Title: Jewel (Dignity) Rating: PG Word Count: 140 Pairing: Kel/Maura Round/Fight: 2/D Summary: The Jewel turns up at Dunlath
“It’s the Dominion Jewel,” Maura breathed, turning the broad stone over in her hands. “How in the Gods names did it end up in Dunlath?”
Kel cleared her throat. “Sir Alan of Pirate’s Swoop rode in this morning, half dead and clutching it.”
“Sir- Is he okay?” Maura asked, her voice cracking slightly at the mention of her former lover.
“The healers say he’ll live, against all odds,” Kel replied. “He may not fight again, though. He says he left with twelve men and his squire; only he and one other man made it. Its not entirely clear how he stole it from the Marens, though.”
Maura’s heart ached for Alan and his sacrifice. “I’ll go see him now,” she decided. “But Kel…” she trailed off, looking for the right words. “This changes everything.”
Kel nodded, looking grim. “I know.”
