Martia and I were summoned to court.
It was early to admit defeat. My memories were rather clear on that.
My Queen was going to win the following year, but I was called to the capital regardless.
I hadn't realised that my actions had changed my destiny. If I knew, I would have probably just kept quiet and incompetent.
Being accepted by my Queen for my achievements was the best possible chance, but being at her side was more important.
Martia and I travelled to the capital with a whole delegation from Stoneyard. It took us so much to arrive, and the journey was all but comfortable.
Which reminded me that I had to solve that issue. Kyre's roads were terrible to travel, both for carriages and solitary riders.
And I was travelling back and forth quite often, in that life.
The Countess had paid much attention not to spend money when not needed. Hence, our treasure was full.
