Slightly displeased to be asked this much by the Guard, Ewelina frowned as she finished their conversation, gesturing with a nod that it was enough of his inquires. Dismissing him so the matters she was to take care of could be done. — “If there is nothing else, do go to the n. Were they to have any displeasure the more ti we spend here, I will talk to them personally again. Nevertheless, well you know that the sooner we start moving the sooner we will be able to satisfy their desire to go back to their Lands.”
“..... Yes, Ma’am.” — Gilead in the pause he took to agree to her orders, briefly had a thought about the Archduchess’s sayings. Yet nothing was asked as he could tell, it was not sothing he was permitted, vacating her surroundings respectfully and hoping her deanour would only continue to strengthen back to her original self.
Once the door closed, announcing her full solitude, the docunts on her hands were lowered, for conflict had been revived within her after the Guard’s visit.
“... two months...” — She repeated, hoping for said to eventually lengthen as the Guard feared... for within her, a speck was reluctant to return to the Residence she obtained as the Myrkzver Archduchess. Already thinking her words would beco a lie for at this very mont she hoped otherwise. — “I am praying for myself to be ready and leave these lands once that ti has traversed... Excuses I search although I have no foundation for it...”
There was only one place she could return given her position.
Wish for forgiveness had already been thought of although she had yet to fully grasp it... Nonetheless, coming to her Mother’s territory in itself had been an excuse to escape the places where she had attained mories of him.
And, although her heart ached with longing at their separation, it ached further with disappointnt as there were still matters she had determined herself to listen to from the very man... However, the grueso events at the hands of an unscrupulous Devor made her every conviction about her spouse waver... and Ewelina felt troubled. For she did not want to think or miss him more than necessary.
The woman wanted to forget even if briefly anything had happened so this excuse she found in restoring her Mother’s household could be reasonable... Ewelina wanted to stop thinking of the events, the truths, lies and his existence solely for a lengthy enough period... So maybe, her thoughts would sort out this tangled confusion her many feelings invoked. Finding clarity if the wants of her soul...
‘... I want to be able to face him calmly at the very least... whatever I am to learn... this ti I want to hear it without letting my sorrow shut his voice...’
Uneasy, Ewelina leaned on her desk, unable to concentrate on the tasks to do. Observing the many parchnts she had already skimd through that confird how bad a situation Cole and Theressa had left the Household in.
And she sighed... standing as she knew there was sowhere she could go to, yet had been delaying her visit during these two days of stay under the Orteu’s roof.
Therefore, taking the ring of her Father, she left the bureau, grasping it strongly for she aid to visit his and her mother’s grave. Alone... declining the company of those the woman t as she went to get the needed mount to reach the mourning woods quicker.
“Master’s wife doesn’t know how to ride, however?” — The girl that still was cautious around her Master asked, for Ewelina had kept her word in giving a room separated from hers to the child at her disobedience. Denying what was requested once during their travels. — “Nu thinks it is dangerous... Nu should go with Master’s wife.”
“... There is no need. While riding with Nu I could see how it is done. I have already practised a few tis before.”
“...”
“...”
“... uhm... Master’s wife... will Nu be allowed to go play with you again? Nu understands her wrongdoings now...” — After the Archduchess’ reply instilled silence for she was preparing the horse, the brakian mainglousse timidly told in hopes for redemption. Yet the Archduchess’ ways were hardened towards the child given the disobedience committed.
“Hm? Is that how it is? Then do tell what you understood. I would like to know if you learned correctly.” — Forcefully strict, Ewelina demanded from the child, not too pleased by this harshness, yet aware the girl’s doings, even if able and powerful, could not be allowed for a child she still was.
The girl fiddled then with her hands, nervous to say it wrongly. Nevertheless, softly, Nu started to tell her learnings from the punishnt received.
“... If Master’s wife gives Nu an order, there is reason behind it...”
“... Hence?”
“Nu is to obey for Master’s wife wishes good for Nu...”
“...... What else.”
“... urm... uhm... wh- what else is there?? N-Nu forgot, hehe...” — Although Ewelina had fought the lt of her heart at the cute ways the girl peeked wishing to reply properly, she sighed once the girl could not answer what else there was for her to reflect on. Searching with her eyes around to see if sight of the woman entailed could be found. Eventually finding her far, helping so n and a few won they had learned were prisoners of Felios.
“Do you not recall what happened with Kelly?”
“... Nu believes it was not wrong of Nu to hurt her... Kelly provoked many unsettled shivers in Master’s wife during our travel...”
“That is for myself to decide.” — Displeased, Ewelina retorted the capricious beliefs. — “Although I appreciate that you care for , hurting others because of it is not sothing I will praise you for, Nu. If you had not practised enough to control your Brakian Maingloiusse’s abilities, Kelly could have died instantly to it.”
“... Kell did not die, Master’s wife...”
“She could have. She was already weak, you were well aware of that.”
“...”
“... Reflect a little more.” — Lastly, Ewelina said to end the girl’s persistence. Deciding in a mont for she saw how the girl’s head lowered while nodding, saddened to be denied of her warmth again today, to give a little hint of it, for she has still understood a piece of the lesson. — “You have already grasped a good understanding of a tad of it. I am sure you will also arrive at a comprehension as to why I am displeased in this matter.”
