On being tentatively reserved at scorched.

[weavings]

Just because I'm more — what was your word? Sociable? — than that other character of yours does not mean I want to leave behind everyone I love on a whim!

I have no interest in becoming involved with the politics of another land, not again. Surely there must be someone else out there who is willing to serve your purpose. I have duties in Emelan, and I will not allow you to tell me what I can or cannot do.

Yours sincerely,
Lady Sandrilene fa Toren

Oh my god. I wish I had a Tris or Daja now. Its been too long...

It seems your Mun has made up her mind.

I cant remember the last time mine has heeded a request.

Good luck with ordering them about. Though if anyone can do it, you can.

They never seem to have much interest in our interests, Sandry. I don't think even somebody as stubborn as you stands much chance.

[Stubborn is a compliment! Really! Even if it's not at all surprising that the Landreg family breeds mules.]

[weavings]

She has not, but either way, I find it rather vexing.

Thank you, Daja. [A smile.] I really do appreciate it. I certainly won't give up.

[weavings]

[And she will take it as such. Graciously.]

Why thank you, Briar. That doesn't mean I won't keep trying, though. If anything, I shall be more stubborn than ever.

[she's not terribly expressive most of the time, but she can't really hide her fond smile from Sandry.]

Maybe you can strike a bargain.
