Karigan looked at the last four names on the list. They all sounded so boring and old.She threw the sheet down and found a clean piece then, after finding a pen, started writing.
Dear father,
I'm sorry to say this but I cant except any of these gentlemen. Please just give me time to decide on my own, after all this is my marriage were talking about, not yours.
Love, Karigan
She read the short message over a few times, she did not want to sound in denial, even though she was. A last look at the letter then she tucked it away ready to send after she had had lunch.
Alton looked out his window. Through it he could plainly see the training grounds and rider stables. " As I was saying Lord Alton, the King wishes you to depart with the letters soon. However he said you should stay for at least a week, for some well-reserved rest."
" Thank-you I will indeed, tell the king I will leave on the 22nd in exactly a week."
The kings' sectary bowed low, " I will take my leave." the door closed softly, shutting out all the noise in the corridor.
Karigan looked at Condor, Condor looked back. "Trying mental telepathy I see…" Karigan jumped as captain Mapstone strode towards her leading her own gelding.
" Captain! You surprised me."
" I did didn't I? Now Karigan I need you to deliver a message, Kings orders. Its only a short errand so you wont be away to long."
Karigan sighed, she really couldn't be bothered. " Where to?"
"oh, just to Sithtone, it's a small town to the north. The lord there is to receive a royal audience."
" The kings leaving the castle? Why?"
"Apparently something about Eletian camps around the country side there. Actually I think you might go with his envoy, I mean he is dealing with Eletians…"
Karigan rolled her eyes; yes she was the Eletian expert.
" I'll get ready to leave I guess."
So I haven't updated in ages, but I need a few more reviews first. So if you want me to update then post. I want to know what's good, bad or ok about my story.
