|
Sister Dear
I have received word just yesterday, that our father has been killed. The manner of his death is really of no concern to me. What does concern me now is that I am now the Head of the MelGair family.
With that being said, As Head of the Melgair family.
I want you to return to Your family. I want you to leave Sanctus and that husband of yours. Bring your child and return to were you rightfully belong. A place will be made ready for you and your son, in your new home and your son will be taught all he needs to know about how the world really works.
Remember sister dear you are a MelGair first and as the head of the MelGairs I am COMMANDING you to return home to be with your rightful family.
Your Brother Zeth MelGair
Eldest, Head of MelGair household _________________

Sitting in her garden on the roof, she admired the serenity the architect had created for her. Many thoughts ran through her head.
The peacefulness was broken by the sound of Ayana's voice. "M'Lady there is a messenger here to see you."
Toni rose from her seat and sighed. "Now what?" she asked herself. She had received word of her father's death only a few days ago. She made her way down to the second floor and glanced over the balcony to see a man clad in peasants clothes standing in her grand hall. As she descended the stairs he looked up at her.
Bowing his head he spoke, "M'Lady McStravick?"
Nodding her head she replied, "Aye. What is it you have for me?"
"I bring word from a man who has claimed he is your brother."
She raised her brow slightly, "My brother, hmm?"
He nodded and held the scroll out to her. She took the scroll and began to read it. Her face took on a look of humored ire.
"Hmm, wait here please."
She went into her office and closed the door behind her. Sitting down at her desk, she pulled a fresh parchment from the drawer and began to pen a response....
My dear brother Zeth,
I am both humored and bothered by the message I received from you.
I too, received word of our father's death. I see now where my compassion has stemmed from, unlike yours.
I acknowledge your position as head of the MelGair family, however, I made vows to my husband and my kingdom which I serve with honor. I'm sure you of all people would understand honor. I am a McStravick-Skyfire now. The only orders I take are from my King.
I follow the light as too shall my son. Niall will learn what he needs from his father, the King, and myself.
My home is here where it has been for many years. Here in Sanctus.
I will not forget I am a MelGair as well, yet my priorities are to what I have now, not what I was denied as a child.
In Virtue,
Toni McStravick-Skyfire
Lady Archon
Duchess of Sanctus
She rolled the parchment tightly and tied it with a gold ribbon. Taking her wax, she heated it and let some drip over the seam of the scroll to which she impressed the emblem of the Skyfire family.
She went out to the hall and handed the letter back to the messenger. She offered him some gold for his travels and gave the directions to her brothers' home in Umbra.
"Make sure he gets this."
The messenger nodded and turned for the door.
"May the virtues guide you and keep you safe sir."
She returned to her garden and let out a small laugh.
"Commanding me? Who does he think he is?" She shook her head slightly knowing her response would not go well with her brother. _________________ Lady Toni McStravick-Skyfire

Zeth just happened to be on his way out the door when the messenger that he had hired in cove came walking up the front steps to the wolfs den.
"Sir I have a reply from your sister" the man said as he handed over the scroll.
Zeth unrolled the scroll and read it. His eye saw red, his mouth went dry. "So she thinks its funny". He reached out and grabbed the messenger by the throat, with one hand. Then in the blink of an eye he had transformed into the wolf. The kill was one of the most gruesome in his memory. He let body part fall, and left them laying on the steps when they landed.
Zeth transformed back into his human self gathered up the scroll and with his finger dipped in blood wrote on the scroll.
YOU ARE A MELGAIR AND YOU WILL TAKE YOUR PLACE BY MYSIDE ONE WAY OR ANOTHER
He then walked into umbra and grabbed the first person he saw. "You will take this to Lady Mcstravick, Now" he screamed at the young girl.
As she crossed the bridge heading out of Umbra on the road to Sanctus he yelled behind her "fail and you will beg for death!"
Zeth ran around in wolf form for the longest time trying to cool off before going home _________________

She had just finished harvesting her plants when she heard Ayana once again announce the arrival of a messenger.
She knew who the message would be from and hastily made her way down the stairs. This time it was not the gentleman who had been to her home earlier, yet a young girl. Her eyes held fear as she presented the scroll.
She took it gently from her and read the bloodied words. Her face took on a look of anger. "So he thinks he shall make demands of me? We will see."
Handing the girl some gold for her trouble, she told her softly, "Tell him his demands have fallen on deaf ears...I am already in my place." She sent her off with a blessing for the virtues to keep her free from harm.
She looked to Ayana. "My home is here! I will not be told where I have to be. He wants someone by his side, he has his mate for that! What does he think he can do, force me to go there? I think not."
With that said, she stormed off to her office and slammed the door, leaving Ayana stunned into silence at her show of anger. _________________ Lady Toni McStravick-Skyfire
