I expected that there would be more for us to do, if we are indeed here for a war. Not for us to sit and idly wait until these monarchs have need of us.

[ Spoken like someone who doesn't trust them, she has little respect for those who use kidnapping to force others to fight for them. She's not used to this, not having things to do. Despite losing her shield, and the bit with the imps and fae last month - Aveline feels, well. Restless. Unsure of what to do with herself, and she doesn't like it. Might as well try to make something of it. ]

If anyone in Caer Glaem is trained with a sword, I wouldn't mind a partner or two to cross blades with. And if there are those who would like to learn, I'm not against giving you a bit of training, assuming you can provide your own gear. I could honestly do with something other than waiting around for whatever is to happen next.

One last thing, I'm having trouble contacting a friend of mine, in the other castle. Messages have not gone through, I was hoping someone could let me know if they have seen her? Marian Hawke. Short black hair, blue eyes, and a tendency to make terrible jokes at every turn.

You sound fond of him, Loras Tyrell. You know him from before? I'll speak with him as well. They are both of the Seelie court, I assume?

[ well, obviously there are but she hasn't yet met them so. fair question. ]

Perhaps. She was not the only one I knew in that court, but I believe he too may have been sent back.

[ regardless, she'll try to find Hawke, and Anders. ]

He was my squire, at our home, and soon became one of my dearest friends. I would trust him with my life and more, had I more to give. You will find both in Caer Glaem, though I cannot promise that my nephew will be here for long. I fear he has a case of wanderlust about him.

[ He is still smiling to himself, a tone filled with cheer and a kindness all the same. ]

I wonder if, perhaps, they have simply abandoned their lockets. It is a shame we cannot simply ride for a few days to visit friends and allies.

It is fortunate that you have someone you trust so deeply here with you. [ or maybe not, she's not really been here long enough to say what it's, really like -- only what she's heard. But Maker, she's already worried for her friends, and husband without her. ]

A shame indeed. Anders... possibly, it's a possibility he's abandoned or lost his, but Hawke... no, I think she'd know better if it's the only means of communication we have at the time.

I am incredibly lucky, I know. A great many of my friends and allies from my home are here and, while we may wish to return home, it is a comfort to have them close. [ renly just keeps smiling to himself, curious and dismissive all at once. people are going home already, then? interesting. ]

Then I hope your friend has found her way home. I am sure it would do her well.

You know an Eddard Stark and a Jon Snow? Both claimed they were of Westeros, same as you. It would be, at least we'd know if they were here, that they're safe. I don't want to think about what they may be getting into as I'm not around, and my husband...

[ It's not as if she wants them all here, but more so to go home herself. But there is a part that does wish they would show since that doesn't seem to be happening. It feels selfish, but Aveline can't help it. ]

As do I.

Yes, both. Eddard more than his son, but I would call them allies. I am sure your friends and your love are quite alright, my lady. At least you do not have to worry about friendliness with a spouse you have yet to marry.

[ he thinks of margaery and almost sighs. she is lovely and he is more than aware of why he marries her, but... ]

Have no fear.

[ Sighing ]

You're probably right. They're capable, after all. [ it's just hard for her not to worry, the not knowing part bothers her.

But anyways. ]

That sounds complicated.

Somewhat.

[ He doesn't look entirely put off by it, though, simply offering a smile and nodding his head in an easy acceptance. He's had a few months to get used to the idea, after all. ]

I have been told many things of my future and that is hardly the most startling.
