Kapitel 150: Irritation

26 April, 1360. Westerhaven Palace, Islia

Camilla sat in the shade of an ancient tree in the eastern gardens, fanning herself irritably. It wasn't even May yet and the humidity, combined with the rising heat, were starting to make the days uncomfortable for the palace's occupants. The very slight breeze was nowhere near enough to cool the day down.

Camilla could now appreciate why in the past, the court had always fled Westerhaven for the cooler north, before spring truly took hold.

This year though, it would be impossible to move north while war continued to rage against the Moraigthians. Barring an absolute miracle, the remaining court would have to suffer through a hot, humid southern summer for their own safety.
