Grief can come in many forms and have a track of other emotions tied along with it.
I do hope Jester will be okay in the end, but I’m also not sure if he will be. Of course, Jane will be in denial, even if she has seen death herself. I do like how Dragon is respecting her grief and privacy.
I’m also proud of Princess Lavinia for confessing to her father what happened, that is very noble of her.
This chapter has had a lot going on, but in a good way. Can’t wait for what happens next!
Thanks Holly, yes I'm trying to make this true and heartfelt and grounded in real emotions, so often in fantasy writing the emotions become simply heroic and lose connection and truth.
THIS IS SO GOOD!!! I’m on the edge of my seat reading these last few chapters. Every scene is so beautifully crafted leaving us all eager to know what happens next. Your writing is incredible and I am excited for what comes next!
This is part of druid folklore, like the Norse had Valhalla and their fallen heroes, the druid and celtic myths talked of the Summer Lands where you went after death, and you are met on the road by one of the old Kings, Arawn.
This chapter was heartbreaking.

What is the Summer Land? And who is Arawn, king of Annwn? I really hope Jester survives. And I hope the Merchant hasn’t gotten his hands on the sword.
Hi Erick,
