Chapter 222: What do you know about Firron?
Sunny’s accident broke the tension int the room and woke up Void. The panther jumped down and chased the
dog out of the living room. As soon as Sunny’s lips and Void’s growling disappeared into the corridor, Mrs.
Elsworth ordered for the door to be closed.
Meanwhile, Lady Silver was staring at her daughter with raised eyebrows, her expression calm but surprised at
the stime. "Did you just threaten to throwout?" she asked, her voice uncertain.
Mauve nodded. "Yes mother, | did. | love and respect you but not even you can tell the crown princess to shut up.
People have lost their heads for smaller things than this. | implore you to understand and sit down." She was
polite, but forceful.
Lady Silver's lips trembled. It was hard to tell if she was biting back a response or trying to smile. But, she sat
down and clenched her fists. "I am calm." she forced out of her mouth. "I am sorry for losing my mind crown
princess." she stood up again and bowed slightly.
"Sit," Sigrid waved her hand, nonchalant about the whole thing. "I cannot fault you for worrying about your
daughter. However, | would like to make it clear that | am not the one that decided she should go to war, the
king did."
Lady Silver whimpered.
"Well, notspecifically but the mages." Mauve cin with a clearer explanation. "And not just mage knights
but all the mages whose magic is strong. You saw what we need when the mine collapsed mother. The king
ordered for a mage battalion to be formed. In times of war we must do our duty for the kingdom."
"That cursed magic." Lady Silver cried out. "What duty? The king is not sending his daughter to war, why is he
sending mine? Ever since your awakening, the troubles don’t seem to end. I thought it was a gift your magic. You
attracted more suitors, three princes and dozens of titled Lords are vying for your hand in marriage from the day
you were seen on television saving lives. In the end, you are choosing the worst of them."
"Is this about Prince Firron again?" Mauve rolled her eyes.
"Allowto weigh in here. Lady Silver," Sigrid jumped in. "maybe we should revisit my last question, the one |
raised before Mauve joined us. What do you know about prince Firron? Does anyone here know his character well
enough to say with absolute authority that he is the man best suited for Mauve?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey all traded gazes, the answer was silence.
Sigrid opened her arms and said, "So we all know nothing except for the fact that he is a charming prince which
is literally in his job description. A prince is supposed to be charming, he is taught how to smile, what to say, how
to dress. His hair is always combed to draw attention to the best features of his face. He is always supposed to
be a gentleman.
Has any of you looked beneath the perfect princely image he presents. Have you been to Solandor? Do you know
if he keeps a mistress or two in his kingdom?
What is the relationship with his family like? Is he a friend or foe to the current crown prince of Solandor because
in every kingdom or empire, the siblings that are against the one that takes the throne end up dead, disfigured
or exiled."
Lady Silver had been ready with a response but it dwindled. Reality hit her like a tempest breaking against
fragile glass.
Sigrid continued smoothly, "He expressed interest in Emmah, Thalassa, Mauve, Anna and Keeley. His actions
were subtle, not particularly seeming to settle for one Lady but all his choices are chosen carefully. A princess, a
powerful mage, the daughter of the richest commoner in Eldoria and the daughter of the strongest family of
knights in the kingdom.
The Valerius house is not noble but they are sof the greatest sworn protectors of the kingdom. They have a
legacy, fiefs and two castles. They own the entire island of Sunrise peaks.
Honor is their code, the king trusts them like no other family in the empire. Miss Keeley Valerius was not even at
that lunch when the princes arrived and yet Prince Firron sought her out.
Her closest friend is Anna Selwyn, the granddaughter of the richest merchant. Prince Firron has been seen with
both of them on separate occasions. To me, Prince Firron is calculating and in his wake, he will leave many
broken hearts and unfulfilled commitments."
"Maye he has a betrothed at home, it is why he won't commit." Mrs. Elsworth mentioned.
Sigrid nodded.
"Prince Eron has been pretty faithful to Brynlee Thorin." Mauve chipped in. "He chose her from the beginning and
he has not so much as looked at another woman in Eldoria. He has been living on the Thorin estate for a week
now | believe."
"It is true." Sigrid confirmed. "He asked for Brynlee’s hand in marriage. My grandfather rejected the proposal and
he raised the squestions | am raising about Prince Firron. We know next to nothing of these men except for
their royal titles.
We have never seen their empire. It could be fictional, they could be bandits or Medorian spies pausing as the
Princes. My grandfather said that srepresentatives from the family led by John will have to take a trip to
Solandor first.
After confirming Prince Eron’s identity, roots and good character, then Brynlee can marry him. After the wedding,
then Brynlee can follow him to Solandor but she will not go alone. Sof the young men looking to spread
their wings in business and retired knights from our family will have to follow her.
In a strange land, she will have family and protection at least. If she is wronged, they will all pack up and return
himmediately. Those that wish to stay at the twill do so but Brynlee must return home."
"Wow!" Mauve exclaimed.
Sigrid beamed with pride that was excreted from all her pores. "We Thorin’s look out for each other." She turned
her eyes to Lady Silver and asked, "Has Firron verbally expressed a desire to marry Mauve?"
Lady Silver thought about the times
Prince Firron had visited. It was
always with flowers and a smile. (He
had not Noh ¥dedirdto marry
her But he ad called her impressive,
beautiful and memorable. This did
not always equate to a desire to
marry. Marriage In royal families was
much more than finding one
impressive and memorable. The
