"My Lord Emperor, could you see fit to reduce their lashings and place them both under my service as slaves?" Kyera asked . She was so often being surrounded by death that she didn't want two more lives on her heart . These maids were not evil, just missguided .

The Emperor seemed surprised by her request but Mordakai smiled . He knew her mind . "This was not something I expected from you, Princess Kyera . " the Emperor concluded aloud .

Advertisement"Even in a warriors heart must lie some mercy, or be no more than a butcher . " Mordakai explained nodding at Kyera . "You are lucky my friend to have Kyera as your daughter in law . There was a time I had hopes for the same myself, but then Mordrin fell for Vella and our family became complete . "

"Thank you, Emperor Mordakai for your words . Now that this has been solved, isn't there a wedding to be getting ready for?" The Emperor asked raising a brow . Most the people in the room filtered out as Mordakai and Mordrin walked down to Kyera .

"We need to talk, Warrior Princess . " Mordakai whispered and Kyera nodded . There was a note of sadness in his eyes as he lead her away . Yet another heartbreaking was about to unfold as Kyera learned the fate of poor Werol and the three missing council members .

The next morning came in singing . The birds twittered and then wind danced against the chimes making soft music as Kyera rose from bed . Her heart sped up as she remembered the most crucial thing about today . She was getting married .

Her bath was meticulous as she prepared to put on the long dress that had been so lovingly crafted . She loved every bit of it, the fit, the movement and how the style was very much her own . Her mind wandered as a maid began brushing her hair in preparation of its updo .

She wished her brothers could be here, to give her away . Half Eye had been caught up in business far away so instead, Kyera's head guard Daxin had agreed to hand her off . She had envisioned this day since she was a child, and everything was perfect . Even though the groom was not who she had expected, she was happy to think . of spending her life at his side . He and Raina both would be hers from now on .

As the long purple veil was draped over her face it started to become very real . Butterflies seems to flutter around in her stomach, every nerve ending uncomfortably active . She walked out to meet her escort, barely able to see through the delicate lace . The man who took her hand however, was not Daxin .

"Princess, I hope you don't mind but I believe this is my duty . " spoke a gentle voice as her hand was placed on his forearm . Tears welled in her eyes as Kyera looked into his sea blue eyes .

"Thank you,Talis . This means so much to me . " Kyera whispered and he nodded, kissing her forehead through the veil .

"I know . You are still my sister, no matter whose last name you carry . He would have wanted you happy, and I know I do . " Talis responded as the band began to play . Kyera took a deep breath and let him guide her out into the room . She could feel all eyes on her as they glided down the floor . Clovis couldn't take his eyes off of her . So beautiful and graceful exactly as he knew she would he .
