That night was like the last two, I watched Aurther perform, we danced then we walked around the castle battlements talking as we usually did.

"So tell me about your family," I said as we walked walked next to each other.

"There isn't much to tell of my life," he weakly smiled at me.

"Okay can I give a guess," I asked giving him an encouraging smile. He nodded back to me grinning, "Okay well judging by your sword skills on stage you have had experince fighting or are a really good actor, your physical appearance matches that of a strong male line, your hair color is from your mother, So if I was to guess your father was a soldier turned actor and your mother was a actress who ran away from home."

He then had a look of shock on his face his jaw partially open, "How did you know? Who told you?"

"Did I guess right," I asked a little excited. He looked away from me shame on his face as he walked to the wall looking out to the night, "What is it?"

"You guessed correctly," he said not looking at me, "Almost perfectly but my father was a poor knight who lost all his lands and wealth when I was young. My mother was from a rich family that also became poor and died from a sickness that later took my mother when I was five. When I was seven my father and I joined the theater troop. He was the one who taught me how to use a sword, honor, as well as hand to hand combat. But he was killed two years after we joined the troop trying to stop Highway men from stealing the small amount of money we had. Since then the other actors have been raising me."

"Oh," I said walking to his side placing a hand on his shoulder. He looked at me as I smiled at him taking his hand in mine, "Your past and title matter not to me. I very much enjoy your company and hope you will stay with me even after the festival is over."

"But you deserve a man better than me," he tried to argue back.

I smiled at him moving closer to him wrapping my arms around his neck, "Would you fight along side me, defend my family with your last breath, honor my choices no matter what?"

"Yes but," I held my hand up to his lips stopping any other words of protest.

"Then you are the perfect man for me," I said kissing his cheek, "Which if I am correct means that I am now courting you for your hand. If you wish for my hand as well?"

"You make it sound like I am a fair lady of the court and you a noble man," he chuckled a little.

"Well if I must to make it official then I guess I am," I smiled back.

"Then my She-Knight I agree to your courtship,"He smiled at me.

"Splendid," I said bowing at the waist like a noble man. I looked up at Aurther trying to resist the over whelming urge to laugh at our behavior. His face was turning red as he tried to holding his laughter as we both started laughing uncontrollable laughing.

"Come," I said as grabbing his hand as our laughter died down, "Lets tell our families the news."

"I agree," Aurther said as we ran back to the festivals. We then parted to tell our families the good new. I walked over to the table Bowen, father, Kara, and Abiageal were sitting at. Brother Gilbert was with the theater troop so Aurther would tell him that we were now courting each other.

"So how did it go," father was the first to speak as I came to the table.

"I'm courting him now," I said as if it wasn't a big deal as smiles spread on their faces.

"It's no big deal," I smiled at them. They then started laughing as did I. I told them what we spoke about telling them about his family and as I had said to him his title and past mattered little. As I spoke I saw Kara and Bowen hand Abiageal three gold coins each. Abiageal happily took the coins smiling as she drank some wine.

"What was that about," I asked.

"The three had a bet going," father said, "They were beating when you would finally start courting Aurther."

"And I won," Abiageal cheered, "Soon it will whether you have a boy or girl! I'm beating girl!"

"Oh Stars," I groaned, "Let's just hope you lot don't scar him off first."

"I don't think speaking of our future children will scar me off my dear," Aurther said coming up behind me wrapping his arms around me kissing my cheek.

"Oh boy save that for the wedding night," Bowen chuckled. We chuckled along with him.

That next morning Aurther had joined us for breakfast that morning in the garden and even sat next to me as we ate. He and I then spent the next ten days and nights with each other barely ever leaving each others side. The last night of the festival we dinned together, danced as we usually did then walked around the castle walls. We were enjoying holding each other as we looked out at the clear night naming the stars we saw till Travers came to us saying he had something he wished to speak to me about alone. Begrudgingly I separated from Aurther kissing is cheek before he walked out of hearing range but not out of sight.

"What is it you wanted to speak to me about," I asked trying my hardest to keep any flames or smoke from coming out of my mouth

"I just wished to know what types of flowers you liked my lady," he said stepping closer to me.

"I like wild iris the best," I replied raising an eyebrow, "Why do you ask?"

"I only wish to know what flowers to put on your grave," he said then took out a knife he had hidden behind his back. Before I had time to react he had plunged the knife into my chest. He was faster than he looked, as soon as the knife had pierced my flesh he pushed me over the castle wall with a satisfied grin.

"Ava," Aurther yelled running to me as I fell over the wall. I heard father and Abiageal roar in pain before I felt my flame burn, and my world went completely black.
