    Private Tales As the Skies Clear

    Noelani listened with all the open mindedness she was known for amongst her people. She did not interrupt or show any of the myriad of emotions that rose to the surface throughout his tale. Sadness for his loss not only of his time, but of his people; curiosity over the questions left unanswered...

    Private Tales I of the Storm

    Noelani's eyes rolled upwards and she mouthed a quiet prayer to the All Mother to ask for help to bolster her patience. The pirate seemed to have a particular talent for wearing on every nerve the Princess had. She would have loved to have seen how her sisters dealt with her unlikely companion...

    Lani's smile faded as she noted the sadness that crept over her guest. She almost regretted her question but her curiosity ate at her from the inside, and Medja had been quite clear she had no intentions of spelling secrets that were not hers. The Princess gently swirled the water with her feet...

    The Princess smiled as she watched her guest dive into the waters of the pools. She had been truthful in that these pools were not spiritual in anyway to her people, but they had a knack for becoming the first place many outsiders truly begun to understand the beauty of their island and way of...

    Noelani's smile softened at his compliment. Very often she found it easy to laugh them off from people and dodge them where she could. Her mother and father both had taught her the importance of keeping her ego in check given the status she had and the opportunities it afforded that others did...

    "No," Noelani smiled at his question about the trials, her eyes sparkling with amusement though not unkindly. "They are just pools, I thought you might want to bathe." With a wave of her hand the waters of the pool she had been stood in stilled and she stepped onto the surface like one would...

    From the delighted expression on her face it seemed as though his reaction was the one she had been hoping for and that it had caused no insult. "And I cannot imagine how anyone can live in the sands," Noelani countered, still swinging back and forth from the branch whilst Len collected...

    "I'm not tired," the small child yawned as Lani carried her up the steps, smoothed by the passage of time, to the palace where her sister waited to collect the tiny terror. It had been impossible to pry her from Skull-Hammers side for most of the evening, only managing it when the girl had...

    Lani ran a hand through her hair to ensure all of the water was out of it least it frizz and gave the sigh of a long suffering relative. Giggling still came from beneath the table as she sat herself on one of the chairs this time, rather than the rocks behind Skull Hammers head. She nodded to...

    "Me no swared!" The younger Mchawii princess proclaimed after looking at the hammer which was more than likely taller than she was. She puffed herself up and, like all children her age unable to sit still for too long, she hopped off the ogres lap and fell into a surprisingly good imitation of a...

    Open Chronicles The Rain Dance

    The Princess had to clamber onto one of the rocks at Skull Hammers back in order to reach his head and hair, but she perched there as though she did it all the time. One of the men she had spoken to on their way up to the main party appeared with a basket of the delicate blooms and set it at...

    Open Chronicles The Rain Dance

    Lani's heart was full as her eyes swept from stranger, to old friend, to the budding new one. This was what the Rain Dance was about, what it honoured and remembered. With a radiant smile she nodded her head up the sand dunes. "Come, dancing and flower braids await," her niece gave a squeal of...

    Open Chronicles The Rain Dance

    It took all of Lani's abilities not to gape at her companion as his story unfurled. She had so many questions bubbling up inside of her that she knew were rude to ask of guests, especially guests who had only just set foot on her Island. It was a Spirit sent blessing that Medja and Ashuanar...

    Open Chronicles The Rain Dance

    Noelani watched with amusement as Medja politely excused herself then all but lept upon Ashuanar; seeing them together always brought a smile to her face - they reminded her of the love her grandparents had. Like two parts of a soul finally finding one another. Leaving them to their moment she...

    Open Chronicles The Rain Dance

    "Ashuanar!" Noelani rushed down the sands to greet her friend. The pair had had a rather interesting night out in Ragash the last time she had seen him which had ended in them becoming the firm friends of drunks who had agreed to keep one another's embarrassing secrets. Instead of stopping to...
