Fairs' Point Preview

[mescott]

As I'm making my way to the end of the submittable draft of Fairs' Point, I thought I'd post a little bit from the beginning to whet your appetite.  Just a companionable moment on a spring evening in Astreiant - well, and also a suicide, a missing astrologer, and the Matter of Malfiliatre...

Consider my appetite whetted! This was lovely. I have such a soft spot for domesticity. The bit at the end was intriguing!

Thank you! The Matter of Malfiliatre - the dispute over the title and the subsequent repudiation of debts - drives much of the action. Nico's being... optimistic, I fear. ;-)

I'm so intrigued!
Can't wait, thank you for the lovely morsel of domesticity, gossip (Eslingen is such a gossip, lol) and hints of intrigue!
:D
I'm a happy Pointer :)

Thank you! And Philip is a gossip - but it's all useful gossip! ;-)

Love the witticisms and the domestic scene. Plot sounds intriguing too - definitely looking forward to this!

Established partners, domesticity, gossip, food - wonderful! And hints of intrigue, and new characters, and just generally Points! Can't wait :)

Thank you! And this is just the beginning.... ;-)

Thanks! The Matter of Malfiliatre, both the dispute over the title and the repudiation of debts, is one of the keys to the plot....
