Amy's day

[Scarlet Grayner]

Amy sat by the table staring down at a piece of parchment which had just a few doodles on it. She tapped her quill end on the desk impatiently. Setting the beautiful feathered quill down she ran her hand through her hair, her other hand was still in a sling from her training the other week with Ailric. The long red hair was somewhat messy and tatty from the stress of being locked away in the small office. She hadn’t been out for days, with Cyril gone and the war with Vesper, Amy was far to scared to step outside the office no matter how much she needed to walk in the fresh air.

“The sooner Cyril comes back the better.” She said under her breath while running her finger along the dust gathering books. If only the Baron had listened to her advice instead of pushing it away, the war would never have happened and the townsfolk would be safe to walk outside. Thinking about it made her boil with anger, grabbing a book off the shelf as a distraction method she dropped it down on the table.

But her mind kept flicking back, no matter how much she tried to enforce the historic information in it kept settling on the same topic. The war. She kept trying to think up ways to end it, things that could happen! She was sick of being crammed inside the office.
“This has to end soon!” she slammed her good fist down on the book angrily.
