No Magic Fixes – Part 2

After my morning reading, I decide it’s time to tackle some larger projects. The backyard has been overtaken by weeds, so I start there. I trim back the worst areas with a weed-eater, then yank the rest out from around my flowers with rapid intensity. I marvel at the garbage bags full of trimmings as I race them to the […]

No Magic Fixes

I frown at the sink full of dishes. If only there were more hours in a day, I wish for the hundredth time with a sigh as I pick up a cup. “Well that wish won’t do,” a voice calls out from behind me. I spin, nearly dropping the glass. Before me hovers a wisp of a man clothed in […]

The Restless Princess – Part 3

I make sure I arrive early for our departure, settled atop Diago’s saddle. My brother only glances at me with pursed lips, but doesn’t comment on my riding horseback instead of being safely tucked away in a carriage.  I’ve invited two of my Ladies-in-Waiting to join us, ones who I know are proficient riders. It will benefit my brother’s cause […]

The Restless Princess – Part 2

Queen Amaria arrived with much fanfare, but not that of a Queen of Rezia. No, her entrance was more fitting of a King. Instead of being helped out of a glamorous carriage, she rode in at the head of her retinue on a gorgeous white horse. Trumpets announced her approach, and flags in the sapphire and silver colors of Movalon […]

The Restless Princess

“I don’t want that,” I told my brother as he held out my birthday gift.  He blinked at me and then exclaimed, “Evelyn, that’s no way for a Princess to behave!” “Well, that’s no riding cloak.” I crossed my arms and stared him down.  “This is a very fine cloak made by the best seamstress in the Kingdom.” He held […]

Kingdom of Dragons – Part 2

Not a bad day, Henrik thought as he threw a cover over his stall. He frowned at the small cage next to the box of displays he would lug home. Only one little dragon didn’t sell. Now that the season had concluded, with what he was sure was great fanfare, no one would be in need of further adornments for […]
