Lady Pauline looked out the window of her tower chambers at Castle Redmont, and then wearily called for Kate.
"Kate! Please come here!" The door to her studies opened quickly and obediently and in slid her one and only daughter, Kate. The only difference was, she had raven black hair, and wore the grey and green mottled cloak of a Ranger.
"You called, Mother?" she asked politely, but Pauline could see she was bursting to make a comment about her earlier talk with Baron Arald about Halt the Ranger. Looking around at all the books, Pauline sighed and went on ahead.
"As you know, I never told you who your father was. Well it's time I told you."
Kate sat erect and blew the hair out of her face.
"Who is he?" she asked, still poised,(after all, her mother was legendary) but inwardly eager.
"It's… It's Halt."
Da Da Da!
AN- Just a taste. If you like it, I'll keep going.
