Aelitia

The morning after Judge Gedridh's decision, Jacen scans through his usually meticulous calendar and notices an influx of "Red" tagged events that he usually jokingly calls "House Calls". They are one-on-one only meetings, usually reserved for his most prestigious clients. He recalls an interaction last night client's in-house counsel that already hinted at disapproval, subtly questioning how the Woolrey-Arnold Pharmaceutical case aligns with Jacen's established portfolio. The tone suggested more than a mere lack of comprehension; it signaled an unspoken disapproval. Now, with the surge in requests for personal meetings, Jacen senses that these encounters will not be the routine discussions of legal matters or happenings for him to help 'figure out'. Instead, they are likely to be covert interrogations and pressure sessions, as his elite clientele seeks to understand and influence his stance on the controversial case.
Contemplating the schedule before him, he starts to mull over how he will strategically defend his decision to take on the Woolrey-Arnold Pharmaceutical case. Subtly hinting at the broader implications of the espionage issue and emphasizing the importance of protecting his clients' interests in this burgeoning cyber world is possible his only change at crafting a delicate narrative that justifies his involvement in this suit. He cannot plainly state the possibility that the same espionage tactics resulting in the drug formulation leak may have touched upon the confidential matters of his high-profile clients without causing undue alarm. 
"****", Jacen mutters into his mug.

Her gaze fixed on the screen, her ears reactively pulling her face tight. The message's sender remained anonymous, yet the implication cut through the hurry of her office. Someone, somehow, had learned of her impending decision regarding the Woolrey-Arnold Pharmaceutical case—a decision not yet publicized, known only to those within her office and the main clerk of the Hiercourt.
Rather than instilling fear, the mysterious message fueled an unexpected resolve within Tamar. The intrusion into her decision-making process hardened her determination to uphold the law without succumbing to veiled threats. 
With a measured breath, Tamar set her phone aside and turned her attention back to the documents sprawled across her desk. The weight of her responsibility as a judge in the Practice of the Prince's Laws pressed upon her, and the oath she had taken resonated in her thoughts as she sealed the document in the traditional purple ink.

Courtship of the Kings
Seven winters passed since the vanquishing of the Berganisk tribes, and Queen Tamar, her name echoing through the winds like a distant thunderstorm, ruled with sagacity and might.
In those days of yore, three royal suitors sought the hand of Queen Tamar, drawn by the luster of her realm. The first, Tonn, bore a regal countenance, yet his gaze was veiled by vanity and nearsightedness. The second, Olev, was piously devoted, but his reverence for the divine eclipsed the needs of his folk. The third, Jumal, harbored ambitions as fierce as the northern winds, heedless of the welfare of his subjects.
With grandiosity befitting their stations, the three kings approached Queen Tamar, each seeking favor. Yet, the queen, with discerning eyes akin to the falcon's gaze, perceived the flaws that tainted the brilliance of each.
To Tonn, the vain, she spoke words as sharp as the blade at her side. "A king's sight must not be clouded by his own reflection. Beauty is fleeting, but the legacy of a benevolent ruler endures like the northern lights."
Olev, the pious, found himself admonished by Tamar's unwavering gaze. "A king's devotion must extend to the realm he governs, not confined to the heavens alone. Your people crave sustenance and justice, not just the solace of prayers."
Jumal, the ambitious, faced Tamar's unyielding stare. "Power, if grasped without wisdom and compassion, is but a weapon of tyrants. A king should be a shepherd, not a wolf amidst his flock."
Enraged by these lessons in humility, service to the folk, and equality, each king, in the manner of the berserkers of old, drew his weapon. Tonn unsheathed his sword, Olev gripped a mace, and Jumal brandished a spear. They struck at Tamar, blinded by wounded pride and unbridled ambition.
Yet, Tamar, like a Valkyrie in the dance of battle, moved with the grace of the northern winds, deflecting their blows with a skill forged in the crucible of conflict. She spared their lives but claimed their crowns, a symbol of the humility and service they failed to grasp.
The tale of the thwarted courtship and the dethroned kings spread like the whispering breeze through the ancient fjords. The subjects of each realm began to see Tamar not as a conqueror but as a liberator and rightful queen. The realm expanded, and peace descended like the gentle caress of snow upon an ever-expanding dominion.
Thus, the Courtship of the Kings became a chapter in the saga of Tamar, the queen whose wisdom, humility, and martial prowess united realms and brought prosperity to the lands beneath her just and compassionate rule. The people hailed her not merely as a warrior queen but as a sovereign whose heart beat in harmony with the well-being of her folk.

In the post-toddler bedtime calm of her home, Judge Esq. Tamar Gedridh reclined in her living room, ensconced in pillows and the glow of a television playing the latest episode of the docuseries Covington. The credits roll and the quietly intense credit music was joined by the shrill ring of her business phone. She hesitated, as she would not commonly get phone calls at this hour. She then reached for the device, glancing at the display to find an unknown number glaring back at her.
With a wary squint, she allowed the voicemail to answer. As he unknown caller spoke, a text readout simultaneously unfolded on the screen, each word tightening the already wary squint. 
"Judge Esquire Gedridh, we are happy you have been assigned to the CTGM case. Dismiss it. The reasons will reveal themselves, and you will find yourself on the short list of recommendations to the Prince for the Standing Quorum on Judicial Commissions and Tenure. Choose wisely, Judge."

Midday sunlight bathed the small apartment in Eidanger as Ylva switched the radio off. Thankfully their windows faced south to catch what little sun came this time of year. The light glinted off rooftops, the last of the leaves were falling from the trees, flurries blew through the air. It was peaceful.
Anyway, back to work it was.
Ylva turned back to their desk and sat down, staring at the teleplay in front of them...

“Hmm, really some could use work on this scene...” thought Ylva, and pressed on.

In the secluded recesses of Officer's Yard Tavern, Jacen Goode sought solace from the tempest of uncertainty that had engulfed him. A haven for discreet legal discussions, the Tavern provided a backdrop of muted conversations and the soft clinking of glasses as Jacen approached Silas Merrow's corner booth, bathed in the warm glow of amber light. Silas was a mentor of Jacen's dating back nearly ten years, helping to shape his career at the top firms in his 'orbit'.
Silas acknowledged Jacen with a nod, and as Jacen took a seat, the gravity of his predicament was evident in his expression. "Silas," Jacen began, urgency tinged with apprehension in his voice, "I'm in a situation that is tricker than the usual legal intricacies. I need your counsel, my friend."
Silas regarded Jacen with a discerning gaze, recognizing the weight on his shoulders. "Speak freely, Jacen. You've always been a bastion of reason in this chaotic world of ours." Silas slipped his phone into his briefcase and Jacen followed out of habit, as a newly common act by professionals in his line of work. 
Leaning in to ensure their conversation remained shielded, Jacen delved into the email from SilverShadow, detailing the subtle threats and the looming legal battle involving Woolrey-Arnold Pharmaceutical. Silas listened, his expression shifting from curiosity to a deepening concern.
"So, I'm being dragged into a conflict that extends far beyond the courtroom, Silas," Jacen confessed, frustration evident in his voice. "I'm being played, but the stakes are too high to ignore. If there's even a chance that our clients are implicated, I have to consider it."
Silas nodded thoughtfully, his fingers tracing the rim of his glass in contemplation. "You're navigating treacherous waters, Jacen. This is more than a legal dispute; it's a clash of powers."
"I'm reluctant about the implications of this, Silas, but the result for me may be the same either way," Jacen admitted, a hint of conflict and resignation in his eyes. 
Silas leaned back, his gaze fixed on Jacen. "Your reservations are justified. Now, consider this," Silas began, choosing his words carefully. "The government's reach extends further than we often realize. This... hacker, cyberterrorist, or whatever they are, suggest that the Innovation Basria projects, those initiatives you've aligned yourself with through your clients are intricately connected to Lovranvirus emergency legislation. It goes beyond the surface, Jacen."
Jacen's eyes narrowed, his calculating mind processing the implications. "Are you suggesting this might be more than just protecting a drug patent?"
Silas nodded knowingly. "Precisely, Jacen. The drug patent may just be the sharpest spear this Silver could find. Any lawyer with half your skill can make this case on intellectual property, so the question is why you? It's a precarious position, my friend, one that demands careful consideration."
As the two lawyers delved into the intricacies of the situation, Jacen grappled with the clash between self-interest and the broader implications unfolding before him. The dimly lit corner of the Tavern became a crucible for strategic deliberation, setting the stage for Jacen's internal struggle as he weighed his potential failure against the shadows of a deeper, more complex reality.

The Coming of Tamar
In the age of ancient mists, when shadows played upon the tapestry of time, there strode forth a warrior queen named Tamar, a colossus with tresses of chestnut, flowing like the russet leaves of autumn, and a countenance kissed by the ancient sun, imbuing her with olive-hued radiance. Her eyes, a vibrant green adorned with flecks of precious gold, mirrored the fires that blazed within her spirit.
From the bosom of her ancestral lands, Tamar marched northward, a formidable procession of ten thousand warriors marching to the cadence of destiny. The People of the River, in their hour of need, had dispatched emissaries, invoking Tamar's aid against the marauding Berganisk tribesmen. The thundering war drums of desperation had resounded through the ages, reaching her ears.
With a visage etched in determination and a sword clasped to her side, Tamar, akin to a tempest given flesh, led her mighty host through the craggy expanses of the northern realms. The very air seemed to hum with the echoes of their march, a prelude to the saga unfolding in the chronicles of antiquity.
As Tamar approached the field of strife, where the clash of arms and the lamentations of the oppressed composed a haunting symphony, she beheld the vast theater of conflict. The Berganisk tribesmen, fierce and unyielding, loomed like an insurmountable tempest. Yet, Tamar stood undaunted, a radiant beacon in the gathering storm.
The battle erupted, a dance of blades meeting blades, and the earth quivered beneath the weight of fate. Tamar, with the grace of a hunting falcon and the ferocity of a she-wolf guarding her progeny, wove through the chaos, her sword singing a ballad of liberation. Her warriors, inspired by her valor, fought as if each stroke of their weapons was a stanza in an ageless hymn.
Amidst the ebb and flow of conflict, Tamar's prowess proved unmatched. She carved a path through the ranks of the Berganisk tribesmen, her sword a divine implement of justice. The rivers of crimson flowed, and the very soil seemed to groan beneath the tumult of the confrontation.
In the heart of battle, Tamar confronted the chieftain of the Berganisk, a formidable adversary with eyes reflecting the storms of the northern seas. The clash of their weapons resonated like thunder, and sparks ascended like celestial embers. Tamar, resolute and unyielding, emerged triumphant, and the chieftain's surrender echoed through the battlefield like a zephyr.
With the Berganisk chieftain kneeling in submission, Tamar, her voice resonating with the authority of ancient times, proclaimed terms of peace. The invading hordes were subdued, and the People of the River, rescued from the encroaching darkness, hailed Tamar as their deliverer and queen.
The saga of Tamar, the ancient warrior queen, inscribed itself upon the scrolls of time, a tale of valor, sacrifice, and the indomitable spirit that rises to meet the challenges of a bygone era. Her name, a radiant luminary in the tapestry of history, stood as a testament to the enduring might of those who brandish the sword in the pursuit of justice and salvation.

Palace Intrigue is the Result of a Multi-Year Revamp
A centuries-old structure in Cambria's foothill region stands out thanks to a thoughtful, thorough restoration
by Katja Venere
In the heart of Olinapol, the White City of Cambria, lies the recently restored Palatine 2150 Boutique Hotel & Spa—a project destined to be. Design visionaries, Kaspar Lind and Riho Kannel, founders of Saint-Josalyn-based X Living, unexpectedly found themselves captivated by the allure of a 11th-century red palace during a leisurely visit to the Adana region. "We were immediately drawn to the potential of the centuries-old gem," shares Lind. "It was unthinkable not to make it a hotel; it really is just too beautiful to stay hidden."
Over a meticulous three-year period, the former Cambrian palace, once home to the city's inaugural mayor and various other historical figures, underwent a revival. Traditional handcrafted techniques, infused with a touch of modern flair, breathed new life into every nook and cranny. A nod to Tamaric Red, a prestigious status symbol in the 18th century, graced an entire façade, standing as a testament to the wealth of that era amidst Olinapol's iconic whitewashed structures.
The restoration journey revealed daily surprises, from fireplaces and stone vaults to frescoes dating back to the 1000s. The careful resurrection of smaller details, like a 11th-century cloister-style wooden door, hinted at the building's past as a possible convent.
While blending the old with the new presented its challenges, such as the meticulous restoration of the entire roof, the effort was rewarded. Each of the hotel's 12 guestrooms, named after gemstones, boasts a unique identity, adorned with treasures sourced from antique fairs, shops, and markets worldwide. "The main inspiration was to create exquisite design in every detail with beautiful energy while also preserving and celebrating the history of the building," explains Kannel.
Bistro 2150, nestled in a centuries-old vaulted stone room, opens onto a transformed traditional oil mill. The terrace extends to the swimming pool and garden, adorned with herbs and an pear orchard. Bar 2150 and the lounge, centered around a nearly 30-foot-long stone counter clad in antique Varanian tin plates, beckon guests with muted colors, inscribed eyes, and soft elements.
A hidden gem lies 23 feet underground—the hotel's spa, housed in an ancient water cistern. This luxurious escape features a hydromassage basin, steam bath, spa shower with chromotherapy, and a relaxing lounge adorned with Nieubasrian salt walls.
"We wanted to create something that didn't already exist, a hotel that is truly a one-off and that offers well-traveled guests an authentic Adanan experience," adds Lind. "A home away from home, if you will."
The Palatine 2150 is a harmonious blend of history, luxury, and Cambrian design ingenuity.
