A Month of Rest and Relaxation [closed]

[overworker]

Who: Towa Herschel and various friends
When: Throughout the month of Octeuril
Where: Various locations
What: Now that she's returned to Aefenglom, there are a good number of people that Towa would like to catch up with and check in on after being gone so long. Besides-- she could use a bit of a break.
Warnings: None.

(( If we planned something for this month, you're welcome to create your own starter! If you'd like to do something with Towa but we haven't plotted yet, let me know! I just want to keep an eye on how much I'm getting myself into. ))

No, I'm sure it's not. For the time being, there is someone holding the position temporarily-- at least until the other houses can come together and come to an agreement. But the civil war caused the nobles to lose a lot of power. The chancellor isn't making it easy for them. It will probably be some time before Erebonia sees true peace again.

[There's far too many things unsettled as it stands.]

...it is. But... while I dislike fighting, I want to believe that there's something more to it... a reason why things had to happen this way. Things that needed to change. For the sake of those who are still fighting... and those who were lost because of it.

[It's hard for her to accept that the death of one of her best friends could be for nothing. In her heart, she wants to believe that there's still hope that good will come of it.]

...I hope time passes quickly in our absence, then. So your peace will be there for you.

[ Part of her wonders if the same could be hoped for her world too – for Westeros and Essos both have their assortment of problems. ]

Those who speak up and want to break the wheel are the most important people in the world. [ Arrogant? Perhaps... ] They help shape the future, raise their worlds from men in smallclothes huddled under brush for shelter. Creators of the fire that lights a new pathway.

[ She catches the look in Towa's eyes and her brows furrow downward a bit, sympathetically. ]

...They will not be forgotten or lost without honor. I care not of the differences in our world, that is fact.
