marycatelliSo why is this story so hard to plot?
The heart-rending story of two people forced together by the politics and machinations about them! They do not care who sits on the throne, but they come to care for each other!
I conclude that they do not care about politics, but politics cares about them. Not in the sense that anyone thinks two lowly born characters have any say in how things turn out. (Until the end, hehehehehe. . . ) But in the sense that I will need at least the broad strokes of how things turn out.
