There was a small attack on the city, and then preparations began for the larger one that happened a bit later. It's been quiet on that front since, though.
It won't last, but people seem content enough to forget for the moment. In any case, until after those battles, I didn't take much time to think about settling in.
[ He's thinking it would be a blessing if it came as soon as it could. Sherlock might actually feel better, and he probably would too. Messed up as it is. ]
[it's true. sophie's not quite ready to talk about her own violent tendencies, though]
The first attack was right at the beginning of autumn, I think, and the battle began perhaps a fortnight after it passed and lasted...four days, perhaps five? And then midwinter was a few weeks after that. I try not to mark time too closely here.
Because it's easier for me not to think about how long it's been. Asgard is not a sentence that will end after a certain time has passed, it's a task that can only be accomplished in its own time. Measuring it won't help me.
Very much so. Violet and Francescu, at least, were quite put off by suitors when they were young. Manfred enjoys certain benefits of knighthood, at least in terms of attractiveness to women.

He's a bit odd for a kid, isn't he?

Not where I'm from. I haven't been a child for a long time. How old would it be in your world, to be considered an adult?

Modernity seems rather strange, on that account.
