Earning the Love of a Princess

22 March, 1361. Magdaline Castle, Islia

William knew from the moment that Magdaline Castle's spires and towers came into their view, what was expected of them. Having been sent to complete a diplomatic mission for the crown meant that the minute they reached the castle, they had to go directly to King Edward's presence chamber and announce their arrival. More than likely, the king would want to receive an immediate verbal report of their visit with the Marquis of Niarnol.

Only once they had spoken with the king and answered all of his questions to his satisfaction, would the two of them be permitted to to retire from his presence. Only then would they be allowed to eat, to bathe, to unpack and rest after their journey.

William was also very well aware that his wife had no intention of following the rules. He knew, like he knew his own name, that Camilla would go nowhere and speak to no one until she'd been reunited with their child.
