Lady Ashelia,

Please accept my deepest sympathy and loss, yet rest assured that Warjilis is running smoothly and your friends have been notified.

Should you require anything else, know that I will respond with hesitation.

Sorry - html ;;

[The response comes some time later, as the princess had been tending to her child, a duty which had been carried out by her maids in the wake of Rasler's loss, allowing her time to grieve. It would be Shain, ultimately, who would unknowingly lend her strength enough to endure, even if the prospect of a future without his father tore at her heart.]

[News of Delita's actions on her behalf had since reached the estate, and she owed him a reply at the least.]


My gratitude is yours.

I would hear any message you may have to relay.

[Strength. That word alone conjures up a memory - some months ago, when talk that the Sky People were about to be sent home began to circulate. Rasler held her, spoke words of reassurance.

We must be strong... for each other, and for Shain.

She holds on to the memory just as she held her prince and makes a silent vow to him, and herself, to regain her strength, even if it evades her now.]


I acknowledge their concern. I must gather my thoughts before addressing them myself.

Delita... the people. What is the feeling amongst them?

[To be strong seems a goal out of reach, however - nothing feels in perspective. No matter how much she demands strength of herself it simply isn't there to grasp, she's blinded by the harsh reality of being widowed for a second time, and feels ill prepared in her decision-making. Having spent time with her son had felt calming, allowed her some objectivity, but facing matters of state...]

You would do that?

[Unintentional as it may be, those words, 'son and self' only draw her attention to the fact that she is now very much alone in parental responsibility to Shain. The infant prince will depend on her, but what is unsaid is that she will need him equally. As such, the opportunity Delita offers is greatly welcome.]

Thank you. I accept your offer. There are others in Warjilis who [She searches for the right word] have absent family. It is they who must take priority by way of provisions and support.

[Suddenly she feels all the closer to the people, save for birthright she is no different to other wives bereft of their husbands at Gaia's will.]

[When she feels ready to talk, she may accept an offered ear. Right now, the pain is just too raw to speak of.]

Then I give you my blessing to act in my stead.
