The peace that formerly reigned in Terra Nova has eroded, now little more than a memory. War ravages the continent. Disputes divide kingdoms; ideals divide families. The quest for power consumes absolutely and indiscriminately. None are immune to its allure.
Who will rise and who will fall? Only time—and ambition—will tell.

Change in how times flows. Was 4 IC seasons, now only 2 IC seasons per 1 OOC year.
5 whole years of Heir Apparent goodness! When I started the site, I knew I was hunkering down for the long haul, but I never could have predicted the numerous twists and turns this roleplay site has seen. Hundreds of plots, characters, and members have come and gone, all leaving marks on the site. I am so very thankful for those who have invested. Because you keep coming back, keep getting on, and keep writing, Heir Apparent has the legacy it does today. Three cheers to us!

Helena has already thought much of this out. There had been only two possible outcomes in her mind for this meeting. Annabeth wouldn't be on the street, so she would have to wrap her head around something new. The woman was more than aware of the Porter's usual activities. They would fit in well enough to school life. "Very well... You'll start at the beginning of next week. No pomp or circumstance and you can be certain, young lady, that I will be there to keep an eye on you every single step of the way."
She would wait for Annabeth's response, only an agreement would be acceptable.

Annabeth nodded. "Yes ma'am." She at least will get her daughter into the routine of her going to work and school hours. Thankfully she got herself a nanny who helped when she was at work. She knows that there wasn't another option in the current situation she was in. She was grateful for this situation the chance that was given to her.

Helena couldn't help but give Annabeth a sideways glance. She'd lost count of just how many times she'd been answered with a "Yes ma'am". What might have been acceptable, even desirable within the ranks of the soldiery could become tiresome when coming from someone she was actually trying to have a conversation with. "Your conversational skills are truly beyond par..." The elder couldn't help but grumble. Although had the younger woman shown herself to have been overly chatty, she would likely have been met with a similar complaint in that regards.
"Unless you have any further questions, I think that we're quite done here. I'll have word sent to the school to prepare for a new arrival and will expect you there at the beginning of next week."

Annabeth looked down when she mentioned her conversation skills. She is normally better at conversations, the first time they mat they had an amazing conversation. However, in this situation, she doesn't know what she can say that would make any difference. Plus she was scared that if she speak she would get herself into more trouble, it was partly her mouth's fault she was in this mess to start off with. "I will work on that lady Kane." Her voice was soft.
She wanted to say no ma'am in regard to if she had questions. "I have no questions. Thank you." If she was allowed to leave she would give a curtsy and started to make her way back home putting her hood up as she stepped outside. She doesn't want people seeing her.
Helena would dip her head out of force of habit more than actual respect. As far as the elder was concerned, the young woman was now done and dealt with. Of course, she would keep her ear to the ground. Should Annabeth even think of doing something that could prove to be embarrassing for her associates, then the old marchioness would make good on her earlier threats. For the time being, she was going to assume that the lesson was learned. "You may go now." Was all that she would say.
It was one matter dealt with, of course, there were always plenty of others ready to rear their ugly heads. Helena was ready to face them, it gave her some sense of purpose in her older years.
