I'm Stepping Down From The Throne/Dorampo

“It seems like today had been on your favor again, Elinor,” Louis’ minion said as he approached her as she was walking down the hallway,“Markus, great arguments out there. It was an interesting debate,” She said with a small smile,“I can see that royal education is on another level compared to us. You’re a decent politician,” He admitted,“Thank you very much, I simply did my best,” Elinor responded as she kept walking and trying to hide her amusement.Earlier they had a debate, something that he had probably requested privately from the professor. It seemed like he wanted to show her that she wasn’t up to their standards or something like that. The man didn’t seem to learn his lessons, which proved to her that he would be a useless pawn to use. He would be more problematic than helpful.“Although I may be a bit undereducated compared to a previous royal princess. Lord Louis is a whole different thing. I’m pretty sure that he would make a worthy opponent,” He added.She ignored the “

Azeph kept flipping thepugh the samples as if nothing happened. But the other three students who were doing their best to ignore her presence froze and looked at her.Did people expect her to break down in tears every time they mentioned Nick?“ He would've hated it,” she said with a small smile.“ The color or the ball?” Azeph asked“ Both, he used to say that white isn’t a color,” she answered, “ The royal aides had a hard time cornering him into arranging events like this. They often came to Louis and I for help. Which is why I know quite a bit about preparing things like this.”“When you talk like this, he sounds like an ordinary person, like all of us,” Stella finally said and Elinor smiled.“ That’s because he was. Although he would’ve made a perfect ruler,” She added Looking up she found everyone’s attention on her. This happened every time she talked about Nick. The love of his people was apparent theough their eyes ecery time someone talked about him. Even this ball theme, it

"You think?" Elinor asked raising one eyebrow at Stella. "Yes, I think," Repeated confidently, "They might tell you something you don't know," She added and Elinor sighed. "I will. Of course, I will hear them out, " Elinor said, "But they have to realize how to do this if they want to be heard out." She added, "I know they overstepped. No matter their situation, as nobles they should know better than to act rashly. But I think they probably realize that by now," She said, "It's unlike you to stand by someone like this. Is it personal?" Elinor asked, "I wonder..." She said, "I guess I could relate to what was happening and thought I would give helping them a shot since the one who can do that is my new acquaintance," Elinor laughed and Stella smiled, "By the way how are things proceeding?" She asked her "I think we will be done ahead of schedule with the new help we got." She told her. "After ordering everything we need today, all we need to do is check the tableware and the me

"Morning." Will greeted Azeph from behind as he stood at the top of the hill leading to the academy."what are you looking at?"Azeph looked at his friend who was standing there flushed and energetic despite the morning chill. He had clearly been practicing with his horse since tge early hours of the day.Will’s good mood was always more apparent after spending time with the horses."Nothing in particular, I was just watching the morning crowd" he responded breezily.“So many people taking the same path toward the same destination, yet in the end, none of them really share the same reasons."Does that mean that the path he’s taking right now could end in a different direction than the one he wants it to?He knew that was true. Which is why he had been thinking about it for a while now"Every person is shaped with what they experienced in life, so it's only natural that they don't take the same decisions even if they share the same road,” Will said eying the students heading into the a

Elin stood there looking at the row of samples before her.“ did we finish ordering everything we need?” Noah asked her as he came by her side to check on her.“Yes, I think we did. Thanks for your help, I wouldn’t’ have been able to do it without you,” she told him.“It’s okay. I wish you would’ve told me earlier, I would’ve helped with more than flower arrangements and color matching,” he told her gently.“ I know, it’s just that this place was getting a bit too crowded for you around here. This is the only time I could find when there are no people around,”Noah’s tendency to avoid crowds was due to his affinity to how others feel and think. She had no logical explanation to what Noah was capable of, but it seemed like he was able to read people’s hearts and understand how they feel. Both from close distances and upon close contact.He rarely ever touches people without knowing them first and getting a feel of their minds. Because sometimes, people’s inner thought had the ability to

"I'm not going to become the queen," Elinor told Stella who's eyes widened in shock,"Do you mean that it has already been decided?" She asked, "Louis is going to be the successor?""No, the king hasn't made his decision yet," Elinor said"Then why do you think that?""I don't think, I know," Elinor told her, "The path I decided to take from now on is tricky. I will be making some dangerous decisions and probably a lot of sacrifices that will be costing me more than my position. Which is why I'm not going to help you personaly. I will have a trusted person request your admission to the class in case I have to go down. Then you won't have to go down with me. So If you're agreeing to this because I might become the queen one day, you should forget about it. I want you to be my companion and help me with my mission as long as I'm here. It won't be something dangerous, but you will have to stay on guard and be smart all the time because our opponent is that smart and cunning. If you agree

Elinor watched from afar as Daisy blushed at something Alan said making her spill a bit of her te on the table.Alan being the gentleman that he was, wiped it up with a napkin checking her hand for a possible burn. He didn’t let go of that hand for a while after that.“Are you satisfied now?” Azeph asked as he stood beside her not bothering to peek behind the bushes. He simply stood there eying her with amusement as if he was having too much fun watching her antics.“Of course, now he owes me a favour now. And he’s going to want to repay me for it,” she told him, "As do I. I had to go through the whole morning with Alan watching me with a strange look because I invited him to tea. We were both so relieved when he realized that you will be joining us too," "That was a bit funny to watch. I will make sure yo repay your kindness," She told him with a bright smile. "I will make sure you do too," Azeph added. "Is it okay for us not to return?" Azeph asked "They're in their own little wo

There was something about fast paced gtoup debates, and it was that you could miss quite a lot of important key if you don't keep a close look. Elinor watched as students engaged in debates talking about all kind of things and arguing their views. It was like national debate day at school and it felt like if she greeted someone they would throw her an argument about the right way to say a greeting. So she decided to sit back and observe what was going on before her since it was optional for her to participate since she was new and didn’t have to take the special class exam.Elinor disliked debates, they weren't her favorite thing because they took a lot of energy and required her to speak more than she liked to. But she didn’t hate the ambiance, it seemed like a festival where everyone was socialising and speaking to each other heatedly.Before lunch time, Elinor retreated making her way to the greenhouse.Noah was there watering the roses and Alan was drinking tea there peacefully.

"There needs to be an investigation as soon as possible," The letter read Elinor sighed, maybe she could pass through the provinces where the problem is on her way home. But she knew that wouldn't be enough. There was only one week in winter break, she was going to need time to get there because she has to travel in desguise. There was also a need to make sure that they wouldn't realize that she was going there to investigate in the first place. Just when she though that she was going to get some time back home with her mother. She had been worried about her because she didn't sound so well in her last few letters. She was talking about the same thing over and over again as if she was avoiding talking about what was really going on. With this investigation turning more serious than she thought it would be, she was growing worried that her father was involved in all this and that it was the reason why her mother sounded off in her letters. It turned out that the problem was smuggl

They were driving for quite a while when something cut through the silence, it was a male voice that sounded extremely familiar to Elinor, but still it was quite unsettling to hear it behind her as it spoke."Where are we going by the way?" said a voice from behind them starteling them,"Oh my god!" Elinor exclained stopping the car and Stella pulled a gun out of nowhere and pointed it at the backseat,"Woah!" Said the very familiar male voice, "That's one dangerous thing you have there," "Will?!" Elinor exclaimed and the goofy man grinned at her through the dimm light."What are you doing here?!" Elinor asked surprised to see her gooffy new friend grining at her from the backseat of the car,"I want to answer you but your scary friend is scarrier than usual and she's holding a dangerous weapon to my face," He said holding his hands up in surrender.Elinor looked at Stella who was raising an eyebrow at Will before she pulled back the gun,"Who's well rounded now," Elin asked"We live
