Magic's Dilemma

Summary: It would have happened sooner or later. A continuation of Vanyel's story had he not died.

Disclaimer: This Story stinks! The Valdemar stories rock! Do you really think they could have been written by the same person?!? Well, anyways, this does not belong to me.

Chapter 7

The palace was hectic. All the nobles were trying to get new clothes. The staffs were organizing the venue. It was time… time for Jisa and Treven's coronations. Treven was doing okay, as he had not really known Randale or Shavri, but Jisa…

Jisa was not doing very well with the torture of her "parents" passing. They had both meant much to her, and to loose both of them together like that was unimaginable. In the public view, she was acting like a proper queen to be, and mourning, but not letting it get in the way of her day-to-day responsibilities. These responsibilities had developed much recently with the deaths and her being chosen a king's own.

Treven was unable to help her deal with her emotions and she found herself spending a lot of time with her "Uncle" Van. Since hr had been bereft of Tylendel when he was about her age, as well as grieving now for Randale and Shavri, he always seemed to know what to say when she was down. He always had!

Today was no different in that respect, she could definitely be found with Vanyel, but today was the day of her coronation, and the end of the official mourning period. Father, I do not think I can make it through the coronation ceremony. It is a day I never wished to see. I… I knew he would pass away, but I kept convincing myself it would not be that week. I know I can handle it, but its just too much with their deaths so recently.

It's okay sweet. I helped Shavri with her responsibilities in the last bit so I can help out, giving you more time to mourn in private, as you can not do so in public after the coronation. I will also be there for you today. I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT. Vanyel sent this message along their link so that she may feel his sincere conviction. Now though, you must go see Treven and get ready for the ceremony.

With that, he dried her tears and stood up. He helped her to her feet and gave her a quick hug. She returned it, before muttering a thanks and turning to go into the Royal Wing of the palace. He turned to go into the Herald's Wing. He wished to get ready, he had not been called "peacock" as a boy for nothing, but he also wished to tune his lute before the ceremony. Stefen and he were going to play a duet during it.

Please Review I know my writing stinks, but how else am I to improve it?

Thanks to my reviewers, pendragonbaby07 and Knyghtshade.

Also, thanks to my anonymous reviewer, I hope that I was able to correct some of the issues which you pointed out.
