But Kandric has a lot on his plate, getting back his brothers and Emroc, and mollifying the King. I also believe Xavier will need to complete the trip to Lucas the Lost before any meeting will happen.
-
Bertie didn't tarry long. Someone got him a posting to India. It's far enough to be out of sight and mind.
-
Travers got an eyeful of Christmas family drama with Bertie showing his ass. The Earl might have cut him off, but his mother has too much affection for him to leave him out in the cold, regardless of his sins. Without George providing a decent doctor, Winkler would have ended up a cripple or worse, dead.
-
They finally rid themselves of the future Charles X. After his misfortune of being wounded, Winkler has lucked out finding service as Granger's valet, a position which will benefit them both.

Madelyn will tell Gradon and Mablin about the boys being dragons when they return. It isn't something she can keep secret.
-
I'm wondering if Mablin's new driver is a Green dragon in disguise. It's too convenient the other one got drunk and this one showed up.
-
I wondered what would happen to Xavier when his mother's death gifting hit him. It's good Mablin and the new caravan members weren't back yet, so this can still be kept on a need to know basis. Kandric is already familiar with the legend of Xavier and his group's disappearance and I'm sure this fog spirit will tell him he has met the young Sand Dragon prince. Hontel is much like Lew and is overwhelmed by the casual way these kids gift great wealth. He totally missed Malachi telling him Garnet is a priest of Rovnar.

The losing the scent in water thing is a myth. Now pepper works fine to neutralize tracking by smell.
-
I appreciate he may not be skilled with a sword, but having a weapon is better than being unarmed. The proof is he killed one of the guards only because the guard dropped his sword allowing Nathan to use it.

I saw with some amusement analphabetic is a synonym for benighted. -

Benighted is a much lower honor than to be knighted. -
I don't think we've seen the last of his fellow prisoner.
-
Navigating the waters of court and society are as challenging as piloting a ship through an unknown passage. Granger has been busy layering the relationship he shares with Calvert with additional protections. Granger exhibits the skills of a diplomat. He has also adroitly removed Calvert from the resolute clutches of Princess Amelia.

We have met Theodore and it's heartening he isn't omniscient. This instills some hope into his bleak vision of the future.
-
Nathan had a lot of luck on his side with his escape. I do question the wisdom of tossing Tarn's sword aside and not carrying it with him. Stopping for a nap so soon isn't the best of ideas either. I fear they might have dogs to track him.

lodestone - Word of the Day - Sun Mar 3, 2024
drpaladin commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Lodestone can be something which strongly attracts, like blood in the water is a lodestone for sharks. -
I get the feeling Mike's mom and Maggie are best friends. There has been no indication by anyone they are related to Mike.
-
Lord Helmsley lives in a well guarded fortress. Nathan is now effectively in the dungeon of a prison and drugged. If Nathan killed Helmsley's son, why didn't he recognize the name? I wouldn't imagine he would ever be unarmed. What did they miss? His one possible ally is Tarn.
-
The fact others have been here bearing the signet as an invite I find odd. Rather than a written invitation from the host, the ring screams secrecy. Who needs so many anonymous VIP guests? This has the taint of a setup. Why would he need to meet face to face with this principal when all he needs is a name, descriptiin, and address?
-
Is it just me or does Olivia seem more like a friend than a girlfriend? Add to that Liam has been talking about Mike to her and it doesn't seem to be negatively from her reactions.

The odd gusts of wind appear to presage an ill and uncertain future. For a man in such a dangerous profession, letting someone get the drop on him so easily seems unusual. Though if you intend using a knife on a skilled man, it's better to start carving than talking.
-
He says they won't bite him because he's their friend. Did I fail to mention he's crazy?

Metals used for metal working are either malleable in their natural state or can be made so by applying heat and force. -

Malleable comes from the Latin malleare, to hammer. -
I do know a guy who's been catching venomous snakes with bare hands since he was a kid. He puts his hand in their dens and grabs them. He swears he finds them by smelling them.
