Bantyr and Nuor in 522

Description

It was in autumn 522, fourteen years ago. First sunny afternoon after several rainy days. Air was cold and sharp. They enjoyed refreshments and sweets in their host’s garden. She told him about her trip to harvest fest on the other side and they fell drop to a law prohibiting pledging reverence and submission to any of Gods. As if by accident she rolled her sleeve showing a ring. The ring of this special kind.

He grabbed her neck. This sweet sixteen. He shook her. Petit, fragile body. He pushed her. The girl that has been never train to fight. He shouted like a lunatic. On his own daughter.

“Why did you do that? Asking The Lord of Light for help wouldn’t be enough? Did you have to make a homage? Why didn’t you get pregnant or did other stupid thing that wouldn’t affect our Getah foundations? Something that I, your ruler till yesterday, could handle!!”

She was so terrified, that she said nothing. She had been already reminded that Getah who pledged submission to one of The Gods should leave. No excuses, no exception. She got up and without a word went to her room, changed dress for a horse-riding garment and immediately left the country. Unhappy like never before.

Certainly some servants and guards had to hear his outrage. They reacted how they should. Nobody bothered him as long untill he calmed down. Then his guards’ commander told him “Nuor passed a frontier”. He was devastated.

Of course it was beyond argument that Nuor have to leave Vapama, but he should have hugged her, given her money and assured of his love. She deserved apology and it was high probably that she would need help to settle in new homeland. Commander comforted his lord that two people followed Nuor, so he would knew what happen.

Although any competent agent could take care of her, Bantyr should express remorse in person, restore his daughter dignity and make an opportunity for both of them to deal with feelings. In a few months after, he took his servants random horse (leaving them his skittish, giant Kabanos), stripped almost all expensive gems out of his lute and entered Adverna under a name Diurano.

What happened next you will learn if you ask me to write a story. Nowadays Nuor’s and Bantyr’s relationship is complicated, but no doubt they love each other. So when she heard that recently Count Mishan chased Heretic and put his lute as a prize in a competition, she went to win it back.
