Chapter 101

Elizabeth Lawsend made her first trip away from her mother's breasts at two years old when she was betrothed to Gandalf Squire. It was tradition for a girl to leave her parents' home when she's betrothed and that didn't exclude the two year olds.

Laisa Blackwood wept that day when Elizabeth was taken from her arms, even though three wet nurses accompanied Elizabeth, and five knights who were supposed to stand guard until she comes of age. Still Laisa blamed her husband for all of it, and she didn't eat nor drink for a week ever since the Squires departed from Lawsend City.

Cregan tried to talk some sense to his wife, "It's the only way we can get back to him for what he did to our friend, Lord Boross" he said.
