She was a stickler for ‘the proof’. Any job carried out must be reported back with evidence that it was done.
I had to do her bidding each time no matter how I felt about the mess that the task entailed. Dukes, serfs or Prince of the realm were all the same to her.
But this little child, she was different. The rumours were true she was as beautiful as the light of day, more beautiful than the queen herself. Run young Snow I said. A boar was sacrificed. The place postal service did the rest.
Signed, sealed and delivered.
