    Default M | IC | Roses on Sullied Hands | Dire Hoef x Luminous Heaven

    The Domme Estate - 4th Bell (10:00 AM) - Summer - 5th of Donovan, Year 234

    The summer sun encroaches across the sky as the morning moves unabridged by the celestial heavens above.

    The Domme Estate is now in full swing with the day's tidings. Servants from all walks of Britannia going about their business as the local wildlife calls to one another in simple, but effective, pleasantries.

    The Estate's Lord, Alduin Domme, wakes to with a stir as the sound of the breakfast bell breaks the simple silence of the master bedroom. He leans up from his covers and looks over at the glassed window at the sun shinning through. He gives a deep sigh as he realizes he has slept past the 3rd Bell, which meant that he wasn't going to get any additional sleep.

    He lumbers out of bed, stepping over to the glassed window and peering out at the estate that seems to be buzzing with life. He almost forgot how chaotic the mornings were, seeing as he wasn't in constant fear of being assassinated in his sleep. But, the peace of his estate was something that was most uncomfortable for him. Only now could he appreciate that fear.

    Taking in that very same fear, he is reminded of where his home now stands. Just North of the Eastern Sun, there lay a growing shroud of inky darkness that threatens everything it touches. This is to be the Nightrealms. This is to be his enemy, an enemy that he must defeat no matter the casualty.

    But as he angers himself about the Nightrealms and its horrific creations, he is reminded of who he is and where he stands politically with all the other houses. Thus he looks over his shoulder at the sleeping Faun. A wedlock made from the political union of two major houses. Vixes and Domme. Two juxtapose houses whose ideologies barely align. For what reason these two houses merged, Alduin could only assume.

    He finds himself sitting on his side of the queen-size bed, keeping his eyes forward as his thoughts begin to race of all the things he needs to do today. The list only seems to grow with each second that passes.

    Sleep was hard to come by these days. It had only been a month since House Domme and House Vixes officially untied their houses and Faun still found herself getting used to the many things in her wedded's estate. The ringing of the breakfast bell pulled her from her brief slumber and with a small yawn the new Lady Domme rose.

    Turning to her right she found Alduin had already risen, yet still in his night clothes. She had taken notice that he had started doing that as of late- just sitting on the edge of the bed with his back turned toward her, staring out the window. At first she thought him a slow riser, but later on a maid had informed her of the long list of duties he always went through each day and of the threat looming on the horizon. Of course she's heard of them- the Nighthaunts of the Night Realms- they were at first just a rumor, things she had heard in passing in her youth when she raided the tavern for informatin. But now that she had married into the lands closest to the ever growing threat the Lady found them very much real.

    Shaking herself from her thoughts Faun placed a hand on Alduin's back in a comforting manner. "The morning is with you." She greeted, voice thick with sleep, but quite as a whisper. "Shall I accompany you today and help with your duties?" The ex-Vixes may not know much about anything militant but she had good ears and wonderful problem solving skills. She was willing to make their political bond work in order to keep her people safe.

    "The morning is with you." She greeted, voice thick with sleep, but quite as a whisper. "Shall I accompany you today and help with your duties?"

    "And with you." He says softly as he perks up at the sound of the woman's voice.

    He glances over his shoulder at her before looking back. "If you are so inclined to, then I will have no issue in this. However, the first thing we must tackle is the morning feast. It appears the servants already have it prepared. The maids should be here in a few moments to take you to your dressing room, as will the butlers to mine." He slowly stands to his feet and paces around his side of the bed thinking of about what he must do.

    Faun couldn't help but to laugh softly at the way he described breakfast "Ah yes, those eggs are quite the tyrants." Stretching her arms she climbed out of bed and walked over to the window to catch a glimpse at the servants outside and the weather. "Do try to give the floor a break my dragon, I do believe that a ditch in our bedroom is the last thing we need." Just as she said that there was a knock at the door, before two maids entered.

    "The morning is with you Lady Domme, Lord Domme."

    "And with you." Stepping away from the window and towards the two maids Faun followed them to get herself ready for the day.

    He'd grumble a bit at that. He never really took well with the social norms of today.

    "Do try to give the floor a break my dragon, I do believe that a ditch in our bedroom is the last thing we need." Just as she said that there was a knock at the door, before two maids entered.

    "No promises." He said blankly as she was escorted out, and two butlers came shortly thereafter to take him as well. He'd nod to them, and they'd prepare his clothes for the day.

    As such, when the two converged again, they were sitting at one side of a round table. A feast-sized breakfast was there waiting for them.

    Alduin, of course, had a glimmer in his eye for he did not so much food in one place. He was practically elated to see so much food, but kept it in line with a smug look upon his face. One could easily tell that a man such as him was new to this way of life.

    She smiled to herself, having heard him as the doors were closing. Upon reaching her dressing room she engaged in conversation with both maids, whose names she learned were Elise and Saris.

    "How are you adjusting my lady?"

    "Well I suppose, still a little homesick, but that is to be expected no?"

    "Yes it has only been a month after all. How are you and our lord fairing? Oh careful the water is hot!"

    Faun nodded before carefully stepping into the tub and sinking into the heat with a contented sigh. She took a moment to consider Elise's question. The two of them have had amicable conversations and a friendly understanding of each other's boundaries- she was curious to know more about him, but for some reason she was afraid to ask.

    "We are on good terms but I must admit I do not know how to ask him more about himself. He is a bit standoffish."

    ​"Be patient with him my lady, he's been through a lot. But if you want to know more about him then ask him to spend the day with you."

    ....

    Faun couldn't help but smile at Alduin's reaction to the feast set before him. Her mind went back to the conversation with Elise and Saris and she wanted to try and ask him while they had this moment for themselves. "Alduin, I have a request if you do not mind hearing me out."

    "Alduin, I have a request if you do not mind hearing me out."

    He corrects himself as he hears Faun's voice cut through the silence of his mind. He blinks a bit and glances over to her. "Yes? What is it?"

    "Um...well I was wondering if you wouldn't mind spending the day with me tomorrow?" Faun could feel her cheeks grow slightly warm at her own question. She felt like a teenager all over again, which she told was rather ridiculous- this was her husband for Gods sake.

    He thinks about this for a moment.

    He knew that he was a busy man, but this is his wife. To not make time for someone he had to live with for the rest of his days was not exemplary for him. He could most certainly hear his mother scolding him for treating a fair woman such as Faun as merely an object of politics. He would never hear the end of it.

    He gives a soft sigh and stiff nod. "I suppose that won't be an issue. Sure. It's been a bit of a headcase with several bordering houses preparing for the coming Wave. So it's nice to get away from defense talk and just..enjoy..that time away."

    Faun nods and begins eating her breakfast, out of the corner of her eye, she can see Elise giving her a small thumbs up. She smiled softly, proud of herself for finally asking what was on her mind. "So what did you have planned for today?"
