Many thanks to Todger65 for editing! ***** Isonei was alone and freezing when she woke. Her mouth was dry again, but she could see the teapot still sitting on the table. Gingerly, she rose from the bed, feeling a little dizzy, and made her way to the table sinking into a chair. The teapot was cold and very heavy but she managed to pour some into one of t...
I really can't thank Todger65 enough for continuing to help edit these chapters! It is greatly appreciated! ***** They retired to their room giggling and Isonei could tell that Arissa was already quite taken with the Daga. Amay and the other maids helped them out of their gowns and jewelry and into their night dresses. They were left alone in relatively...
Huge thanks to Todger65 for editing! ***** Another week had passed before the priests had decreed Isonei fit to travel. It was decided that she should be taken directly to the Torga Kroscur; the less she had to travel the better it would be for her delicate health. A break in the weather, alternating rains and snows finally coming to an end and allowing th...
She had bought her costume from ebay three weeks before the party was announced, and Martina was more excited about the day than she was about Christmas. It wasn't that Halloween was anything special when she was younger, it was just that her parents had been strict and hadn't allowed her to go out with friends until she was eighteen. Now that she was livin...
19.1: Moonsong ----------------- Erik rubbed his eyes with the palms of his hands and sighed, his breath ruffling at some of the papers on his desk. Neat writing covered the pages, all concerning the now-bustling village of Suravale, nestled in amongst the ruins of the once-great city of the same name. He went over them again, the grainy feeling in his e...
Huge thanks to Todger65 for helping edit and Nthusiastic for beta reading and asking good questions! ***** Halloc Urroth had been summoned immediately. Isonei wasn't sure how she should be feeling, she tried to soothe Draeseth as a distraction from thinking about it. The Halloc had insisted he remain for the examination quite possibly as punishment, the pr...
Chapter 13 - Spoiled Brat, Shadow Thieves, and a Job After Christie left the group the companions made their way to the Leaky Cup Inn. Natalie trailed behind feeling lost, depressed and unwanted. The elf wrinkled her nose at the stench of the docks; the smell of fresh and spoiled fish was overwhelming. She frowned when they got to the inn. It was like the o...
(This one is a bit more story heavy.) Isonei woke to Draeseth kissing her neck and moving his hand over her as if touching her for the first time. There was a bright line on the wall that told her the sun had risen and was shining brightly through the barely parted drapes. "My Isonei." The Torgan murmured pressing himself urgently against her again. "My...
Many thanks to Nthusiastic for all of her help with editing, beta reading, and making good suggestions! ***** Sitting across from Draeseth and Lislora, Isonei tried to lighten the subject. "I'll need to find you both a wedding present. The usual gift my family gives in Leria is a pair of golden cups inscribed with blessings, that doesn't seem appropriate...
Once again, huge thanks to Todger65 for helping me edit! ***** The tunic Draeseth chose to wear to lunch was one that looked like it was made to go with her gown, black with the same flowers as her dress, embroidered in her dress' shade of grey. Walking through the halls and courtyards on his arm, Isonei felt giddily happy. Getting to bring her Draeseth in...
