Cosette rose early the next morning and dressed, utterly dreading each and every step which brought her closer to the day's events.
Which was worse, she wondered? The upcoming contest for the revel roles? Or being saddled with the Princess and her insipid lot? At least the latter offered a...
From the window of the carriage, Cosette stared at the manner which loomed ever closer. Her sister, Lady Lucinda Keath, resided within the Keath estate within Blackgate for most of the year. Her husband, Malcolm, tended to travel between it and the proper Keath holdings located outside of the...
Pleasantries about the long trip, unsuccessful enquiries into what is going on in the north, and a general description of certain tapestries or portraits donned on the walls they passed later and they were finally alone.
One specific portrait made Cosette pause, just for a moment. The woman...
Veora had come to terms with Cosette traveling south into the capitol by now and calmed down once she parsed what that meant.
The future queen of the north could keep her head, most likely. Almost definitely. So long as she was careful to ensure that Cosette could not get caught up in any...
If there was anything Cosette truly hated, it was suffering through tedious, stuffy and downright suffocating meals with nobility. Her own family was no exception to this rule.
If anything, they were the reason for it. Blast it all, of course her father had traveled to Selmire to welcome Lord...

Things had grown terribly tense at Mountainkeep, with Lord Grimaldβs impending departure looming. It was agreed that Cosette and her entourage, and Ser Day would be accompanying Giles southward. Cosette would be stopping at her estate. The rest would venture onward, toward the capital. And...
Nothing couldβve prepared Sylas for the arrival of the post a couple of weeks later.
Envoys from Upsala did indeed arrive, sent for by Lord Grimald as a means to quell his bannermen. He expected them to intimidate his daughter into confessing that she was acting out. Prove in some way that she...
Leaving the dining area mightβve been the best thing to escape the awkwardness, but it did leave Cosette with one small problem.
She hadnβt the foggiest idea where Veora had run off to, and Mountainkeep was absolutely massive. Even with Veoraβs extensive tour, she knew there were plenty of...
Veoraβs birthday party was every bit as dull as Cosette had feared it would be. Mountainkeep was filled to the brim with the stuffy, clout chasing aristocrats that made her skin crawl. She did her best to keep up appearances, not wanting to cause any sort of scene. Veora mightβve been...
When Cosette received word that she had been invited to the northernmost territory for a birthday feast, she was utterly appalled. She could think of few things more frivolous and wasteful than a banquet celebrating a single womanβs day of birth.
βOh come now Cocoβ, Sylvie admonished. βYouβll...

It's summer vacation, I have three weeks off work and am in need of some new stories to fill my time! Added some new plots/ ideas and tweaked some of the existing ones. Please PM if your interested, as thread notifications have always been finicky with me.
Happy partner hunting...

Filo should've known better, truth been told.
When the Grand Conjuror had come asking for permission to utilize the courtyard of Fort Wayfarer, she hadn't thought twice about it. The college often did demonstrations for the members, hoping to entice profitable...
