Original X-roads-2003

    “Waters, Jasylin Jaye.” Gartan turned to me. “Do you stand ready?”
    My heart began to beat quickly, judging from what happened to Sertoff, “I’m not sure.”
    “You are hereby ordered to take active control of the Triblician Army. For action beyond and above the call of duty, and for obedience becoming a commanding officer. Congratulations Commander Jasylin, you have been promoted.”
    I laughed a nervous laugh, then turned and hugged Jonothan for all he was worth. “I’m in charge!” I started jumping up and down.
    “Sertoff, the commity has also found your marriage to Jasylin invalid, so is therefore now null and void on all planets and systems.” Gartan added in.
    “You’ll pay for this, Wizard.” Sertoff threatened, taking his eyes off me.
    “It is, after all, your own fault, by which you deceived her by trickery.” the man to Sertoffs’ right warned him. “Any action taken against Jonothan will result in severe punishment.”
    Sertoff then turned and walked out of the house, I almost felt bad for him. In fact I do feel bad for him, I feel sorry for him.
    Jonothan moved his arm from around me, “You can talk to him.”
