"And so long as he is handsome too, don't let me marry an ugly man." Arya giggled, "Then you'll know that it isn't my wishes and I'm being forced to." She stuck out her tongue playfully.

Joanna laughed too.
"Who would dare force your hand? Your brother loves you too much to do such a thing and no-one else has the right to attempt to marry you off."

She chuckled, "I don't know. The same people that have tried to kill me maybe, to blackmail me somehow, who knows." She shrugged, "I don't have my father to watch over me, my brother is quite busy dealing with his own lands than to worry about his sister at court all the time."

"You have me, and Becca too," Joanna said. "If ever someone comes and tries to force you into marriage, please tell me. I will make sure they are not permitted to do so."

Arya smiled. "I will do so. Luckily the two men that have proposed to me haven't pursued me too much since."

"You didn't want them to pursue you then?" Joanna queried.

"I did not want them to continue to pursue me too much. I can only deal with so much on my plate at one time. I only deemed one out of the two to actually be a decent man. The other showed a side of himself that was not to my liking."

"Well then, no-one can fault you for spurning him. As for the other, I am sure you know what is right for you. You've much good sense, Arya, and I'm sure you will make the riht decision in the end."

"Yes, I may see the knight here at court. He is young and would be up to seeking adventure here. In any case, I should return to the queen now if it is alright with you."

Joanna nodded.
"Of course. I would not wish to keep you from Morgan. Remember that you are always welcome to come visit me."

The bedmaid opened the door to admit Mari. Joanna was sitting with the girls as she read them a story. She stopepd and closed the book when her sister entered, though.
"Good day, Mari, how are you?"

"You told Steffon." Mari declared her tone hard. "You told Steffon, after you promised not to."

Joanna had forgotten about that so it took her a moment to realise what her sister was talking about.
"I had to," she said. "He was furious with you and refused to consider there was any reason why you would not marry Lord Oscar. I was worried about you and I wanted you safe. Telling Steffon the truth, though regrettable, was the only way for me to maek the position clear."
