Peculiar Lady

Wura sighed, she really was done for now, if she decided to change her mind and not go on with all these plans and the wedding, she would end up doing a lot of damage to many people, her wedding dress was now here, and the wedding was in less two days.

Wura tapped the side of her cheeks lightly, as if waiting for her to wake up and that all this was just a dream, but to her dismay it did nothing at all.

"Umm my princess are you alright?" asked Nora as she finished hiding away the wedding dress, and she turned to look at Wura who's eyes were closed and her hands were on her cheeks.

"Ah… yes Nora, yes I am alright" said Wura as she opened her eyes and she smiled at Nora who looked concerned.

"But you were touching your face, is something wrong?" asked Nora, because her duty was to make sure that Wura was alright, and if Wura felt the slightest bit unwell, she would have to go and call the physician immediately.

"Oh well that was nothing at all Nora, I was just patting my face, nothing more" said Wura as she smiled.

"Oh well alright my princess" said Nora.

"Yes" said Wura as she smiled.

"Nora" called Wura.

"Yes my princess??" asked Nora.

"What will you be wearing to the wedding?" asked Wura with a smile.

"Ah… well…." Said Nora as she really had not given it much thought at all, to her, it was just another normal day, where she would be relieved of all her duties.

"Were you not invited to the wedding??" asked Wura as Nora hesitated, if that was the case, she would march right to Liam's office (with Nora's direction of course) and she would fight him for such injustice.

"Ahh, no, no My princess, that is not it at all" said Nora.

"His highness had invited the whole Kingdom to your wedding" said Nora.

"In fact all the Castle staff are relieved of their duties on that day" said Nora as she quickly explained, as she saw the slightly upset look on Wura's face.

"Alright then" said Wura, at least now she knew that Liam was not heartless.

"So what will you wear to the wedding?" asked Wura once again.

"Well to tell you the truth my princess" said Nora as she bowed her head down.

"I really do not have anything to wear on that day" said Nora as she felt embarrassed.

"Then what did you have in mind to wear before?" asked Wura.

"I really did not give it much thought my princess" said Nora as she shook her head, she had not thought about what she was going to wear at all, and now that Wura had brought it up, she realized that she had absolutely nothing to wear on that day that the entire Kingdom would be well dressed.

She would be the odd one out yet again, not like she wanted any attention drawn to herself, she wanted to stay in the shadows on that day.

"Well there is no need to worry Nora" said Wura as she smiled.

"I am sure that everything will be arranged by then" said Wura as she smiled and she nodded her head.

"Alright my princess" said Nora as she did not know why, but for some odd reason, she felt like Wura had planned something, which was very weird, but she could not trust Wura at all, she had a slightly mischievous look on her face.

"My princess… are you planning anything??" said Nora as she just had to ask, the look on Wura's face was making her rather uneasy.

"Oh No… not at all Nora" said Wura as she smiled at Nora even more, and that made Nora even the more uneasy.

From taking care of Wura for the past few days, Nora had learnt that Wura was a very peculiar lady, and she did not know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Alright my princess" said Nora as she shook her head slightly.

"My princess, do you need me to do anything for you?" asked Nora as she saw that Wura seemed to be thinking.

"Yes… yes I do need you to do something for me Nora" said Wura as she snapped out of her thoughts and she turned to look at Wura.

"I need you to enquire for me if I shall eat lunch with his Majesty and his highness" said Wura as she smiled at Nora.

She had not seen Liam all throughout the day, not that she wanted to see him in the first place, it was just that she had been in her room for the whole day, and she had not interacted with anyone else except for Nora and Lilia who had just left.

She was very bored, and at least when she and Liam would have their disagreements she would be a bit entertained, but now everything was quiet and she did not like that.

"Alright my princess, I shall do that" said Nora as she nodded her head.

"And do you require anything else before I go?" asked Nora.

"No Nora, Thank you, that would be all" said Wura as she smiled.

"Alright my princess, I shall return soon" said Nora as she bowed.

"Thank you Nora" said Wura she smiled at Nora as Nora left the room.

…

"Sorry to disturb you Liam, but we need your assistance" said Zuph as he walked into Liam's office as Liam was working on some important things.

"What is it Zuph?" asked Liam as his eyes never left his desk as he read through some documents.

"Well the Knights need to train, and we need your permission to go out of the Castle grounds" said Zuph as he did not mind Liam working at all.

"What happened to the Castle's training grounds?" asked Liam as he looked up and his eyes met Zuph's.

"Well it snowed heavily last night, and the entire grounds are neck deep in snow, it is impossible to train there, and the guards on standby are trying to clear the snow" said Zuph as he sighed and he sat down across Liam's desk.

"And the knights cannot miss their training, they are still suffering from the punishment that Mero assigned to them" said Zuph.

"Which means that the only other way for them to train is in the other side of the forest beside the Castle, there is very flat ground there, and I hear that area is not usually covered in snow due to the hot springs there that melts the snow" said Zuph.

"Will the ground not be too slippery for training then?" asked Liam.

"Well I doubt so, from what I hear, only the steam melts the snow" said Zuph.

"Besides if the ground is slippery or moist, it would be good for them, Mero would like them to train harder" said Zuph as he laughed, he truly felt bad for Mero's punishment on them, but on the other hand, it was hilarious to see someone experience Mero's wrath for a change.

"*Sigh*, Well alright then, let us go" said Liam as he sighed and he closed the document he was going through and he stood up.

"Alright" said Zuph as he stood up.

"Zuph please ask the man in the stables to prepare Nolan for me, and ready the troops" said Liam.

"You are coming with us?" asked Zuph

"Yes, I also planned to speak with them, and what better time than now?" asked Liam.

"Alright then, I shall do the things you asked me to do" said Zuph as he walked away and he went to the direction of the stables.

Liam sighed as he walked to his office door, and he opened the door and walked into the hallway.

"Ahh your highness" said Nora as she caught sight of Liam stepping out of his office and Liam turned around.

"I am sorry to bother you" said Nora as she bowed her head.

"That is alright" said Liam.

"Is something the matter with Lady Diwura?" asked Liam as he knew that was the only reason that Nora would come and see him.

"No your highness, she is doing alright" said Nora.

"She asked me to enquire from you, if you and his Majesty shall join her for lunch this noon?" asked Nora.

"Oh…" said Liam, he did not expect Wura to ask such a question.

"Well we will not be able to do so" said Liam.

"I am just about to step out, seeing as the troops require my assistance" said Liam.

"And his Majesty has also stepped out earlier to meet one of the Dukes" said Liam.

"So we shall not be able to join her for lunch, and neither for dinner, seeing as I am not sure of when I shall return" said Liam as today was a very busy day for he and Alaric.

"Oh well alright your highness, I shall inform the Princess" said Nora.

"Alright then" said Liam as he waved Nora off and she bowed and she went her way as Liam went on his own way.
