Lucy Wickshire

Chapter 206

"I had come today not only to congratulate you on your crowning, but to introduce to you, my sister, Princess Karth of Thaile." The first one to speak was the crowned prince of Thaile sent here as a representative. Thaile was a kingdom east of the Marjiont valley"s territory. They were most known for how they had become a second rate kingdom. It saw at the pause of the eight kingdom war and they were situated in the middle as other kingdoms pa.s.sed though them by boat on the fresh water crack. The fresh water crack was a deep valley that connected eight third rate kingdoms from one side of the fresh water spring, to the forest mashes. It was one of the two water channels. This fresh water crack flowed straight through the kingdom of Thaile and was a war channel in the eight kingdom war. The war had halted because of the drought and Thaile suffered because of their location. At then, their former king had them take out all the salts they had and dump into the dried channel, then built a wall on the sides of the channel to block water from coming in or out by the time the rains returned.

It was said that he heaped in enough salt to cover the entire crack into a flat land. When the rains returned, the other kingdoms dared not attack Thaile nor ask to pa.s.s through their kingdom, for fear that their king will open the walls and salt will poison their marshes and fresh water.

King Adrian had heard of this legend. It was said that after they completely dominated the eight kingdoms by using their salt crack as a threat, they became a second rate kingdom. He had not thought that their crowned prince will travel all this way for his coronation.

The girl that walked forward took off her veil and her skin of burnt sugar was exposed. Her thick sponge hair was plaited stiffly atop her head and adorned a small crown. She was dressed like those of the east; completely covered in a fabric called crystal lace. She made a graceful Juhntt bow and everyone became entranced. Her dark brown eyes sparkled when she looked up at King Adrian.

She had heard of the mysterious prince who took over as king in place of his younger brother and since the coronation, she could only see him through her veil. Seeing him clearly now, she was not only entranced, she was extremely satisfied.

King Adrian"s eyes rested on her for a second then stopped everyone with a raise of his hand, before the scene became that of people selling their daughters in the market. He had heard Amie chuckle. In fact, they had all heard it. It made him very aware that he was the one who wanted this marriage and even though she would not back out, she may hold a grudge for this disrespect. He was aware of how important she will become the moment the alignment battleground closes. That she held no grudge was important to him.

"Even if you have the courage to show disrespect to Lady Wickshire, I do not. Her most trusted right hand gave his sister to me in her presence. If you have grown courage, then display it in your kingdom." King Adrian exposed Walter"s ident.i.ty.

At this, the entire hall froze. Rumours that Lady Steinhouse married someone working for Lady Wickshire had been spread alongside the carnage that had been unleashed on the alignment stage. But hearing from the King"s mouth that this mysterious Lord Steinhouse was her right hand, they did not expect this outcome. Amie"s calm expression seemed even more explained now. But everyone knows Lady Wickshire is travelling, was it still necessary to worry about her face? Many n.o.ble women wondered this, but the n.o.ble men knew better. Does it matter where she travelled to? Unless she was declared dead, they had better be careful. Even being declared dead was no reason to be careless. They would have to see the body themselves before they can breathe well.

King Adrian saw that his words had the desired effect, so he announced his marriage date, "This king will tie the knot in two weeks." As his words landed, Princess Karth looked to her brother with worry.

"Relax. A lot could happen in two weeks." he answered her calmly.
