Fates Hands

Chapter 36

Chapter 36

Adira sat in their chambers, refusing to think on anything of the past that had happened. There was nothing good to dwell on in the past, so she was thinking up baby names, they found out that they were having a boy. She still couldn’t settle on a name just yet.

Duncan was not helping, he kept coming up with weird names that no kid should have to endure. His last set of choices consisted of: Pubert, Ingleberk, Bertran and Huckleberry. Adira knew he was just making her laugh. She even thought of choosing one of them just to mess with him for awhile. 2

She had also been deciding on whether or not to go see Alfred. She knew it was stupid and it would not change anything. She just felt bad that his sentence was so harsh. To die slowly, alone in the dark. It has been a week, and at his age he is probably gone already.

As stupid as it all was, she gathered a basket of food and other items, nothing that would aid in his escape. Well that depended on how you looked at it. She felt that she just wanted to show him some mercy. Something she was never given.

Perhaps it was that he was dying alone and in the dark, she didn’t know for sure but she made her way to the dungeons anyway. Hoping that they would let her in.

The guard stopped her at the gate…

“Lady Adira what brings you to the dungeons, this is no place for a lady in your condition.”

“My condition, what is it with all the male population, you make it sound like it’s a disease. I’m pregnant, not made of fragile glass that I might break at the slightest whim.”

“As for why I am here, I wish to see one of your prisoners.”

“Which one do you wish to see my Lady.?”

“Alfred”

“The guard looked taken aback, that prisoner is off limits my lady.”

“Listen, I understand why he was sentenced to death, I understand that the king says that he has to die alone, I understand everything except one thing, why. I know what his thoughts are of me, what I don’t understand is why he would betray his King.”

“I want answers and the only way to get them is to ask Alfred before he dies.”
