Virelai rushed after her mother in a cold sweat.
“Mother! Mother-”76Please respect copyright.PENANAugRwu4SJI9
“Yes, child?!”76Please respect copyright.PENANAzttOZBjBCM
The queen snapped, rubbing her temples.
Virelai hesitated for a moment before replying.
“Where did Leveret go, Mother?”76Please respect copyright.PENANAanUNpyRrWT
Morwenna sighed.
“He is… ill.”76Please respect copyright.PENANA3OL47pcWMa
She hissed.
“Is he-”76Please respect copyright.PENANAaUf46YSmbT
“He is perfectly fine, Virelai.”76Please respect copyright.PENANAAixeNZ8yXK
“Mother, may I please-”76Please respect copyright.PENANAFvbBTsR1li
“No you may not. Go to the reception. This union is already off to a shaky start. Do not make it topple.”
Morwenna growled.76Please respect copyright.PENANAs1jLIhhpdw
“I shan’t, Mother. Do not fret.”76Please respect copyright.PENANAJgwLnLr1ei
Morwenna glared over her shoulder as she started walking away.
“Shall not, Virelai. Contractions are for peasants and witches.”
Virelai nodded.
“Pardon my ignorance, Mother. It… shall not happen again.”
She whispered, clasping her hands together.
“Splendid. Now, go to the reception, Virelai. Punctuality is polite and polite is the key to this union.”
Morwenna’s whisper echoed, disappearing down the hall.76Please respect copyright.PENANAOSoApliSM2
“Indeed, Mother.”
Virelai agreed before walking back down the hall towards the chapel.
“Madam…”76Please respect copyright.PENANAO78Nz4SL2X
Philomath said, carefully choosing her words as she stepped out from behind a decorative suit of armour.
“You shall have to tell her the news at some point. She is a wise girl. She shall get suspicious eventually.”
“Nonsense. She just married that prince. Her mind shall be… occupied.”
“What if it is not, your majesty?”76Please respect copyright.PENANAkNrksybTM9
“Then-”
Suddenly, her husband laid a hand on her shoulder.
“Morwenna?”76Please respect copyright.PENANAHGoYDyNKup
The queen flashed around, a smile suddenly fixed on her face.
“Yes?”
“Whom were you talking to?”76Please respect copyright.PENANATDt6CtwvCz
He inquired, drumming a finger on her shoulder.
Morwenna chuckled.
“No-one, dear.”76Please respect copyright.PENANAu68IOx4ZoA
Thadewin blinked for a moment.
“If you insist.”
