thinks he doesn't like her and can't figure out why. She loves animals and baby-talks at all of them no matter their age. She gets very excited very quickly and loves surprises. When she's channeling Mother's powers she gets a lot more aggressive and unlike herself but this is usual for the Voices. She can speak to Mother at any time; her voice changes when she's talking in these one-sided conversations to a lower, quieter octave and she only ever reaches out to Mother when the queens ask her to. Although Darling would never admit it she still isn't sure that she likes being the Voice because she's a little afraid of her own abilities. Like the Gaze, Voices get a chunk of Mother's power when Mother chooses them. Darling could perform incredible feats of magic but she gets nervous of the power. She's anxious about a lot of things actually.
