"I am trying not to." But it had become increasingly difficult ever since the (at first) peaceful picnic was being accomodated by loud arguing between Artanis, ΓrissΓ«, TurcafinwΓ« and AmbarΓ‘to. ArafinwΓ« had not been paying enough attention to know what they fought about, but the two princesses had banded together while each prince fought for himself. Then Ambarussa had joined in, rushing to their brother's rescue.
The family rarely came together on such a big scale, which was a shame. That the family also barely got along was an even bigger shame.
