  1. Naples is a cursed place and they only escaped whole with the unexpected diligence of Marco. I doubt they needed the warning to not return.
  2. Well, the title is a clue. I'm pulling for him to choose Florece, but Etienne is above all loyal and selfless.
  3. What are Uall up to?
  4. It would have been impossible for Uall to move 20,000 miles conventionally overnight without anyone noticing how fast they were moving. It seems earth magic is forming its own team to fight back.
  5. I'm not fond of sappy fare with the exception of maple syrup.
  6. In reality, such a relationship would be impossible to hide in a royal palace. The lives of princes and kings weren't private. There were too many servanta and courtiers.
  7. We must keep in mind the concept of the innocence of childhood is relatively new, it only dates to the 19th century. Children were property and had no real rights. I'd say Henry's punishment was indeed quite severe. The world outside of court isn't a pleasant place, and his ashen pallor shows he's likely aware of the hard life ahead of him.
  8. I'm always up for a good historical romp and this one is off to a great start.
  9. Isn't that called fiction?
  10. Some things are simple and others are hard. They are on their first uncertain steps to become kings. What an ungrateful lot of nobles they are saddled with.
  11. I'm still chuckling at the island being named U-all.
  12. I believe I'm beginning to hallucinate. The Word of the Day has appeared five hours early.

  14. Mermonster is a terrible name for such a delightful living ship.
  15. Insipid pairs well with incipience.
  16. Raise two lanterns. We're going by sea.

    George certainly disdains them, but he's too polite to call them out.
  18. I'd imagine scoff vs scarf emerged from the non'rhotic differences in English.
  19. I savor the ambrosial flavors of a fine single malt scotch.

    In Northern Exposure it was determined the men in this government were second tier. This chapter proves it.

    I have been rereading the Bridgmont series once more and had reached POA, so I am thankful for this new chapter.
  22. Other attacks on large cities should have been expected. I'm surprised they waited this long.. By the evidence of the crashed ship, someone is fighting back.
  23. I am a big turophile.
  24. Ryder sure has some odd ideas. He 'protects' Danny and Vince by telling half truths, but tells Jack. Everybody is reading from a different script.
