  1. The king sat on his throne, just as he had the day before. The girl who had been with him yesterday was with him again, as was the girl he’d just taken. Both cuddled into his sides. “What is it, dear?”
  2. The other eight suitors, all nobles, led the way to the throne room. “Trust Komat, myself, and those who he trusts. No one else, yet.”
  3. This time, they were all called together. @Argenti
  4. She released her hand. “Lay low. Trust Komat and his timing. Then… maybe. Even for me, the future is fog.”
  5. “Yes, it was. It brought you much joy, and you loved being with your friends.”
  6. “The stars. It was your job to study them.”
  7. She closed her eyes and looked down. “Many are from your schooling days. Others gazed the stars at your side.”
  8. “Yes, dear.”
  9. So when they turn 16 they get a surgery that makes them “pretty” but before that they’re “ugly”. MC really wants to be pretty, but one of her ugly friends ran away and the government makes her find her friend before she can be pretty
  10. She chuckled. “I mean, he’s replaced years of our memories for two weeks of rule.”
  11. “Two weeks. And it’s caused years of suffering.”
  12. I recently got a recommendation for Sky’s End from Elan and it was really good, and I’ve been reading Uglies which is good
  13. Being blind, she heard the disbelief. “Dear, I’m a Clear. My power protected the truth in my mind.”
  14. “Two weeks.”
  15. She pushed forward, but the running wasn’t kind to her.
  16. “The memories in your head aren’t real. Only the last two weeks have been real.”
  17. “You did. The king took them, and memories of them, from you”
  18. He wasn’t himself today. A noble in town thinks he’s not all he was expected to be. Thinks Komat should step down, let someone else take his place. He thinks that he isn’t doing the things the people need. Which is crazy, he’s dedicated his life to people and he knows it. Still, it kills me seeing it get to him like this.
  19. Fair point Newna laid face down in her bed
  20. He muttered luck as he left.
