What must be done

  • Often times the things that must be done by ones self are the most filth ridden. 


    Take this... Matron my fool son has been living with.  Had he not told me about her, I may never have known she even existed!  Of course, he couldnt be trusted to do what he had to in order to ensure this family remains on the correct path. 


    Honestly, I realize his fathers death was hard on him, it was hard on all of us.  Here I was,left with the weight of... Of having to make choices!  How dare that man run off to war and die on me!  It was bad enough he left me, now my own son is making terrible choices as well. 


    I couldnt stand for it any longer. 


    I could care less that he claims to be in love with her.  A passing fancy from time to time, or a ripe piece of flesh on the side is one thing, but to have the audacity to ask for my mothers ring... He was going to propose marriage to this woman!  This... FILTH!


    That was the last straw!  The camels back was broken!


    I did what any mother would, I lied to that woman as very well she deserved and broke apart their relationship.  Nina, my assistant thought it was terribly harsh, that it was uncalled for.  Well, Nina, how do you like your new role as fertalizer for the garden?  It is quite difficult to object to my ways when a letter opener is jammed into your fel damned throat, now isnt it! 


    And so I have to place my words into the hands ot Ju'eliet.  I cannot say that I even like her.  She is a waif, empty headed fool of a girl, but her family is of proper standing, and her dowry was pathetically low considering the circumstances.  She will bear beautiful children for my Aidyn.  No doubt that is about all she will be able to offer a man of his standing.  A warm bed to return to, a conquest that will bear fruit. 


    Its good enough for me.


    I should contact his commanding officer and ensure he is sent home soon.  Ill not have another man run out on me with death as his pitiful excuse.
