Paranoid

Dinner time came around and everyone in the palace had already heard about the fight between the sisters.

Eletha took it in stride as there was nothing that could be done about it, but to let the rumors run their course. Besides, families argue and fight all the time, she was sure it isn't a big deal in some people eyes to know that they fought.

However, Deulara found it disgraceful that people were openly talking about her.

When she entered the dining hall, a couple of the servants took glances here and there at her as they whispered into each others ears.  She didn't need anyone to tell her that they were whispering about her.

Growing annoyed by the unwanted attention, Deulara headed straight towards where she could see her father sitting.

Reaching the table, she found that Eletha had already arrived and there were only two spots left open for her to sit. One by her sister and the other by Iyrandrar, her father's advisor.
