Doylist: there's no way in hell I'm posing a war.), so if Renata became a knight and stayed in Naroni, her chances of dying aren't really much greater than anyone else of her age and general health, fellow knights or not.<br /><br />That said, I see your point. It would have been nice if Renata had felt she could discuss this with her parents beforehand. As for Severin, I think he ultimately sees this as "someone making decisions for their own life" versus "someone making decisions for someone else's life", and out of principle he's not about to switch sides there unless something drastic happens; as for her age, if Renata's younger brother is old enough for training, then so is Renata.Vanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09325395792013382406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454462454354598319.post-90210239652791686242014-03-20T19:13:51.028-07:002014-03-20T19:13:51.028-07:00Yeaaahhhh, I don't get it. Severin knows what ...Yeaaahhhh, I don't get it. Severin knows what it is to worry about his boys (and I emphasize "boys"-- they're required to combat train unless they're joining the church) and yet he can throw someone else's teenage daughter into a profession where she could be hurt or killed? Without her parents' consent? That's insane. She's a child.Penelopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16849958697187040289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454462454354598319.post-63373835578463878592014-02-04T22:05:34.996-08:002014-02-04T22:05:34.996-08:00Sometimes, I think Severin just likes a good schem...Sometimes, I think Severin just likes a good scheme.

Though, I would very much like to see her mother's face if she knew he was impressing a noble young man with her knightly abilities.<br /><br />... and ditto the Severin & Renata Blackmail Network, sapping the dregs of the kingdom dry one by one!Winterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16869680359163911803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454462454354598319.post-72085910758224125972014-01-31T10:45:55.922-08:002014-01-31T10:45:55.922-08:00Thanks for the catch!
Between Severin and Renata ...Thanks for the catch!<br /><br />Between Severin and Renata the Elder, I don't think they were going to let Renata the Younger go all that easily. ;)<br /><br />I doubt that Renata ever imagined one of her female descendents aspiring to become a knight, but now that it's happened, she seems to have taken it as a welcome surprise. :)Vanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09325395792013382406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454462454354598319.post-69025927250740849332014-01-31T03:27:06.279-08:002014-01-31T03:27:06.279-08:00"preparing to be knight" is that meant t..."preparing to be knight" is that meant to be 'knightED'?<br /><br />I love how Severin is so upfront about it all, and I'm glad grandma Renata is sticking by granddaughter Renata! Though I'm curious on her take on all of this, and if she ever imagined one of her female descendants becoming a knight!Ekhohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09298048746460690752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454462454354598319.post-25654238460607813532014-01-31T01:29:16.181-08:002014-01-31T01:29:16.181-08:00Everybody wins, or at least they get to think they...Everybody wins, or at least they get to think they do. ;)Vanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09325395792013382406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454462454354598319.post-24189054265356535792014-01-31T00:19:32.864-08:002014-01-31T00:19:32.864-08:00Oooohohohoho, now this is delicious! ^^ What a con...Oooohohohoho, now this is delicious! ^^ What a conspiracy!

Moving profiles can be a pain.<br /><br />And speaking of profiles... ProBoards forced an "upgrade" on me, and it didn't play well with the colors I had, so I switched it temporarily to one of their default schemes. I'll play around with colors once I'm sure that functionality hasn't been impacted too much.Vanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09325395792013382406noreply@blogger.com
