Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Lattie nodded and swallowed, trying to think how best to phrase her request. She’d feared he’d outright deny her, or worse, laugh at her. He already knew she was going to do anything in her power to help Sophia. They both knew he didn’t have to entertain her request. Still, it was worth a try. Final...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

His quick motion caught her off guard, and for a few long seconds Lattie teetered precariously on her toes. She regained her balance and looked up at him, her face turning red with embarrassment. She wasn’t used to men getting so close to her physically or speaking with her so earnestly. The castle ...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

“Well, he doesn’t sit right with me, either,” agreed Lattie, frowning as her mind conjured an image of the knight who had always seemed cold, gruff, and unfriendly to her. She felt unsurprised to hear that Abbassy was likely conning poor Sophia, playing on her emotions for the sake of his Lord, who ...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Lattie deftly plucked the item tossed toward her out of the air, looking at it carefully. Though illiterate, she could recognize the symbol, as just about anyone in Ibaria. Well, that proved he was who he said he was, but not necessarily that she could trust him, she thought, unsure about the man cr...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Simon shook his head. "I am Nathaniel Quentier's closest confidante. If he planned to wed Lady Peryonai so soon, he would have told me. And he certainly wouldn't have sent me away on such a trivial missi-" He stopped mid-sentence, his mouth dropping open just a hair. He quickly closed it a...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Arrogant, pig-headed and up his own arse... Well at least he was self aware, thought Lattie, her temper growing worse by the second as he spoke to her. "Yes, but I believe the word I was searching for was 'unimpressive'," she said hotly. Strictly speaking, unimpressive was not a word that ...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

"Perhaps Deregach has no idea that Lady Peryonai is even here," countered Simon thoughtfully. "She is only a woman, and besides, how would news of her kidnapping have traveled so fast? We only arrived days ago, and I doubt anyone would be able to pin me to the kidnapping. When I retri...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

It was with staggering determination that Lattie set out to find Thane Ulrius, a man she had never seen, and who she had no way to identify other than the robes of the Taerohim that he may or may not still be wearing. Instead of being intimidated by the task, the girl felt inexplicably excited. Soph...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Simon had never been the type of man to respond quickly without thinking. Instead, he listened carefully to her and nodded his head, but remained silent. From his traveling bag, he removed a packet of herbs for tea. Peppermint and chamomile were selected. It would help calm their nerves a little, wh...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Lattie nodded her head in understanding, but her face was still drawn into an expression of concern. She wondered if Sophia would have survived if she had been born in the shoes of a servant, then tried to push that dark thought away. Speculating about those kinds of things wouldn't do any good, she...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

After all the soap had been washed from Sophia's hair, Lattie carefully helped her step out of the tub and onto a roughly woven rug that soaked up the water that dripped from her body. Lattie moved with a quick sureness, retrieving a large swath of fabric and helping Sophia wrap it around herself be...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

He lifted one eyebrow, trying to assess her. My reputation proceeds me, he thought, and then chuckled. "So I see," he agreed. He was unsure whether her comment was meant as a compliment or a barb, but decided it didn't matter. No matter the intention, the statement seemed to be true. He wo...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Lattie lifted Sophia's hair and twisted it into a loose braid before laying it over the woman's shoulder. The ends had dipped into the water and now curled softly under, dark from the moisture retained, and little drops of water accumulated and then dripped down Sophia's chest. The maid reached for ...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Simon approved of her straight forward manner, and he nodded his head respectfully toward her. "I am Simon Abbassy, the Knight of Isler." He would wait and see if she introduced herself, he decided. There was something no-nonsense about her manner that almost reminded him of Nathaniel. She...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

Confusion passed over Lattie's features, and her brow set into a frown of perplexed consternation. Slowly, she nodded. "I'll deliver that message, promise!" she vowed, but secretly she wondered at the meaning. Perhaps that Taerohim would tell her what Sophia's cryptic message was about, bu...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

A message to Nathaniel? From who? Simon's mouth opened, poised to ask who her lord was, but he snapped it shut, thinking. He was being paranoid, he told himself. Lord Peryonai would never send a single messenger, let alone an unarmed woman, to deliver a message of such importance. More likely, this ...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

"Isler Castle?" repeated Simon, the words thick as syrup on his tongue, but they left a bitter aftertaste. The Knight couldn't think of Isler Castle without wincing. So much had happened, and all of it made him question not only who he was, but who he could trust. His best friend, Nathanie...

"Boy!" barked Agro at a passing servant. He had poked his head through the door and flagged down the first person he saw. "Go find Lattie. Tell her to draw a bath for the lady. Miss Peryonai wants to take a nice soak ." The young man, hardly seventeen, hurried down the halls at a...

Re: Amidst War, Peace Shall Undoubtedly Suffer

"Thank you, sir, thank you again. Please, won't you stay for supper?" Simon shook his head wearily to the farmer. Hours ago, a fire had started in the farmer's home. The man and his family had been lucky that the knight happened to be riding on a wide, dirt path by their home at the time. ...
