Stone Mountain Down

by Lady Zarobiti

Joren ruined his family's name. No one can change that. But when his sister Jeana tries to repair her family name by becoming a knight, who will stand in her way? Formerly called Jeana of Stone Mountain.

1. Chapter 1

A/N: I don't think that anyone has used this idea before. If they have, then I haven't seen it.

This takes place a year after Joren died.

Disclaimer: Jeana and any other characters you don't recognize are mine. Everything else is Tamora's, no matter how hard I've tried to bribe her cats (Scrap, Ferret, PeeWee, and Gremlin) with tuna for her manuscripts, or anything else pertaining to her books. :'(

Chapter I

Jeana of Stone Mountain stood in front of her parents with fingers crossed behind her back.

"I don't know," her father stated. "Ever since Joren… I do not think they would even consider you for page training."

This was exactly what Jeana had expected to hear, and she wasn't going to have any of it.

"Joren was a bully. Even you must have seen that when he was home during summer!"

"I don't know, dear," her mother said. "Even if we believe you, it's not proper for a girl to train for knighthood. Keladry of Mindelan tried, and even though she succeeded, look at all the hardships that came of it. Half the kingdom think she's an extended relative of the Stormwings, and the other half think much worse. Do you want to deal with that? No! I won't have our name blotched like that!"

"And it would be a betrayal to Joren to even try," her father stated. "You know that girl corrupted him. That she and her friends started it and that they personally insulted your brother."

"But I could remove the stain on our family name! Bring honor back to this fiefdom! And you know, mother that me and my friend Aisal of Naxan are going to go together."

"First of all, it's my friends and I. Second of all, Aisal of Naxan is not your friend. You met him at court and even if he was, I forbid you to be friends with a Naxan, they are no longer conservative, with all those outlandish ideas! No, you may not go to page training! You will be off to the convent in the morning!."
