Will you become a lady in waiting to the Boleyn girl now you are at court. I can't imagine the agony that Katherine of Aragon faces. To not see your own daughter must be living hell. Did you ever get to meet them both.
Like most of the Seymours' Edward and I were catholic just like his sister Jane. The changing of religion was a terrible blow to England and all eyes would be on Anne to see if she made up for the intial damage.

She shook her head slightly, in truth she never thought at such possibility.
I don't know, maybe.
She said simply.
Katherine of Aragon is a very strong woman, and she faces all with great dignity. And yes, I'd honore to met both of them.

They say that princess Mary has the courage of her mother. What happens to them both is out of our hands. We are all but sheep amongst the Boleyn family hoping that they won't attack our flock.
I felt sorry already for Catherine if she might have to be lady in waiting to the Boleyn girl.

Catherine looked around and expelled a long, heavy sigh. After several moments she nodded in agreement.
I wish we can do more for both of them, at least just to provide one day for them to be together, but as you said, nothing is in our power, now everything depends on the Boleyn's.

It's a very unnerving thought to leave everything to the Boleyns!
As I breathed out I noticed my breath gently leaving my body and floating through the air. Since when did it turn so Icy around here.
Edward isn't bothered by the Boleyn family. He wants to stay at court, stand his ground so to speak. I of course want to be a good wife and give him heirs he so rightly deserves.

Speaking about Boleyn's always troubled her soul, and she instantly felt better as she looked around and took a deep breath of the fresh air that blew lightly.
He is very lucky to have you, lady Anne. From everything I know I think you're the right woman for him, who would bring joy and happiness to him.

To clear her mind, Mary arrives at the spot which she gets a birds view of court and a beautiful view of the moon and stars which she finds quite serene and where she can relax. She brings and reads the letters William has sent over time to pass the time.

The faint flicker of my lantern, helped guide my way to Mary through the mist and fog, the moon was like a pearl shining bright for just is two. Finally, I saw the silhouette of my beloved standing alone waiting for me, my steps becoming quicker as I walked. My darling Mary. I take her hands in mine, and press her sweet hands to my lips. I hope you haven't been waiting too long for me. I just want to scoop her up in my arms and hold her.

"I haven't been waiting for too long at all." Mary says with a grin. "I trust you have found your way alright?" She says as she looks at him.
