My people have spoken to me about Eliza. She was orphaned in the attack. Eliza has a brother, so the Ev kingdom is in no hurry to get her back. Well, that's just fine. She's welcome to stay. Delightful child.

Palace security have informally adopted the girl and she is welcome in the kitchens and the advisors have banded together to ( Read more... )

Well, it turns out that our head of security has a brother. And he has created quite a stir and I don't mean just for the maids, who are delighted to have someone who looks nearly identical to Wyatt Cain and is unlikely to be courting a princess in  the near future.

I say unlikely, well, whatever the likelihood there existed before has ( Read more... )

DG'S AWAKE!!!!!!

This is good news, of course. It would seem, however, she either remembers little about the terrible deads which have been vested onto her or is in denial. I'm not sure what to do about this.

My husband came into find me. My girls are alive! They are alive!  I couldn't help the tears that fell, even as I realised that my daughters needed their father more.

It turns out further, that the two Gales, nor Azkadellia's guard, none other than Wyatt Cain's son, Jeb, were in less than prerequisite attire. Then DG's guards, apparently more... professional than Azkadellia's, were ( Read more... )

Ahamo and I felt it was necessary to confront Cain. The man was in a position of power and he'd used it to get close to DG. Apparently, to the point of courting gifts. It seems we are too late.

Better to admit defeat and see if the relationship can sustain itself. Gods know I don't want to end up my mother.

January 6

Well, I suppose I could say tea with my daughters could have gone better. Well, worse can scarcely be imagined. The pair of them, upon arrival before me, looked ready to bolt from the start. Never in my life had my daughters feared me. But there it was, in their eyes, as clear as day.

They both had their very excellent reasons for not ( Read more... )
