"Lady Viviane, she is ruler of Ghost Hill in her own right. You'll meet her soon, I expect. She's here with me now."

"Lady Viviane, of course, I met her at a while ago, we were unfortunate to have a small disagreement, but we did not really talk. She seems like a very... opinionated woman." she said, smiling politely,
Marq however let out a chuckle, "That's not what you said the oth- Ow!" he exclaimed again when he recieved an elbow to the stomach.
"For a knight you complain about pain a lot." she said to him, but went back to smiling at the Toland knight.

Triston laughed at Marq's discomfort.
"Mother has lots of opinions, yes. It comes from being the firstborn and the highest in rank, especially above her brothers. She has had to make her voice heard all her life and it comes naturally to her now. Her insitincsts are good, and she does know how to listen, though she listens to some people more than others. Once she knows you, she will listen to you too, because she could not fail to like you," he said with a smile and a short bow. "It can't have been easy for her growing up with so many brothers, and my Uncle Uthor always resented that Mother was born first."

"I don't see why he should resent it, though perhaps most younger siblings do. I am not sure if Trebor resents us... Maybe he does, seeing as we shall control Godsgrace and he will not." she pondered, "I am sure your mother and I shall get along very well in time, and if not we can at least be civil." she commented nodding, "I sometimes I think I was blessed for not having many brothers and sisters,"

"Mayhaos. I'm fond of most all my famly, but there are an awful lot of us and Ghost Hill can be crowded. That's why it's nice to be here at Sunspear. There's lots of people here too, but they aren't my kin," Triston said, grinning. "It makes all the difference. You said 'we', Lady Myranda? But you are the lady, I know. Does that mean you intend to have your brother rule with you?"

"In a manner." she said smiling, "It will probably just be me, Marq has no head for anything political, but half a person cannot expect to rule. When we inevitably both get married it will become more complicated..."

"Oh, no doubt. You'll have to make sure your choose partners who understand the bond between you both," he said. "Do you know of any other male and female twins here in Dorne who might be up to the challenge?"

"No," she admitted, "But I must do my duty, Marq doesn't have to marry unless it is very opportunitic. I couldn't marry someone who got between us." she said and linked arms with Marq to prove it. Marq in turn kissed the top of her head and grinned at Toland.
"If only all siblings were like us? No deputes about who gets what, just sharing everything."
"It would be a very odd world if everyone were like us." She looked at Toland, "We are a little, strange, are we not?"

"A little, but I find it quite charming. I've never had that sort of relationship with Eleyna, nor with my brothers or coisns either. But I suppose twins are different. You have something that ordinary sinblings lack, is that right?"

Myranda laughed this time, softer and quieter than her brother, "We like to think so, perhaps it is not twins at all and Marq and I really are just odd. Perhaps our mother dying when we were so young made us rely on one another more... but it matters not now. Have you ever been to Godsgrace?"

"No, never," said Triston. "There has never been the need nor have I ever been invited, and why should I be? Mother and Father have been, and Eleyna, but I am just a younger son. Though I'd gladly come if invited."
He winked at her.

Myranda laughed softly again at the wink, but it wasn't laughing at him, more laughing with. Marq however glared at the other knight and increased the strength of their linked arms, causing Myranda to roll her eyes at him before smiling once again at Toland.
"Forgive him, we're a bit out of unison at the moment, we've spent less time together here than in all of our lives. You are welcome to visit us any time, we're joined by marriage after all, and you have a nephew who is half Allyrion, so there we are bound by blood also."

"Indeed. I will make time to visit, then, at a time that is convennient to yourselves," Triston replied, careful to make sure he didn't exclude Marq. "I could bring my nephew too, if it please you?"

"That would be most pleasant, thank you, I think it is about time we saw him." she said, smiling and nodding at him, "It's a shame Godsgrace is so out of the way, or I would suggest you could come on the way back from the Tourney, but it is quite a trek then."

"It is, yes, but we can be flexible. I will come whenever you would like me to come," Triston explained. "And I know my mother will be pleased to let Edric visit his kin as well, so she'll surely agree to have me fetch him from Ghost Hill. Though I suppose Eleyna ought to be consulted as well, the boy is hers, after all. But I don't think she'll mind."
