  1. The camaraderie, and bright gaiety of the Festival time was over with, and Innloine was sad to see it leave. Though she would never admit it, there were times Innloine felt positively stifled by the day to day duties of setting an example as a noble for their people.

     

    It would be so much easier to be one of them, she thought, to be cared for and sheltered without thought of Daes Dae'mar. At least, the little people played their version of it, so much as it was, but they had no real understanding of subtle machinations.

     

    "Or of Illian fishing tax." Innloine shuffled the papers she had been studying into a large leather sheaf and dropped the thing with a disgusted sigh. She didn't think there was brain enough in anyone's head to fit all of the senseless tax laws from so many different countries, but it was important to at least make some sort of an effort to study them, especially when she'd be quizzed by her tutor at any time about these kinds of minutia.

     

    To be doing this when yesterday the city had been aglow with excitement. Innloine's memories of her first real Festival of Lights were bittersweet, however. She had been making good headway with the son of a shoemaker the night before, at least until Taringail had appeared, and with a drunken grin like some maleficent goat had grabbed Innloine's legs and pulled her straight off the barrel they'd been sitting on and into the mud. Innloine's thoughts became dark. Oh, he would pay.

     

    Resolved, Innloine rose from the small writing desk she had been sitting at and strode out into the hall, leaving behind the tax papers and all of their drudgery.

  2. I'll just do Anvaere, actually. I blame my laziness. She'll be in her mid-teens.

    what about innloine instead? :oops: i just kinda had dalresin's marriage timeline already planned out. not trying to be picky bitch!
