Summary
This time the clouds bear no false promises, and rain soaks the parched earth. Relief-giddy villagers dance in the downpour, hands raised to the sky, while the cantonment scrambles for cover under the eaves.
A single figure crosses from the canopy to the playing field. Elizabeth's clothing was not woven for wet weather, and by the time she reaches the middle of the throng, her white lace dress is rendered gray and clinging to her skin. Her waterlogged hat drips into her eyes. Casting it off along with her sodden gloves, she seeks none but two.
varsha (Hindi): rainfall

Summary
The wedding of King Jagadeesh of Druadal and Count Elias – now Prince Consort Elias – was hardly a love marriage. How could it be, when it came just over a year after the death of the renowned Vijayamalini, Jagadeesh’s queen of seventeen years, and barely six months after Elias’s husband of a decade, Count Nicolas, met his end in a hunting accident? No, this was a match of pure pragmaticism, born out of Druadalian wisdom that its monarchs should always have a spouse by their sides, and the deep debts that Nicolas’s sudden demise had left in his wake.
(In which two still-grieving widowers wed each other without expecting anything.)
Title from Nikita Gill’s poem “I Named Us Grief”.
