My Little Dove

"How are you going to break the news to Laina?" Marius asked as they were flying. 

They had spent a wonderful time in the Prism Sanctuary. But as the sun began to set on the horizon, it was time for Margaret to return to Kinshearth. Marius's question made her think. 

While not much has changed, she was quite certain some of the more magic inclined members of the court, and Laina would notice something different about her. How was she going to break the news to Laina?

"I don't know…" 

"I might have something that can help," Marius suggested. 

They landed in a secluded part of the palace gardens. Carefully remaining hidden, Margaret and Marius stayed hidden between the hedges and the wall of the palace. 

They both took to their human forms. Marius asked for Margaret's hand. She held it out as Marius traced a simple rune on the palm of her hand. 

The rune emitted a soft glow of light before disappearing completely.
