Politics.
Myrcella hated it. Yet there was no way to avoid it. Ever since she learned of her betrothal to Richard Henry the Eighth , she had looked for any ways upon which that she could get out of it without causing a war. Richard's Father apparently loved war and his armies were vast. Although her late Father's armies were good in their own right, without his leadership they could crumble in defeat. And then where would that leave her? Miserable in knowing that she was the cause of so much preventable death. The guilt would be too much.
So she had to find some other way.
Myrcella sat at a table in one of the libraries, a stack of books nearby while one lay open in front of her. A cup of tea cooled beide her, as well as a plate of cookies. Only half of one had been eaten so far as she had only been in the library for about twenty minutes.
"This would be so much easier if my Father was alive." Myrcella spoke to herself. Sometimes during her studies she found that to be helpful. Yet it brought up another thought. What if her Father was murdered? What if he was killed on purpose so that there'd be little chance of not joining the two noble houses from different countries together? That was certainly possible. Yet there was too much that wasn't known in order for that to be a possibility.
