very productive day! i'd love that boots spell ;) though i do wonder about how to know one will come out somewhere safe, and precisely how long a step is, and getting that exact angle right on the first step, as it were. the carpet bag is vastly handy as well :D
thank you for "permanency!" word of the day for me! i love it, and it's not often i get new words <3
couple things caught my eye: Liavan fixed her gaze on a window in the Bishop's Residence that appeared to be just above her mother's head and pointed out, "Technically, as you and father are obliged to support me and all my sisters until we marry or take up a trade or profession, I have lessened your burdens. Also, father lent me the money to set up this stall and I paid him back some time ago - perhaps you should have a conversation with him before trying to take matters up with me in public? needs the closing ' " '
"Of course, madam. Travel safely." The town reeve and Liavan watched her go until she turned down the street that would take her to Liavan's family's house. The town reeve turned to Liavan and asked, "Do you wish to take issue with the lady-." i think this should either be ending with a question mark or a "--" cut off instead of a -. ?
Mirran showed her mother's guest into a room opened straight into the entrance hall, merely necessitating a left turn after Liavan came in through the front door. i wonder if it wouldn't be "into a room opening straight" or "into a room that opened straight" or "which opened straight"
"I'll just let my mother know that you're here, said Mirran brightly. "Please, take a seat and make yourself comfortable." missing a closing ' " ' after here,
Liavan considered the chairs, decided which one Withemistress Penden was likely to sit in as the hostess, and picked on that would put her on that lady's right, but not beside her. the 2nd 'on' seems to be trying to be 'one'
really enjoying this series! but hoping the last installment wont be the last of the characters!
no subject
