Title: But Now I’ve Gone And Thrown It All Away Rating: PG Length: 193 Competitor: Raoul Round/Fight: Final! Summary:
-
“It’s this stupid bum leg!” Kel said furiously, gesturing toward it with both hands. The ankle was bent in at an unnatural angle, the rest of the leg twisting inward into such an unattractive mess that Kel was too embarrassed to move about with a blanket covering her lap, even in the summer. “I could have been out there, with them – with him – ”
Ilane sighed, setting down the needlework she’d been working on, turning to look at her daughter. “Keladry,” she said quietly, “I know that there are places you would rather be, and I know that it is hard, but you must accept that you survived a battle that many didn’t.”
“He was a greater knight than me! He should have survived, not me! There’s no heir, mama, there’s nothing – Goldenlake will just decay into nothing – ”
“It will be returned to the crown. It will be maintained by a steward until a new family is ennobled.” Ilane picked up her needlework again, watched as Kel angrily pulled the wedges from beneath the wheels on her chair and carried herself out of the room. “You will forgive and forget,” she murmured.

Oh, and the angst is back! *will not cry* poor Kel! She will probably feel guilty and miserable forever!
