Renalia found herself in a bit of a conundrum.
As heir apparent of Runalis, there were certain requirements to ascending to the throne. One, of course, was age. One could not be trusted to run a country if one was too young. No ruler of Runalis had been younger than twenty when they came into power in many decades. Renalia had turned twenty just a handful of weeks ago, which meant she was, at the very least, of age to take the throne. Her father was keen to retire, it seemed, so...

Halios, her guard and only companion, stood at her door, watching the shuddering of her shoulders as she tried her best to hide her sobs from him. Such isolation was a cruel thing to foist upon a young girl, especially on her birthday. He scowled as the voices came closer. He knew the brash cadenc...

Alwyn stood at the window, staring out at the winding road that led to the palace. Carriages carrying nobility and gentry covered the path with a multitude of brilliant colors. Alwyn, however, only had eyes for one. The brilliant white carriage that sped up along the side of the road, royal banners proclaiming the importance of its occupant.
Her brother was coming home.

The evening air was unusually warm for that time of year. The last chill of winter was no where to be seen. Renalia stood beside her father, smoothing over the pastel blue fabric of her dress with gloved hands. The gloves were a terrible idea. They made her hands sweaty in the heat. Her father had insisted, though. It was the proper dress for a debutante ball such as this. She scowled at the memory. It was always a lecture with him.

Before getting down to the nitty gritty of writing, I wanted to fully timeline each of the girl's stories. Here's the first of my lovely ladies' stories.
Please keep in mind that despite doing my best, I will very likely Not keep to this timeline. My characters tend to do whatever they want to do, and I find it easier to let them run free than to try and wrangle them and end up with writer's block.
- Prologue: Runalis,Capital City, First day of spring, R...
