Once in a while.

At the edge of my vision black spirals creep into my eyes. I feel like I am drowning in ink. My limbs feel tingly and float. My body forces me to find a place to sit and focus on the ground. My stomach heaves. I clutch the shoulder of someone and then everything goes black.
I wake up in a sitting position and for a moment all I see is red dots and concerned faces.
I ask for some food and then I stop one woman from calling 911.
'I am not pregnant.'
I correct her as she details shrilly to the emergency response voice.
That one was the worst of them all ever.

She only wanted a moment to say her piece. It's not like they would even post her ideas on the board or anything. She just felt that if she could get this over with her confidence would sky rocket magically and she would just always post her ideas from now on. They didn't have time for another piece so she actually apologized to them. She hits her head against the wall in the second story of her design studio. How could she be like that, so spineless! She angrily grabs a cup of water from the chow table. What was she thinking being so sill, apologizing! She knows what to do and she knows she could be an awesome leader for the next design team, let alone the fact that she will absolutely die if she has to be lead by her snobby boring just good enough co-designer. "co" is the title of their relationship and yet somehow it always seems to fall to her to do all the work and correct all the inadequate pieces and create pure genius while Gracie falls to getting the praise a...

Since The city,  Eushaunn, is Kilos away i will take us about two weeks journey to arrive. Therefore the invitation is always sent about four months in advance. We had more then enough time to prepare and yet the moment i announced it to the hall, there was chaos. It was as if we were leaving the next day! Oh how i love our ladies and gentlemen who tend to the Hall. The women went hysterical beginning to get out the travel clothes and the armor for our journey. The men went straight to the Villa where our horses and traveling carts we always kept. It was immediate.  I, on the other hand, went to the library. It wasn't time yet for combat practice and i wanted to get some domestic issues cleared up before we left.  The Villa of Dyllen was lead by a distant cousin of my father's. He was an excellent Lord and a terrific warrior. However, his son... he doesn't belong in Wood. HIs father is still alive in a simple house in the Laor. The Fae care for him since he has gone beyond...

That is me in Wood.

I am Violet. I'm almost 18 and i prefer that you don't call me youngster or kiddlin. I may be of Wood, but I am Your Highness to you, whoever you are. My mother is the Queen of Wood. The Winter Queen they call her. The surrounding lands seem to think she is made of ICE?! Peculiar. She may be cold but not of ice. My father is the Kinder of Wood. King of Wood and all that lies along it's borders. So to you, i am Your Highness. Do not let me mislead you. I am princess of Wood but I have no crown. Would not wear one if i did. There is no fulfilling purpose to jewels and riches.  I don't wear fancy clothes on a daily basis. I don't ride side saddle. I don't 'swoon' and i don't faint on command. I am of the Wood. I have my own set of responsibilities. I tend to the defensive villas in the Wood . Wood is a kingdom. Only more of a country. There are hundreds of villas. Thousands of subjects, but there are only twelve Ruine Lands. They border each of the ot...
