Re: In the Name of the King (AU/CC/Mature) Ch. 80 01/08/12 p

Chapter 79 Bad News That night, Isabel and Diana met in their dreams. They’d been meeting on a fairly regular basis since the end of the war, both to keep Isabel informed about what was happening, and because, quite frankly, they needed each other.
