Philomath ran a sensitive, frail hand along the cold, rough walls of the long hallway that led up to her sleeping chambers as she tapped her cane on the floor.
Even though she was blind, she had a very good idea of what had happened at the banquet.
She could taste the awkward tension in the air.
She pressed her tongue against the roof of her mouth as she remembered the taste, something salty and tangy yet also metallic.
She partially enjoyed being blind.
Well, she enjoyed the new sensations it brought her.
Ever since she had first been plagued with startling premonitions, each had slowly diminished her sense of sight until she could see nothing at all.
She did in fact know roughly what some of the castle staff looked like due to her premonitions and the opportunities she was given to touch their features.
The world started to spin around her as a throbbing headache stirred in her cranium.
Bells… deep, joyful bells in the castle chapel.
Wedding bells!
There was a blurry outline of three people standing relatively close together.
“By the power vested in me I now pronounce you man and wi-”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8qaoNlUPf
Suddenly two large doors on the south side of the chapel burst open.
“I OBJECT!”
Someone shouted, their voice echoing through the room.
A figure from the audience strode swiftly over to the person in the doorway and dragged them down the hallway.
“How dare you! Sabotaging the wedding! You are a disgrace!”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Le6qvnjst
“Mother- Ah! Mother, please! She does not want to marry him!”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69Z3ISxmDQ
“But I want her to marry him. I am the queen! She shall marry whomever I choose!”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc64e4HtZtU
“Mother-”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhxmgP1Ze1
“Silence!”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjSjYtNGuN
The taller figure let go of the one that objected.
“Remove thyself from my presence, insolent child.”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyiY7rtEHn
“Mother! Listen to me, for the love of Mogshade!”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xVdNcfbfN
“No! You listen to me, child! I said silence!”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zfcAOA89Y
“Mother-”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp7uRUKA9u
“Get out of my castle!”
“Mother-”80Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX91JZDizFn
“NOW!”
Philomath’s vision swirled back to reality, her skull still throbbing.
She groaned as she slumped against the wall of the hallway, clutching her head in her hand as the velvet and coarse frills of her outfit scraped against the walls, the fingers of her free hand tightening around her cane.
“Dear Mystic Forest…”
