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!
Sina been working around doing task been handing out to her, she enjoying working, a part of her has started to miss her last job because she was surrounded by books and nothing can change her love for books. However, she knows she need this job, dispute not really knowing how to act round court cause at the end of the day she is a commoner so she been trying her best to learn mannerism and how to act around the court cause if she was to represent the Queen she need to know how to hold herself.
However as she was heading past a couple of the office she noticed Scout, she heard that she is the advisor of law. so she possible know about her case however she walked towards her and gave her a small Curtsy, "Nice to see you Marchioness Kane." She fave a warm smile.

Scout was walking through the corridors, on her way back to her office, when she noticed a woman she hadn't seen in a while. A smile spread across her face as she returned the curtsy. "Miss Navarro. It's been a while since I last saw you." It was then that she noticed the collar, and she frowned for a second, but not very noticeable. Did she know about this? "I heard you're helping Lady Bellerose. Would you like a cup of tea?" She gestured at a door only a few metres away, where her office was located. If Sina had time, she would like to sit down and catch up for a bit.

Keeping a warm smile on her face, it felt odd that she was given a curtsy given that she still has the class of a commoner and normally commoners don't recieve curtsies."It has been a while, you are looking well." Her voice was soft she heard about Astor and sounded apologetic in it.
"I am helping Lady Bellarose, Prince Augustus asked me to help her. I would love a cup of tea." She smiled as she followed Lady Scout, "I would also like to congratulate you on your promotion."

Scout didn't hold any hard feelings about Ikisina and the crush she had on Astor, and now that he had passed away, how bad it might sound, there was no point in holding grudges anyway. She had even felt bad about it, because Ikisina had truly had a crush in him while Scout had only started to develop some feelings after they had married, and even then they hadn't been too serious.
Scout smiled when Sina said she'd like a cup of tea and showed her to the office. "Thank you", she said happily while sitting down. She called her assistant to prepare some tea. "I'm excited about this opportunity, but I'm also very excited about working together with Lady Bellerose. Have you had the chance to meet her yet?"

Following her into her office sitting down on a chair opposite Lady Kane. "I have had the chance to meet her, on my first day we spent the morning getting to know one another. Lady Bellarose seems to be a very kind and caring woman." she smiled. "I am learning a lot, still a few things I need to learn, but I feel those skills I need to learn from watching other members of the court." She explained.

She nodded, and listened. "She is a very kind woman. She is one of my closest friends. This is all new to her as well, so I'm sure you'll be able to help each other well." Another smile.
Her assistant came back with the tea, and poured two cups for them. Scout gestured at the milk and sugar, in case Ikisina wanted to add it to her tea.
"How have you been, miss Navarro? Like I said, we haven't seen each other in a while, and, well, I can't help but notice the collar. I'm not sure I know what happened?" It could be a sensitive topic, so she was careful.

"she is and hopefully I can help her rise to her full potential in the role." smiling, Sina was happy that Florina has a friend in Scout and Sina hope she can become friends with Florina too in some way.
Sina poured some milk into her cup of tea she was about to drink when she was asked about what happened she stopped in her movement, she know she will possible have to talk about it because this was one of the reason she got hired, however it was still sensitive. Taking a deep breath, "As you know I was staying with Mr Moore at his estate, however, he asked me to demonstrate my gift because he thought I could use it to stop the men who has been attacking me to stop. I asked him if he was certain... after that we were sexual activities, he then left and reported me saying that I used my gift to..." She couldn't say the rest without it being painful. "However, it wasn't true, the ... forcing him bit. So for a bit I was in the palace waiting for a decision to be made."
she explained. "Prince Augutus gave me two choice, to be collared or to be in jail. I chose to be collared because I felt stupid being naive enough thinking that Mr Moore cared enough that he wouldn't just leaveme let alone make a flase claim about me. been on patrol, then Prince Augutus ask me to have this role as the next step, if I do this role well the collar will come off."

Scout could sense that it was a difficult subject for Ikisina, and understandably so. If Ikisina looked up at the woman, she would be met with kind eyes and a soft expression on Scout's face. She remained silent while the brunette finished pouring milk into her cup, and while she took a deep breath.
Her eyes widened while Ikisina explained what had happened with Elliot Moore. She hadn't spoken much with the man, but he hadn't seemed like the type to do something like this to a woman. "Oh, my", she said, placing a hand on her chest. "I can't say anything in regard to the legal aspect, but let me say, as a woman, that I am so sorry, miss Navarro." She believed Ikisina. Scout couldn't imagine that she would use her Gift in order to have sex with Elliot. She was sensitive and gullible. She one hundred percent believed that Elliot had lied about what had happened.
"A collar is a bittersweet solution, for sure, but I hope that you can find some peace knowing that people can't accuse you of something now, and that it will come off if you do this job well. I would advise you to ask Florina anything, anytime you're unsure about what to do, and since I'll be helping, I'm here, too." She took a sip of her tea. "I'm really glad prince Rainecourt has given you the chance to work in the palace with us. You're a good person." She smiled.

Sina lowered her head, "There is no need for you to say sorry Lady Scout, you didn't do anything. What done is done, all I can do now is learn from my mistakes and move forward." Taking a soft breath as she forced a smile back on her face. Elliot was in the past, doesn't matter how much it hurt her to say that, it has to be for the best because otherwise, she can't move forward with her life.
"I possible need training to how to hold myself in front of a crowd because as a commoner, we don't really stand in front of a crowd." When Scout said that she was a good person, there was something in her eye, not sadness, but something like a spark, after years of trying to be good, wanting to be a good person, but years of fear of people thinking that she was a monster because she was a gifted. So far her to hear that. "All anybody can do is be the best person they can be, I am still learning but i know and promise that my heart is making sure Lorendale is safe and happy,"

Although Ikisina was very mature and calm when she spoke, and it impressed Scout. False accusation were hard to get past, but the young woman wanted to leave it in the oast, which was admirable. Scout did see that Ikisina was still having a difficult time with it, but that was completely understandable.
"Don't worry about the crowd. Of course I don't know how lady Bellerose will go about it, but I suspect she will do most of the talking in front of a crowd." She smiled again, hoping to make Ikisina feel at ease. Since Sina would just be helping, and she was a commoner, it was unlikely that she would have to do the talking in behalf of the royal court. It was something lady Bellerose would be doing, as holder of the Advisor of Gifted title and noble.
"Beautifully said", she responded to Ikisina's wisdom about being the best person one could be. "To me it's clear that you just want what's best for Lotendale and for Gifted, and that's admirable."

Sina is now bearing the consequences of her caring nature, which has left her feeling emotionally drained and heartbroken. It is not easy to invest so much of one's time and energy into someone only to be left with disappointment and hurt. Nonetheless, Sina is trying her best to move on from this experience and learn from it. She is determined to be more cautious in the future and not let her emotions cloud her judgment.
"I am sure she will think of something she is a smart woman." from what she learnt about Bellarose is she seems kind and caring and dedicated to her work, and they seem to get along.
"Thank you, lady Kane. Maybe I should of listened to you more about laying low, I thought I was laying low with just going to work, then going to..." She couldn't say his name.

In her head she kept on saying to not to blame herself, but there are times where she reply the event of the night, trying to think if she could of done anything different. Taking a deep breath, even though she want off load her feelings she remembered that both Astor and Dresden told her she trust too easy, that she an open book. She tries to close her heart.

The blonde nodded when Ikisina proposed to talk about happier moments. "That's a good idea", she said, smiling, but it quickly faltered. "Lately, happy moments have been scarce, but I'm hopeful about the future. I think we'll both enjoy our new opportunities."

"All we can do is take one step at a time in times of uncertainty" Sina smiled, she mostly telling herself that she had to. Sina tried to think of a happy moment outside work, that one little spark that she can look forward to. "I've been looking at my own place. Somewhere nicer to live hopefully somewhere safe, but close to the palace." And that is affordable.
