When he heard that devastating floods hit his village in northern Afghanistan last week, farmer Abdul Ghani rushed home from neighboring Kunduz province where he was visiting relatives. When he got home, he found out that his wife and three children had perished in the deluge. Two of his sons survived but another son, who is 11, is still missing. “I couldn’t even find the road to my village,” he said, describing how he turned back and went another way to reach his district of Nahrin in Baghlan province. Across Baghlan, others like Ghani and survivors of the disaster were still searching for their missing loved ones and burying their dead on Monday. “Roads, villages and lands were all washed away,” Ghani said. His wife, his 7-year-old and 9-year-old daughters and a 4-year-old son died. “My life has turned into a disaster,” he said, speaking to The Associated Press over the phone. The U.N. food agency estimates that the unusually heavy seasonal rains in Afghanistan left more than 300 people dead and thousands of houses destroyed, most of them in Baghlan, which bore the brunt of floodings on Friday.

[ necklace ] sender helps receiver with the clasp of their anklet from behind - styxxrook did i change this from necklace to anklet on purpose BET YO BUTT I DID

@myhiraeth

Suffice to say it had been a chaotic day and half.

The palace in a flurry of preparations, servants bustling to and fro with all sorts of items and food entering and leaving. It was the ever so 'graciously' cutting princess of didymos that informed her of what was going on. A banquet was being held by her father with a variety of princesses in attendance for Styxx's choosing of a bride. She didn't know why it felt as though iron had been stabbed through her chest at the idea or at Ryssa's snide gloating remark 'oh? didn't he tell you? i thought you were both close?'

For once she couldn't argue it.

She thought they were and yet he hadn't mentioned it. Not once. Thankfully it was only an hour later that Styxx returned ( with more flowers for her, now her room almost resembled a garden; a very intentional aspect, he remarked once, so she wouldn't feel terribly homesick ) and spoke with her about it.

' It will be nice to have a friendly face with me tomorrow night. ' 'Oh? Is Stephanos attending as well? ' 'Well...yes, but that was not who I meant.' His brow furrowed, eyes softening as he looked her and she felt her breath catch briefly before she managed out a reply in return. 'I did not think I was invited to attend. I am only a temporary guest and- ' 'Of course, you are invited.' She saw one of his rare scowls. 'Any banquet or gathering thrown in this palace you are invited.'

And so the race to ready for the event of princesses parading for Styxx had been set in motion. He had graciously told her to buy whatever it was she wanted to ready for it and to not worry about the cost. That he looked forward to seeing her there.

It had taken till late in the evening to find something suitable though she and her handmaidens had debated for hours about whether to dress in Persian fashion or as Grecian. It was Sareh that finally settled the argument between them, who had already felt more as sisters than handmaids to her, that perhaps it was better to dress in the Greek fashion to honor their gracious hosts. Nahrin had agreed in the end with the added remark of not drawing too much attention to them since relations with Persia were not precisely friendly either. It wouldn't do to offend any other is in attendance with the implication that Didymos was aligned with Perisa in case of conflict later.

How did what I wear to a banquet transform into politics? She asked Farsiya only laughed shaking her head. Because you were invited by the Crown Prince who continues to be incredibly vastly generous.

And he was. Terribly so.

Generous in so many rare and unseeming ways that she knew and yet found unexpected. He was every bit of the man she had known on the ship and upon disembarking he had only become more so with her even though she saw the stern edge now and again that explained his excellence at commanding the stygian omada.

Still he always managed to surprise her as he did now.

Two hours before the banquet was set to begin he was knocking at the door as the girls rushed to dress her in something modest as she had just stepped out from the bath. Hair was rushed to be dried by Nahrin while he waited as she was dressed in a plain peplos to receive him while she worried something had gone wrong. It was hours before the banquet- what did he need to see her for? With hair still damp, cheeks flushed from the bath and a hastily pinned dress she stepped out to see him there with a beautiful box.

And an even more beautiful smile when he saw her.

He apologized for the intrusion and explained that he'd be busy and would have to meet her at the banquet, but wanted to give her something for tonight. Surprised she approached and accepted the offered box to find a familiar anklet. Familiar in that she had set it down at market yesterday because of the cost and the conversation that followed. Tali, Nahrin's little sister, had argued with her that the prince had said she could get anything she wanted. She in turn lightly tapped her nose and explained that just because 'one could doesn't mean one should' and they had went on to the next stall after that.

"How did you-"

His blue eyes shimmered as he spoke. "Sometimes little ones are better at following direction than adults it would seem."

"Tali." She sighed shaking her head.

" She adores you." He said warmly. " She found me and asked if I meant what I said. I told her what I told you- I honor my word. So we went to get it. Its only right that you have something almost as lovely as you to wear tonight. My sister has driven the treasury insane this last week demanding to see what is available to her."

A laugh escaped as she imagined Ryssa ripping apart the poor treasurers and jewelers for something. "May the gods have mercy and favor on those poor men then."

"Will you grant me a favor?" The question he posed was spoken tentatively that again she wondered what it is he could ask that was so great that he'd be worried she'd say no?

And in spite of that fear she immediately answered. "Of course. "

"If it wouldn't offend you- could this soldier be worthy of helping you with this?" His head tilted to the box in her hands and she felt the heat creep into every aspect of her frame. He wanted to help her put on the anklet? Dark lashes fluttered briefly at the odd and surprising request but she couldn't help but answer softly 'yes' then glance towards a chair with a slight gesture as she moved to sit. The box returned to him as she sat and extended her left foot slightly, heart now in her throat thrumming wildly as he knelt and gently cupped her heel as he worked the clasp open then closed around her ankle. She couldn't help but notice how he lingered, how his fingers traced the curve of her ankle before gently setting her foot down.

" Thank you." She managed out smiling shyly and ever so glad that she had agreed with Sareh on the style of dress. The last thing she ever wanted was to cause more trouble to Styxx or his kingdom. And at least, she resigned to herself, that she could take that anklet with her home and remember the soft gentle touch that would haunt her the rest of her days without him.

HC: v; ancient (rookheeya) @myhiraeth

Farsiya- twenty-four years old, is the daughter to a vendor at a port that had gotten ransacked by Greeks in Persia. She's familiar with who the Khademi family is (Kian, specifically) as her father has dealt with them before. She steps up second at the offer of employment.

Sareh- eighteen years old, big sister to Talina. Sareh is the first to step up at Styxx's offer of employment to the girls and agrees if he's willing to accept the condition that her sister comes with her. Sareh is completely aware of the advantages of serving a noble family and the security it offers for her future and her sister's.

Nahrin- sixteen years old, is the last to step up and is far more hesitant to do so but she knows that this is an invaluable opportunity. Her final push to step forward is because she bonded with Sareh and felt safer going with her than trying out her own mettle in finding work in Greece.

Talina 'Tali' - little sister to Sareh, four years old. Loves apples and her fabric doll. Always glued to her sister's leg or hip. Initially she's very skittish, but quickly relaxes amongst the women attending to Rookheeya and absolutely adores all of them and Styxx.
