    Summary

    Morrigan knows how to survive. She’s not so good at living. She climbs into the river herself and feels the cool water rush around her legs, and she waits, breathes deep, slow, breaths. She thinks of the Warden and of Leliana and of her mother; even if she doesn’t want to, her mother is always on her mind these days. When she dresses, when she steals food. When she catches her reflection in still water. She picks up a stone and drops it right through her throat, sending the image rippling away.

    It is a pair of socks that changes things between them.

    Summary

    Kate reaches for her reticule, withdrawing a small leather-bound notebook. "I have compiled a list of my own"

    “A list of gentlemen?” Lady Danbury's voice climbs an octave

    “Of requirements. For a husband, that is”.

    “And what, pray, are the 'requirements' you seek in this hypothetical husband?”

    Kate looks at the notebook in her hands.

    “Tolerable. Dutiful. Decent manners. Steady enough income to support a small household. No gambling debts or illegitimate children. Not a brute in private. And ideally,” she says, lifting her eyes to meet Lady Danbury’s, “he must have the ability to hold a conversation without being a complete bore”. She finishes. At Lady Danbury’s silence, Kate shifts once more in her seat. Then adds: “That last part is not so much a requirement, but a preference.”

    _____________________________

    When The Sheffields withdraw their offer to provide Edwina’s dowry, Kate realizes she has no other option but to enter the marriage mart. For purely practical reasons.
