Who: Catríona and Karanteg
Where: Elkwood Castle
When: Early afternoon
Catríona did not want to be in the capital. She had never gone through that phase as a child or young woman where she had dreamed of court, of the dresses and the young knights and lords... none of it. She had wanted to go to the Island of Doves and learn all that she could before she was sold off into marriage bonds. Apparently, those followed her even after two of them died. She was still wondering how long it was going to take the third one to have the decency to follow in his brother's footsteps like he'd already done by wedding her.
Smiling at someone she didn't really see, Cat forced herself to drift closer to where Karanteg was standing. Now that the children had been sent off, Iona with her wetnurse, she... she did not want to act pleasant. She wanted to stamp on his foot and call him seven kinds of fool for bringing bastards to court. To court! She didn't care what purpose they supposedly served, they were bastards and he was all-but flaunting them around the nobility of the Blessed Realm. She had known he was bringing that bastard squire boy of his, she hadn't approved of it but he'd done it anyway, and said that it was it. Yet she had seen those two bastard girls of his among the staff they'd brought. Three! He had brought three bastards with them to court. She had three legitimate children and he had three bastards.
"You enjoy this little game, don't you?" Cat asked once she was within hearing range, and after ensuring that no one important was around. "I find myself wondering if you do it deliberately or accidentally. And which one would be worse." Watchers help her, she needed wine.
