THETIA KESTLE
I was with Lowis in the library of the castle, watching him draw and I had fun copying exactly what he was doing. He was really good at drawing, I was a bit jealous because I didn't really know how to do the things that Father and Mother asked me to do. However, the most surprising thing was that I was never reprimanded, even if I didn't meet their expectations, unlike Jane. When she was with her tutor, for example, and Father decided to join them with me behind him, the atmosphere was constantly heavy and everyone was shouting and arguing. Whenever that happened, I would slip away without anyone noticing and only come back when the tension had subsided.
- "Brother, I can't do what you're doing!" I said in a pained expression
- "It's normal, you're still little Theti

I loved learning with them, they had a strong culture about the world as well as books, which interested me the most. What I liked the most was that they took the time to explain everything to me in the smallest and most detailed way, even if it could take hours or even days. According to Angela, it was very rare for a child to start learning before he was six, if not seven, and I was only five. Keith constantly reminded me to cherish my intelligence and maturity because only a few children were able to process and assimilate theses or math methods so quickly. One day, I overheard my two tutors talking to my parents and telling them that I was a prodigy and that later on, many families would send them requests to

Sir Keith!"I shouted as I ran behind him.When he heard me, he stopped and turned around. Once at his level, I caught my breath because with my small legs, it was difficult for me to follow him, he was walking too fast for me. He asked me what I wanted because he was on his way to the library to prepare and organize my math lesson for this afternoon. Mathematics was not my strong point, but I understood pretty much everything we were discussing. As with Angela, it was clear that he was very passionate about what he was teaching. In addition to math, he taught me his native language and I loved it! Discovering new cultures and languages was very interesting. Sometimes I would say a few sentences during meals and my family would applaud me, and that would put me in

░ The Azure Castle, Ashton, Royaume Kestle, Edios░ Sunday, September 20, 1248░ 12:45 pmTHETIA KESTLEFor the past two days, I kept thinking about the conversation I had had with Keith. I respected his opinion on peasantry, but it frustrated me that he was so closed-minded and didn't even try to put himself in his people's shoes. When he said that most people in this world felt the same way, I wondered if my family was a part of it; I hoped with all my heart that they were not. I hesitated to ask them, I was afraid they would find me strange. But keeping my doubts to myself was not the way to get answers.- "Is it true that most people think that peasantry is an underclass, that we can control at our ease?"My whole family stopped eating and looked at me surprised by my question. At the same time, I don't think a five-year-old child would ask this kind of question, especially during a me

Still with my eyes half closed, they washed me, dressed me and took me to the dining room, where the good smell of warm bread filled the room. Only my father was sitting at the table, my mother and my siblings were probably sleeping. As I ate my lunch, I saw Angela walk in and sit at the table.-"Hello Angela! How are you?"I asked her with a grin on my face.- "Hello Thetia, I'm fine, although a little tired".- "By the way, why did the servants wake me up so early?"- "I have something to do with it"Angela admitted;"since your education is progressing very quickly and to congratulate you, I have decided

This time we will focus on the theme of betrayal, with the most famous work that anyone knows: "The Betrayal of the Ocean" by Milton Barr".- "I learned about this book at the castle; it seems to be Mother's favorite. But it's tough for a child to grasp the meaning, according to her".- "Your mother is right. Nonetheless, if I consider your academic abilities, which are superior to those of the other children, I am sure that you can comprehend the sense of the word betrayal. But first, I'd like to know: "With what you've learned from your lessons with Keith and myself, what concept, what sense can you give to the word betrayal?"- "I'll say it happens whe

She gave it to me but I did not feel like opening it directly, I wanted to wait for my family to be with me. The same maid took me to the dining room, where the other members were. As for Angela, she told me that she was going to take a rest.-"Dear Thetia Kestle. You are invited to Prince Harlan VII Vassethier's cake party on Friday, January 11 at 2:15 pm.

Not knowing what to do because of the stress, I started to play with my fingers, waiting for him to ask me a question to fill the silence. I didn't dare to look him in the eye, for fear of appearing rude. Suddenly, I heard him laughing softly.-"Don't be so nervous Miss, everything is going to be fine. I invited you to the cas

We had exchanged several letters in the meantime, and in one of them I learned that our study session had to be postponed to this month, because a new conflict had erupted in their kingdom, and the King had gone with his son to settle the problem. I thought that father would also have to leave, since he was the leader of the royal army of the King of Edios, but apparently the situation would not get out of hand and the King would be able to fight back against any attacks. Just before he left, Harlan VII had written me a nice letter, full of thoughtfulness and prose. Since he didn't know how long he would be gone, he tried to ask his father if he could visit me in Ashton once. However, the King refused his request, as he had no idea how future eve
