Backdated to a day or two after this thread.
It had taken several days for the reality to sink in. She was fleimkepa; she was Beta. There was still much that Magpie had to learn of Drageda and of the ways of her heda, but she was eager to rise to the occasion. It was different before, with trust lacking... without trust, why should she try? And why should she try, if there was no trust? But she and Thuringwethil had come to an understanding, recently, and she was glad that the Commander had extended an olive branch-- it was now, with the stakes higher than they had ever been, that Magpie would prove what she was capable of.
Still.
She was a creature of love, and she was not unaware of the conflict this sudden shift in power might bring. Indeed, she would have advised against Thuringwethil taking such an action if it were not her personal benefit on the line; but the step closer to a family that would be her own could not be forfeit. It was now, more than ever, that Magpie would need to tread carefully and ensure that both she and her heda remained safe from challenge.
ALL WELCOME threads are considered fair game to me, even if they are already in progress. My characters will often make one- or two-post cameos; if you'd like me to continue posting, just tag me and/or acknowledge my character!
