  1. "The--" Ayia began shaking. "Fad..." "On it." He immediately left the tent to return to the battle. Ayia grabbed Martin's shoulder. "You're okay? Tell me you're still okay!"
  2. Ayia chuckled sadly. "No. I'm really not." Just then, Fadran burst into the room, Martin slung over his shoulder. "Hey, uh--" "Martin?" Ayia yelped. She rushed over to grab him. "Hon, are you okay???"
  3. "Alright." Fadran slung Martin's arm over his shoulder and started bringing him back to the camp proper.
  4. "Calm down. You're going to be fine." Fadran glanced over the wall. "Do I need to get you out of here? What do you need?"
  5. Fadran threw up an earthen wall between the monsters and Martin, sliding across the grass and grabbing his arm. "Hey!"
  6. Ayia looked out at the battlefield. "I shouldn't be avoiding that, but..." She held up a hand to grasp her staff; it was shaking.
  7. “Official approval ratings are up by…” the scribe flipped through his ledger, “eight percent. Doesn’t seem like much, but it’s higher than we expected from simply increasing castle staff wages.” Ivian nodded. “Some unprecedented publicity, I see. I’ll take what I can get.” “Overall, it seems like the general atmosphere of the palace has improved. Increased productivity, general happiness… the works.” ”Very well.” Ivian tapped his desk. “Is that all?” ”Yessir.” ”Then you’re dismissed.” Ivian waved the scribe away and fell back into his thoughts. It’ll be the city next… after that the hamlets. Step by step, this kingdom will be mine.
  8. “Hi. We’re back.” Wendy patted Katie on the head. ”Where were you?” Katie asked through a mouthful of ice cream cone. “And what were ya doing?” ”Clearing the water,” Wendy replied, winking. “Huh?” Wendy chuckled and wrapped her arms around the two girls. “Don’t worry about it.”
  9. Wendy took it gratefully and placed a sisterly peck on his cheek.
  10. “Sure. I’d like a friend.” Wendy smiled.
  11. “Don’t pay for my night out.” Wendy replied. “I’ve been saving all this for days so I could do something fun with my kids, but then you just swooped in and took the point out of it.”
  12. "Well good for him." Wendy took in a breath and held out her hand. "Can I apologize? Just... for real, this time? I'm really, really sorry."
  13. "She can't be all bad if she at least draws the line at children."
  14. "No." Wendy shook her head. "No, I don't. But she's alright, and... that's all that matters."
  15. "I just couldn't... I couldn't stand being mad at you." Wendy pulled away from his arms and wiped at her eyes. "You seemed so helpless. You didn't seem like you were in control, or trying to pull any strings or... well, anything like that. Like when I thought--" her voice caught. "When I thought they'd taken Arabella to the Raveness... and I couldn't do anything..."
  16. “I don’t know. But I’d like to try.”
