Merry Christmas!

No worries! Hope you have a wonderful holiday period especially with the current year haha :3

Elise kept herself seated as she began to listen to Lady Cheldarine tell her tale, that this Warlord King Ozragad was not as strong as he seemed. Somehow, she didn’t believe that for a second, but then maybe there was more to it than meets the eye. Frowning as she could see the hurt expression on the other womans face as she expressed views on the war. There was no denying this war had destroyed everything for both Kingdoms, Eorzia had seemingly faired better due to its larger land and riches they were able to keep people on the fields and reap the rewards of fresh crops. With their lands being much greener it meant that it didn’t need much tending too so when people did drop due to the war it didn’t leave too much of a lasting effect.

“I’m sorry.” It was an automatic response because she sympathised with the loss of the other womans husband. Though she could do nothing to make it right or any better she did like this woman as she had showed nothing but kindness towards her and it didn’t feel in any way forced. Thinking back on the journey here there hadn’t been much to look at and it was far different from what she expected, barely any sort of greenery and somewhat dark and dreary to most foreigners. Elise was beginning to understand why that was.

“It makes sense why he was more interested in gaining land more than the dowry that comes alongside marriage. I did not realise it was quite so bleak here. You’d never be able to tell, he doesn’t openly state this. It matters not, as much as I said I wouldn’t marry it’s not my choice. It is down to my father; my say means nothing back home.” Tradition back in Eorzia meant that she would be forced to marry whomever her father deemed fit. “It was simply an empty threat because I can’t control my own temper.”

Shaking her head, she rubbed her arms feeling an odd sense of guilt at her outburst earlier. Now learning much more in the short space of talking with Lady Cheldarine than she had in her whole time here. “I…” Hesitating slightly as she sighed, “I will try to make it work.” Admitting more to herself that she would end up marrying this Warlord whether she liked it or not, making it work would be the easier route.

“What do you mean once followed him?”

Furrowing her brow at the mention of Zakylwe, a name she didn’t know but she assumed it was someone who had been important in this Kingdom. “Is it because of the peace? Surely, they can see what this war has done? That it’s the best option whether short term or long term.” A part of her didn’t really expect their marriage to last, deep down she did fear he would have her killed off and pass it off as natural causes. It was probably her overreacting of course as she liked to think of worst case scenarios, leaning towards the negative rather than the positive.
Hahaha it's always the way!
Elise felt herself hesitate as Lady Cheldarine caught on, she never expected the woman to take note and realise that her cousin had been a little rough handed with her. Not that it should matter, but Elise didn’t what to voice the fact he had been rough with her as she didn’t want to appear like some weak little girl. “Wooing me? Please I doubt he would even know how to woo someone nowadays.” Sighing softly to herself as she could never imagine this King even start to woo a lady and court them, not that she even wanted it to happen herself.

It was strange hosting this woman, she showed no outward signs of wanting to cause her harm which was refreshing but she still found it hard to trust even though Lady Cheldarine was quite easy to talk too. Elise knew she was merely overthinking everything, but it was hard when even her family didn’t seem to care too much about her as their letters spoke of the promise to her brother and this wedding. Not one hint of if she was okay.

Watching as the other woman reached the window, she found herself furrowing her brow as the question was posed to her, something that had crossed her mind her mind briefly, but it passed by without a second thought. “Well… I had considered it, but I guess I just assumed he was pressured for it by the council.”

“I’ll be brutally honest, my own family and myself included expected this to be a trap and well too good to be true. My father originally threw the offer out to appease the court back home, not for it to be accepted.” Leaning forward on her seat as she watched Lady Cheldarine curious to why Ozragad had pursued peace, “Tell me then, why is he pursuing the option of peace? As you say peace doesn’t really suit him, not when stories of this fearsome warlord proceeds him.”
Bump~
Folding her arms as she settled herself amidst the cushioned divans, she watched the auburn-haired woman follow suit and she found herself frowning slightly as she knew she had caused herself quite some trouble over her actions. Raising her eyebrows at the idea of telling Lady Cheldarine what had happened to help ease the rift that had been created was not something she had expected. If she was honest, she had thought that maybe she had arrived here to tell her the wedding was off and she was now to be a prisoner, but it was quite the opposite. “There isn’t really much to tell…”

Elise trailed off as she looked towards her servant nodding to approve the request, after all some tea would be good as she knew the drink would warm her up finding herself rather cold as of late. “What are you doing?” Tilting her head as she watched the other stand moving to the door to listen for something, it was quite strange but when she returned to her seat and explained she felt rather silly not assuming that. “Oh right, of course. Though I doubt they’d bother eavesdropping when all my ladies are loyal to your King. I'm sure they have great pleasure relaying to him of my sleepless nights and irritable mood.”

Sighing as she shook her head it seemed that she was not about to stop at finding out what had happened, she doubted she would leave without knowing that information. “I…” Hesitating as she cringed a little before continuing, May have had a few choice words to him when he stumbled across me in one of the libraries.”

Self consciously her hand went to her throat touching the skin there as she remembered what had happened, “He said something that got under my skin and I retaliated spitefully saying who could love him all whilst ending it with a bold claim of how I would never marry him.” Not really going into too much detail but enough to get an understanding on what had happened between them.

“So, until I reconsider my choices I am to be locked away in my rooms.”

Shifting in her seat as she glanced towards the door, she pulled the shawl closer around her shoulders seeking the warmth the material provided. “I don’t think you can fix this, for this to be fixed I would need to apologise and revoke my words that I said to him.” Elise knew that she probably wouldn’t sound sincere enough to consider it an apology, not when she when she was still angry with him.
I think shorter posts will be good for the flow of conversation!
