A Healer's Gift
Wyldon stood outside of the healer's ward, waiting for a very exhausted Duke Baird to tell him. Tell him if his wife was all right, if he had become a father, what had happened in that godforsaken room! In his mind, he ran over the things that could have gone wrong, for the hundredth time.
Finally, Duke Baird came out of the room, to give him one of the most un-conservative like smile he had ever seen.
Duke Baird, a fine man, even if he was not a traditionalist. His son, Nealan, was something in question, but the father was all right. Even though he did have a soft spot for Page Keladry.
Keladry was about to take on her first exams, and possibly her last. Wyldon couldn't make up his mind about her. She was an abomination to the sanctions of knighthood, and yet, she surpassed the boys in most everything. Even her fears, of heights, she tried to surpass them.
Suddenly Wyldon felt a tap on his shoulder. He looked into the knowing eyes of the Duke, and he felt his worries about his wife and child come to surface.
He gave the Duke one nod, to let him know he was still standing and ready to hear, and the Duke Baird let out a sigh.
"Your wife is fine, she's sleeping right now, and…"
And what, Wyldon almost snarled, what of his child!
"And your daughter is sleeping peacefully in her cradle."
Wyldon stared. A daughter! He had never thought about what sex his child would be, but now that he thought about it, a daughter? No son to teach how to ride, how to be a knight, and so many other things.
But then again, what about all the perks that come with having a son? Never mind, Wyldon was very, very glad that he had a daughter.
Duke Baird waited patiently to see whether Wyldon was still breathing.
"Thank you, Duke Baird, for assisting me with something that was dear to my heart. It means very much to me."
"Not at all, Lord Wyldon. It was a pleasure to assist you in some way. I must know what the girl's name is. You must name her, as is the fathers right, and Vivien told me to tell you that she concedes you the naming rights."
Wyldon thought.
"Her name..."Wyldon said hesitantly, "Her name is Keira. Keira of Scanra and Cavall."
A/N: sorry to all y'all boys who are reading this out there, I have a little brother, y' see? ( for those with siblings, that explains all, jk)
