In Natticulus Dana sat on the council listening to discussions on the best possible way to deal with Jennicus who was guilty of high treason and murder. Reclaiming Lesbiannicus was at the forefront of everyone’s mind, however at this moment Danas mind were filled with thoughts of Lara. Since their last encounter she hadn’t seen nor spoken to her in days and she had an inkling as to why Lara was keeping her distance but she needed answers. Dana sent message to those who knew her only never to receive a response. It was no secret of the queens intentions of marrying her off. By marrying her off it would forge new alliances increasing the size of her mothers army and power. Now, that Lesbiannicus had fallen it became dire for Dana to marry and quickly. There was just one foil in the queens plans and that was Dana had secretly fallen in love with another.

When Dana informed Lara of her mothers intentions Lara was crushed. The thought of Dana lying with another was too much to bare and there was absolutely nothing she could do about it. She could confess her love for Dana to the queen begging and pleading on her hands and knees only to have her pleas fall on deaf ears. She held no status, no wealth, and was of no noble blood.  What she did have was worth no value to the queen just to offer her heart truly and completely to Dana. She loved Dana and wanted nothing more than to be with her even if it meant sneaking behind everyones back just to spend time with her. Hearing she would be wed soon Lara felt sooner or later she would have to let her go. It was that day she decided to begin the slow and rigorous process of removing Dana from her heart. After the meeting Dana hoped on her horse and rode to the stables where Lara sometimes worked desperately hoping she would be there.
