And then I’ll be Queen Sophie. The most beautiful and powerful
woman in the realm!”
“Wrong. I’ll be queen and you can marry Evander!”
If I had to hear anything else about Prince Torin or any of the other
available princes and noblemen who would be choosing a wife over the
coming weeks, I was going to scream.

“Girls!” I interrupted, causing my entire class to quit their whispered
discussions and give their attention to me.
“Sorry, Miss Evie,” Sophie and Sarah said at the same time. Their
embarrassment at being called out showed quickly as their faces flushed
red.
I held up a hand and shook my head. “It’s okay. I know everyone is
excited for the month break from lessons and for the celebrations.” I had
been battling the class all week, and each day we got closer to break, the
harder it got. “There’s just one more thing we need to go over before the
end of the day.”
“A
I turned and grabbed my remaining piece of chalk. My last, tiny, pathetic
piece of chalk. I cursed our king for not getting more supplies to us. The
leaky roof, the broken window, and the general condition of everything in
this one-room schoolhouse was utterly unacceptable. Swallowing a growl
of frustration, I started writing on the board.
The Recurrence.
Several echoes of ‘yay’ and ‘yes’ rang out behind me, and I grinned. If I
couldn’t keep their focus with regular lessons, at least this would count as a
history lesson, and it tied in perfectly with why not one child in my class
could focus.
“Now,” I turned around to face the twelve children who spent more time
with me than anyone else in their lives. “Who can tell me what The
Recurrence is and why we celebrate it?”
Every hand in the room shot up.
“Nikolas,” I said, nodding at the blond, curly-haired boy who never
raised his hand. His shyness often got the best of him, so if he was willing
to volunteer, I would absolutely call on him. He straightened in his seat and
cleared his throat. “The Recurrence is a month-long celebration across the
whole realm that happens every ten years!”
I nodded, and Nikolas beamed a big smile back at me. “Correct. And
Luke, can you tell me why we celebrate it?”
The boy sitting next to Nikolas nodded eagerly. “We celebrate it to honor
the alliance between the four kingdoms of our realm.”
“Five kingdoms,” Nikolas corrected.
“But there aren’t five. Not anymore!” Sarah shouted.
I held up my hand. “Alright, alright! When The Recurrence began
centuries ago, it was because the five kingdoms in the realm signed a peace
agreement. One that ensured no more needless fighting between the
kingdoms. Each kingdom would rule over its own lands, but agreements
were put in place that everyone would work together to build a better realm
for all of us. But Sarah is right—there are no longer five kingdoms.”
