catching a moment of quiet Who: Elia Martell, ? When: May 1, noon Where: a courtyard in the Red Keep Rating: PG Status: Open to anyone
Elia was in a truly good mood- something that had been rare during the last year. But now Jaehaerys was king, and Lady Stark was truly on her way out of Elia's universe. How Hester could abide being related to that creature was beyond the Dornish princess. But her wretched time at the helm of the court was ending, thanks be to the Seven. Aeria held court once more, and Elia was now renewed in her status as sister to the queen, and now... aunt to the king! More importantly, one of the close companions of that king. A shadow of sadness passed over her as she thought of the friends lost in the attack on Jaehaerys' ship. They should have been here.
She pushed the sadness away. For the next days, there would be no dwelling on the dark days: the future stretched out before her with more than enough diversions and comforts.
So she took the quiet moments to find a spot in part of a half-forgotten court to enjoy the fountains playing around her and she took up a book of Lysene nobility, the better to catch up on the hated studies her siblings would be sure to ask after.
