"And if you see anything you like, just tell me." She smiled. It wasn't out of any kind f charity or obligation, Lissa genuinely wanted to do something that could possibly make Jill happy. If that something was a new dress or even just going somewhere she loved, Lissa would do it. She had to leap over this barrier, she had to make an effort to get along with Jill. Shewanted to be something to her, instead of the person that ruined her life.

Ultimately, that was what Lissa believed Jill was most bitter about when it came to her. If Lissa hadn't run for Queen, there would be no need to find the 'lost Dragomir', no need to involve Jill in any of this. Of course, Lissa would no longer be Queen, but would that be so bad? Now that the idea had sunk in, Lissa knew she could do a lot of good here, she only wished that her position wasn't at the cost of Jill's life.

"Court like," she shrugged in answer. "Dull and boring and nothing you would wan to hear about." She smiled. "Jill, you're young, enjoy it. Soon enough they'll sweep you into politics and, with your title as Princess, you'll be judged, scrutinised and…" Lissa let out a weary sigh. "Being a Royal, especially in our family when we are the only two left…it doesn't get any easier."
