He's still young though, so I bet he could learn enough to be pretty decent at it! That might come in handy someday, even if it doesn't turn into his primary occupation.<br /><br />Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03683230093775720398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6074055834975214817.post-89926516208843860932015-05-25T10:38:15.605-04:002015-05-25T10:38:15.605-04:00I am also glad that the rulers of Terre D'Ange...I am also glad that the rulers of Terre D'Ange grant even traitors their choice in execution method, as well as whether to make it public or private. It's very D'Angeline of them. <br /><br />It might be too late to train Alcuin to the sword. Though he would make a lovely escort. <br /><br />Ha! Very good point about Melisande making Phedre her goodbye gift to Baudoin as a sort of subtle torture for Phedre. She will stew over the fact that she knew something even though it was just a little thing. <br /><br />I liked Phedre's last assignation too. The ambassador to Khebbel-im-Akkad strikes me as silly sweet in the bedroom. nrlymrtlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00572346310916207565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6074055834975214817.post-71959365838233502272015-05-25T07:18:40.961-04:002015-05-25T07:18:40.961-04:00Yeah, I was wondering if that had to do with how P...Yeah, I was wondering if that had to do with how Phèdre was saying Melisande chose Delaunay as her audience for her political scheme, since he wasn't involved. Maybe, through that evening's assignation, she was choosing Phèdre to be her observer as well? I'm not really sure why. But then, at the same time, they basically treated her like an inanimate object during the evening.Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03683230093775720398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6074055834975214817.post-50752256354453303602015-05-25T06:51:19.021-04:002015-05-25T06:51:19.021-04:00It was such a shame about Guy!

I really liked him and had got used to his shadowy presence.<br />The evening with Baudoin was unusual wasn't it - Phedre was ignored for a large part - almost displaying how very much she could be put in her place. And clearly Melisande wanted her to 'know' something although I'm not quite sure why exactly at this point.<br />Lynn :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
