NOT A CHAPTER

To Liv's mom thank you for reviewing

In this story Bella is resentful of her father he is keeping her locked up in the castle while she is wishing to be learning how to fight, and other tricks boys of that age learned.

No they generally didn't get to keep their weapons if they where captured. Letting a captured soldier keep their weapon would encourage them to resist, but having them really search her would be kind of awkward and if they find out she is a girl she will have worse things than whether or not she got to keep her tools and her sword. The general order of soldier sacking a city was rape, loot, pillage, and then burn, it wasn't till after the United states Revolutionary war that armies really got a handle on that.

Edward is curious it was very very rare for a man to be allowed in a ladies personal chambers at all, let alone without her apparent knowledge. He figures that Clarke might be worth something. If not he now has a boy in his care who is skilled with a sword and changing allegiances wasn't uncommon during those days he may be hoping to find himself a new knight, or a servant who can defend him if attacked, and if that isn't enough he may be hoping to ransom him back to his family.

At this point the story is trickling into my head in dribs and drabs when I have time I will post but for now my dreams are still spinning up the plot line.
