Since they had come to Meganea, Imeeya had finally felt like she could relax and enjoy this trip to Taengea. Things were finally back to the plan that she had expected. She and Asia had made up, and Asia had been enjoying the archery lessons with her cousin. This, however, had left Imeeya with a good deal of free time while Asia was preoccupied with the archery lessons with her cousin, Dorothea. Imeeya herself had little interest in these archery practices, so Imeeya had had plenty of time to explore the house, and the grounds around it.
Today was one of those afternoons. Imeeya had been trying her best to keep herself busy during her time at the Dimitrou estate. One thing that had held Imeeya’s interest since she had been there was the library. It was so refreshing to come to a house that had a different collection of books than her own, and she had been devouring the tomes that she had never seen before, especially the works on history and politics. So that afternoon Imeeya had intended to take herself to the library and spend the afternoon immersed in a good book.
Imeeya entered the room and browsed around for a few moments, looking for a tome on Greek history she had spotted a couple of days before but hadn’t had the time to read. Someone else had clearly been in the library looking through the books aside from herself as the tome wasn’t where she had originally seen it, at least as far as she could tell. She wasn’t extremely familiar with the layout of this library so perhaps she was mistaken as to the location. As she searched, she heard footsteps approaching, but they stopped and then turned around and headed away again. Imeeya did not look up to see who it might be, as she didn’t particularly desire conversation. But the turn of her head in the direction of the noise was just enough for her to spot what she was looking for. She took the book from the shelf, dusting it lightly, before heading towards the windows where the seats for reading were located. However, when Imeeya got there, she found that her favorite seat was already occupied, by the woman who had been introduced to her as the Queen of Athenia only days before.
