...is on top of the well guarded walls...
- ~ - I had heard the alarm raised, the men moving about in pairs, groups, and units in and out of the castle and the grounds. The guards within where to keep an eye on the women in the walls as well as the heir. I had kept out of the way, looking, to help where I was needed to help being more supplies for the infirmary more to focus on an impending child birth along with items for tending to the wounded. My own "gifts" allowed me to keep hidden within the shadows and hear far better than most as I looked out now from the Walls of the Castle. While most expected something more, matronly and stately from me, tonight I was rather dressed down. My hair up in such away that it looked fashionable but was up out of the way fully. My manner of dress might be shocking to some as it was in something an ranger would wear or one of my outriders. However my own riding coat was what was different from most who wore a cloak as it allowed for me to ride astride and kept me covered to hide that I wore. Up here as I slowed walked along the wall keeping to behind each shield point to pause and scan. I knew my limits of what I could do, but til I spoke to Her Majesty to see what she would need of me this is what I could do. - ~ -

- ~ - Having listened to the men talking, the other words from the stables from the rider from the protectorate as I walked thinking. My eyes moved along the far walls to the darkness of the fields, to see if they keep dark as my thoughts moved to the letter I sent with two outriders. I did not want them to ride alone as two is one and one is none. I would not wish anything to happen as they made their way to the duchy. I called for more support that could be spared from the duchy and from there to have the other letter sent to my friend if he could perhaps send men to shore up the men I would take from the duchy. It was a long shot but one I was willing to ask for as I knew from the whispers all was going to be a battle with an unknown outcome. Knowing my riders when sent last night would have made it by now and it would take another day or better to come back to here should the way still be clear. - ~ -

- ~ - Bringing an gloved hand over my mouth to not be heard nor show the back of my throat in the jaw splitting yawn. I had not slept well if at all with what has come to pass and the toll was taken on me in my trying to help. I would be of no help if I did not take better care, then again...Thinking as I walked towards the end where the door was, it would let me back into the passageway into the castle itself once more. Minding my foot falls as I walked down the narrow stairs, mindful of the few who were coming up to relieve their counter parts. Looking over my shoulder as I gave a slight smile, noting one of the others that was sent as my personal guard. My Captain liked to be awake and take care of business if I was asleep, I was less trouble for him I think. Moving along till I found a place I wanted to duck off into. - ~ -

...is somewhere in the castle...
- ~ - Looking to the guard as I nodded to him as he kept a few paces behind, he would not leave me even within the walls of the well guarded Castle. Seems whatever has most here on edge my own have taken it to heart and did not want to stretch them thinner and took turns helping where they could. Thinking of what else needed done as I moved along, looking for that one place and I was not finding it. Perhaps it was best I did turn in for the night. I could think straight once I had real sleep and not this broken kind that I found myself with. My fingers slide along the choker around my throat, mostly absentmindedly as I needed to meditate and that would come....The light dawned in my eyes as I took to the stairs as the guard followed and I knew Ana would know what I was trying to think of as I slipped into my chambers as the guard took his place at my door. - ~ -
