❝Our lives are not our own. From womb to tomb, we’re bound to others. Past and present. And by each crime and every kindness, rebirth our future.❞ Your characters keep meeting across time and space, dying and being born again. Every lifetime is an adventure. For reference / inspiration: the Cloud Atlas trailer how to: ♛ tag in with your characters: write about who they were in the past, give them alternate names, make up alternate history: there are no hard and fast rules. ♛ tag others: is it a love story for the ages? a rivalry that spans centuries? is there something that draws them to another, something they can't quite pin down? an overwhelming sense of deja vu? or was it just someone you saw in a dream? ♛ have fun, and be excellent.

Her protection can be explained away easily to the witch finders: concern for those of the lands she will one day inherit. Suspicion may be raised, but she trusts her father.

Protect those here, and they will all be safe.

It's the feeling the man doesn't trust her. Then again, she may be projecting her own feelings. As much as she knows of the estate, she's had to stay distant. It makes her an unknown.

"The land here is nothing without its people. To lose one to this madness would be a tragedy. I thank you for your help, and caution."

Merlin isn't sure whether she means those words or not, though he hopes desperately that she does. A landowner should think like that, because it was the truth, and both the people and the land would thrive if more people knew it.

"Of course, my lady, I care as much for those people as you clearly do," they were his family, of a sorts, and even though he didn't always get along with a lot of them, he would never want to see any of them hurt.
