Maeve continued to smile. Serene, and patient and unbothered by the going-ons. It was the best she could muster when she really wanted to scream and throw something. Preferably something that would shatter into a million pieces upon impact with a wall. It wasn’t the alchemist’s fault specifically, so, she smiled.
Vivek was acutely aware that he was somehow being blamed for the accident. Which was outrageous. The owl’s head swiveled around and he squawked in protest. Large talons clicked on the wood as he moved back to the scorch marks. He kicked at the blackened wood and flared his wings. As if to explain to the handmaiden that he had been helping.
These complaints were obviously lost on the humans. Maeve clicked her tongue at Vivek. “Why don’t you go bother your master for a change?” She scolded, and in a fit of pique, Vivek screeched again and flew off and upwards. Back into the rafters.
“There is a lovely square in the west courtyard.” The handmaiden turned her attention back to the alchemist. “Perhaps, you would find it easy to work there? Vivek tends to prefer the library. You’ll find sufficient space to work, and the stone to be much less...flammable.” The handmaiden was not-so-subtly suggest that he take his work away from the rare and precious tomes within the castle walls.
Bowing politely, Maeve made her leave.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
