Your father sent a note over two weeks ago, and the aspect running the place forgot to send it up. Basically, we have apparently, by public opinion, moved up the succession line. How far, I don't know, but Dragon's Roost is nearly as large as the capital. I sent the messenger over an hour or so ago, so it should be back pretty soon. I am hoping to nip this in the bud, I have enough problems already without adding Emperor to the list."<br/><br/>He set his daughter back down, and gave his mate a hug back, before sliding the population book back over to her. "I have already stopped the expansion of the valley, which is just as well, as the land recently reclaimed from the surrounding cliffs is less than the standard of the surrounding lands, nevermind that it is still quite above the normal. The mages have finally unmade the activation runes of the circle behind the second fortress line, so they are letting the normal people in to view it. I have a meeting with the head master of the local tower about that later, though he knows it is subject to change, as your father has precedence."
