   Summary

   She was to meet the King in a few days' time. She would have to stand tall and represent the Cousland name with all the courage her father and mother had in her last moments with them. She could not meet the King with a rainbow stitched onto her knife sheath or a flower at her breast. How silly would he think her? How childish? And so the color fell away with a sharp swipe of her dagger, leaving brown behind. Though to Grace, it may as well have been gray.
   Everything was gray, now.
