Mara walked through the halls that were her home. Lady Jessica was not far behind watching the 3 year old explore. Lady Jessica had a grin the entire time as she watched her young daughter.

However her young daughter was on a mission. Her young daughter was looking for her brother.

That was her mission until she saw Duncan Idaho.

She looked up to that man. Mara ran up to him as Duncan laughed and held her.

"Duncan!" She yelled as she smiled. Lady Jessica was farther back as she gave Duncan a nod to which Duncan gave her a smile. "My lady."

Duncan said as he put Mara down. "I swear you're getting bigger each time i see you." Duncan said as he poked Mara's arm teasingly. Mara smiled as she poked him back in his arm.

"Did you bring me something?" Mara asked knowing that he went on a mission and most definitely brought back something for her.

"So knowledgeable." Duncan murmured as he looked at her and pulled out a dagger. It was a beautiful dagger. Mara eyes were fixed with it.

It was too perfect. She knew it belonged to her. It was her birth right to own this dagger.
