The Tiger Within
/ The Tiger Within Chapter 351
"Your daughter successfully recreated Shadow Spread . It's a medicine only made by the royal family and can heal major ailments like cough, and fever, but also can erase a bruise as though it never existed to begin with . " Kyera explained motioning to her arm . Clovis gently inspected the once bruised shoulder .
"I see . I should thank Mordrin for sharing such a special secret with my daughter . " Clovis replied seeing she was chatting happily with both Shadow Veil Royals . He hadn't seen her this happy since she was told Kyera was to be her mother .
"Yes you should . We should also consider the medicine path for Raina . This recipe is hard to recreate and to do so at her age she must have a good internal balance . The type of balance that makes good healers . " Kyera added, honestly having been thinking this for awhile now . Raina was a vhd of many talents most of which revolved around other people's happiness and praise . She had a good chance at becoming a fantastic healer .

"I see . Perhaps, I mean she plays the Zither well, why would she need a duty other than the crown?" he asked honestly curious . No one wanted to make the future more difficult for their children than the ones bestowed at birth .
"The law of the forest reminds us to have more than one plan . If one thing falls through be ready to supplement or all together change to a new plan . For me I am a Warrior, but I am also a medic and a princess . That way if one lifestyle become no longer sustainable you have a way to make a new life . " Kyera explained and Clovis began to think about it . The royal family had never worried about such things before . If their children learned skills it was to impress the Emperor or Empress, not as a contingency plan . It was a bit of a novel idea to him at the moment .
"I see, how would a lifestyle change that much? If a royal loses their position they are normally more concerned with making things right with their gods before their beheading . " Clovis pointed out with a bit of a sigh . Kyera smiled softly .
"Do you really think I will let anyone touch my family? If you don't become Emperor we will take care of ourselves here . There will always be a place for Raina but she has her pride as do you and I . She will feel more comfortable if she has a skill she can dedicate herself to . You saw her when she realized she was healing me . She's fascinated . " Kyera pointed out as she took a moment to glance over at the child who was explaining something to Mordecai and the Empress with quite a bit of animation . She was so impressive compared to her normally subdued state . It was refreshing to see her spirit come alive .
"I see, your setting Raina up to be a decent princess by Shadow Veil standards in case our move is permanent . " Clovis concluded and Kyera frowned slightly, how was she going to explain this without being rude?
"Have you met Fara, of the Snow Drop Palace?" Kyera asked suddenly . "She is a seamstress and makes beautiful clothing for her Empress mother every year . Princess Lora of the Frost Gate is a dancer, and a master at her skills . Princess Kali, Mordrin's mother was adept at poetry and literature and wrote many children's stories . Clovis, it is only your kingdom that insists their princesses only learn what they must to he good wives with the addition of music . I want Raina to have more of a life than waiting to be a wife . " Kyera explained, honestly there were other countries than what she mentioned with more impressive princesses . Such as Kora Kai who could lead an entire army herself if need be, or Sora her sister who was a skilled merchant and ran several booming businesses . She simply chose less experienced ones so he would see her point .
"Hmm that is true, I just never thought of it that way . Raina's teachings really have been a bit… lacking . " Clovis admitted looking at it from a new point of view . At first he wanted to argue but, then again she was right .
"So it is settled . If Raina wishes to pursue Medicine we will encourage her . " Kyera decided with a bit of a smile . Clovis grinned, his wife never ceases to amaze him . The ball was still left in Raina's court .
"What did I do to deserve a wife like you?" he asked chuckling at himself . Kyera grinned .
"You presented a challenge to a hunter . Didn't anyone tell you a Tiger never walks past a challenge?" Kyera asked teasingly and then a mischievous grin crossed his lips .
"I will have to challenge you more often . " he growled lightly into her ear the implications causing kyera to blush .
