Once upon a time there was a princess who ruled in place of her bedridden father. She ruled ably, but as her father worsened her burdens increased.
Then one day a wizard appeared before the princess. "I foresee that the king shall surely die tonight, and you shall become queen and your reign shall be long, and you shall be remembered in history centuries from now. Or I can heal your father, and he will live but shall lose his kingdom, and you shall never be queen."
Years later on a quiet mountainside a father and daughter lived happily ever after.
Brief Conceits will be moving off of Blogger onto a WordPress-powered site. The transition will happen later this week. The web address will remain the same, and if you are subscribed to the RSS that should remain the same as well. Thank you!
