Tower
In reply to Hannatti (msg # 152):
"Lady Hannatti, for yes I know of your elevation, You may call me Lorraine.
I think you have earned that.
After the plague,there were scarcely enough peasants to work the land, and the barony was to lie falliw unless we made an aliance by marriage.
The baron was already afianced to his captain if the guards and did not find Baron Pequenaud to his liking, although I am sure Pequenaud would have accepted him.
I was willing,for the sake of the people and the land, so my brother relinquished his title and went north to seek his fortune.
The match was not as successful as I would have preferred,and my husband was cruel to those beneath himin a way that I could not bear. I endeavored to correct that wrong,which has lead to my confinement in this tower, which incidentally corresponds to my time of confinement in the other sense. I could well do with company."
