able-bodied females of the noble town of Ailra to

elves, dragons, dwarves, and other such nuisances An

elite group shall be formed at the conference to rid

the continent of Ruocal of these bothersome creatures

henceforth. This extreme honor shall be bestowed upon

select few. Thursday the Twenty-first of November,

It was the first anyone had heard of it. Certainly

Lord Dermail couldn’t have been upset so easily by a

few wandering dragons… And yet the notice was posted

upon every door in the town. As she re-read the notice

she played with the ringlets falling from her auburn

hair, pulled on her lightest slippers, and hustled out

of the house as fast as her dress and petticoats would

allow. She had to talk to the others.

"So it is decided then, ladies?" the woman with long,

violet hair, pulled into a careful and simple up-do,

asked with a gleam in her dark eyes.

"Yes," another said, blue eyes glinting in the soft

light. "We will be the ones to go." Honey-colored

ringlets falling from an intricate bun were brushed

aside.

"Finally out of these restraining things," one more

said. Extreme length in hair so blonde it was most

nearly white. She shuffled her petticoats

uncomfortably.

"If we are chosen." Eyes turned to one of the oldest

women. First, the only one of the six who was allowed

to wear her hair down as she pleased; it came with

having a previous marriage and becoming a widow at

such a young age. The twisting design of her

dirty-blonde hair was certainly unusual, simple yet

exciting.

"And why has he asked for only women?" The other elder

to the women, not yet married; engaged as were the

rest of them. Violet hair almost as long as her

sister’s, although the latter was the younger of the

two, with eyes to match.

"And what about our men…" the last commented. "We are

all to be married in a matter of months… Granted none

of us wish it in the least, but how are we to deal

with that?" Six heads fell forward and ringlets sprung

back as the women thought.

"We will deal with them when the time comes," the

widow said. With a sad smile, "At least it’s not your

second time to be married." Crystalline droplets

formed in her eyes as a clock struck ten. "Ladies, we

must return home. Tomorrow we may just free ourselves

from these confining prisons we call lives."
