Born of the Blood
Chapter 10: Girl Thinks About Boy (And most certainly has a crush on him) - Part 2 of 3
[Pink, 9th Moon, Cemrota of Stahl, Year of Slate East] (April 1990)
She watched him in the courtyard beneath her balcony right after the noon meal later that day. Marlene had heard her handmaidens twittering about him while they prepared her face and hair for the coming day.

According to gossip, he was probably going to replace the elder Caeli. Those blue robes would match his eyes… "Dreamy" was the word she'd heard the female palace staff apply to him.

"Dreamy, indeed," she whispered.
