The knights Lady
She looks to the break in the trees where the road from the North leads into and accross the meadow. The road splits at the lake and goes east up the hill to the Castle Draken and west to the fishing village at the bottom of the hill.
There are about thirty armored men on horseback. The banners and livery are black with a gold eagle. She does't recognize this Coat of Arms from any of her studies. This knight must be from beyond the borders of the realm.
The Men Ride by seeming not to notice her presence. As they pass one man slows and looks up at her from the road below. His comrads ride past him without pause. His blonde hair glints in the sunlight. The metal of his armor pales beside it. She is suddenly aware of a warmth in her cheeks that has nothing to do with the sun.
