#( queen annaliese & lord pieter )

Annaliese had gotten into one of her unprompted speeches, rambling about to poor Lord Pieter about all of her ideas and options for moving forward. His words had interrupted her mid-speech. "Forgive me, Lord Pieter, I'm sure we are all restlessly rambling either in our thoughts or with our words today," she held her hand to her chest as she took in a deep breath.

He was waiting to be called to the meeting where everyone would discuss and deliberate over who or what was behind these attacks. He wasn't sure but it was obviously an enemy or ally who wanted to turn enemy against the French. Or maybe not - maybe it could be a case where they were trying to attack another country.

Either way, there were people injured and he found himself not looking forward to reliving the experience. Maybe it was him lost in thought or just not aware of his surroundings but he found himself jumping slightly as a voice broke through his thought process. "Right, yes, I'm sorry," he said with a breath, "you were saying something?"
