tadabug2000 3495 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Lady Elisabelle D'Abbasia glances over the court missive, holding that innocent slip of paper with a strangehold. "I must have a role." The spoiled rotten twelve year old declared, knowing that having a position within the courts will allow her to keep up with the trends before the trends even come in. Her gaze, much like her fathers, slips to her newly made necklace sitting prettily within its box. "And you will help me." 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
