Ha! You think? I wonder if Saeryn would even have said that if he were present...

I know... And even after Athanar had promised to leave everything to Saeryn's child when the time comes (before there was any hope of Eodwine coming back to life)... if king Eomer was willing, that is.

Thus are the righteous rewarded, with scorn and scheming... If I were not a kind of feminist myself in RL, I'd say something about the mind of a woman here...

But storywise, I love these stubborn characters. What drama would there be if everyone was considerate, good-hearted, reasonable and honourable?

There is definitely something to be said about the mind of a woman. lol.

I like what this is insinuating about Saeryn's character...

As I've told Elempi, to be honest, I'm really disliking Saeryn right now. She's just not being very likeable. And poor Eodwine, come back sick and weak and all...doesn't get a moment's rest. I had no idea she'd make such a contentious wife. "Better to sleep on a corner on a roof than to share a house with a quarrelsome wife." I don't know what proverb that is, but it's there. *sigh*

I have been reading the Game of Thrones lately and Saeryn surely feels a bit like Cersei Lannister... well not that bad, but something near enough to provoke the comparison.

But I do wonder if she was like that before? Interesting "psycho-dynamics" here how seeing Eodwine makes her that hysteric... well, you know some pregnant women can be a bit moody...
