“And that was how your ma beat Ralon of Malven,” Sir Raoul of Goldenlake told Thom of Pirates Swoop. Thom is Lady Alanna’s and Baron George Cooper of Pirates swoop oldest child. “I knew she would do it,” Gary-Gareth-of Naxen the younger told his companions. King Jonathon and Queen Thayet were sitting on a couch in George’s library. Gary and Raoul were sitting at a table sipping wine The Baron and Baroness were lounging a in a chair together. Thom and his friends, Prince Roald and Princess Kalasin were sitting on the floor. “We were all proud of her,” Jonathon said while smiling at aAlanna. “Hey I was the one who taught her,” George said sternly. His eyes were laughing. “We don’t care who taught my ma. We just want some adventure,” said Thom. “Thom! Watch your tone.” Alanna told her son sternly. “I know the know the perfect story. I haven’t mentioned it to anyone in over a decade. I was between life and death-“ Jon started. “Jon! Are you sure you want to tell that story? I didn’t think you remember that night,” Alanna cut in. “I’m sure.

Actually several of my lives, come to think of it.” Jon commented. Everyone chuckled. “I wouldn’t mind going back to Persopolis,” Gary said. “That’s because you have been in the desert as much as Alanna and me,” Raoul told his friend. “Who is the governor now. I want to bubby up to him so I could go back to the Sunset Room. It was a beautiful sight,” Gary said. “Yeah that was. But Lord Martin in a temper wasn’t,” Alanna commented.
