Forest Prayers | Christian and Indira

littlenorashaw-deactivated20141

Indira had spent the evening listening to one of the maids trying to convince her to dispose of her saris and wear the fashions the noblewomen wore. She knew the girl meant well, but she had her own reasons. Her clothes were a reminder of who she was,her armor, and that she was only a visitor in this country. On one hand she was a foreign widow, a little girl without a country,a home or a protector.

Yet on the other side of that half truth,she was a little girl with a large sum of money,gifts that came from her gods,and no true ties to any ruler. So little girls like her without a country would build empires in the dark and build up and beyond, never crumbling.

The cost of such an empire was allies and blood which was why after shooing away the maid, Indira retreated to the woods and performed a protection spell to ease her mind by shedding her blood. During the ritual she heard voices, pagan prayers that brought her peace. The voice sounded familiar… Indira pulled her sleeve down over her bleeding arm, waited for a moment before following the voice all the way to the stables. She was taken by complete surprise to see that it was King Christian. Was he a pagan? There was only one way to find out.

Indira put down her hood and bobbed a quick curtsy." Your Majesty. It is a beautiful night is it not? I was on my way from a walk in the woods. I could have spent the whole evening there except I heard the strangest thing, but I will not burden you with my silly talk."

Christian was startled to see the grand duchess up at such a late hour and in the stables as well. Her words were more alarming. There was something about the way she had said about her walk in the woods made Christian's heart briefly stop. "The blood woods?" Christian asked as he put his horse back and took off all the equipment. "Its not a safe to venture out to, even more so at night." He wanted to ask about the words that she had heard but if he had pressed her too much then he would make it clear that it was possibly him that had uttered those pagan prayers.

"I doubt a woman like you has ever had something like silly talk." He wasn't flirting, or charming her, he was simply trying to compliment her but given the situation, it probably wasn't the best thing to do. Christian moved closer to the grand duchess and noticed a bit of blood hitting the floor. "Grand duchess Indria are you hurt? You seem to bleeding." Christian was more cautious now. He had heard that the blood pagans were possibly in the castle but he could not even think that a grand duchess was one... "Why were you in the blood wood and why are you bleeding?"

Forest Prayers | Open

Feeling the pressures of already not having an heir or not even the smallest sign of having a child that was a legitimate heir to his throne, Christian grew anxious that Caroline would not bare him a child. The young king, though his throne and crown were going unthreatened, was eager to start his own royal family and carry on his noble family name. He had prayed to the christian god but he must not have been listening so Christian decide to take things into his own hands. In the dead of the night, the pagan king knew that the blood wood would be the one place near the castle grounds that would be free of any members of court of guards patrolling, making it the perfect spot for his pagan prayers.

In his bag, the king had packed sage, a bucks antler that had been ground into a fine powder mix with a splash of milk and a candle that had been colored blue, in favor of a male heir. He knew that his wife would want little princesses to dote on, but as his mother in law had often said, there was plenty of time for a girl. In the forest, Christian took out the sage and burnt it and then placed the blue colored candle in the center of his alter. Christian took another final look around before he finally poured the powdered mix in a circle around the candle and lit the candle and then closed his eyes to pray. "Divine Father, We call thee El, Priapus, Ing, Min and Cernunnos, you, whose sheltering arms shield and comfort your young, whose power is seen in the mighty river, the nourishing Sun, bless this union of man and mate and give me a son who shall have a great fate." Once his prayer had been said, Christian waiting for a minutes and blew out the candle and returned to the castle smelling of burnt sage. As he quietly put his horse back in the stables, he was startled by the sight of a person, waiting outside the castle doors.

"Come and meet my new nephew and god son if I recall." Christian beamed proudly as he held the young boy in his arms for the first time. He had not expected his sister to pass through France with a new born, but he was glad for the visit. "Marquess of Bodden, my little nephew Lord Viktor of Prussia."

Oh, come on. Walking around with a baseball bat instead of a gun doesn’t make me the most intimidating guard, now does it?

It just means I prefer a more hands-on approach.

"A gun is easier concealed than a baseball bat which means the inmates won't think they are under threat. Put the bat away, in fact, give it to me."

"I hope it doesn’t go. They need a sense of humanity brought to them; being harsh all the time isn’t really fair. Stefan, a new correctional officer.”

"They are criminals, most are in here for murder so I think they've lost the right of humanity. Stefan, are you Damon's brother?"

"You stick out like a sore thumb. You're too friendly to the inmates but that'll go soon enough. I'm Christian, one of the counselors here."

"Ho can you not care? She can keep you in here or have yuo forgot that with all your sarcasm?"

"Fool or not, it is very unorganized around here, it makes me miserable." Leave it to Drama Queen Caroline to be miserable by lack of organization, a deep sigh escaped her as she turned her heeled feet. "Alright, I will head off then, that file won’t find itself."

kingchristianofdenmark

"Already?" Christian asked, sounding a little offended. He moved the papers to a draw in his desk and looked up at his wife. "You know I actually thought you may have come in here to see me, not to hunt down a file."
