Frelia’s Finest: Part 3 (rewrite)

Part 3

 

Joshua was Prince of Jehanna.

Well. I hadn’t seen that one coming. It was almost a bigger shock than Eirika rejecting me. Actually, Joshua was having far worse a day than I was, because he was no sooner revealed to us as Prince than he became King as well, for his mother Ismaire died in his arms.

I formally gave him the letter from my father, and then someone set the hall on fire.

The first we knew of it was a soldier came rushing up to all us royals. “Sire! Sire! Fires have broken out all through the hall!”

Ephraim Meets Syrene

A small sketch of where I (gasp) replace Seth and co. with Syrene!! (down here towards the end of the chapter)I think it makes sense, personally, and considering I already wrote Eirika’s Story and have most of the characters in there, especially Seth, I needed to use other characters to provide emphasis. I’m gonna miss Kyle and Forde, though. They were wasted on Eirika’s Story. But they needed to go with her. No more silly banter from the social knights, but Syrene is here to save the day! I like her. I pair her with Innes, though that’s probably so uncanon that people are shooting me dirty looks now. I’m not sure what to do with the other Frelians, though. I don’t find them the most interesting characters, actually. I’ll figure out something.
