OOC: This story is set back in roughly the 15th or 16th Century Ireland, though I am not specifying year. I am merely choosing an era to set the mood. This story is to be D/s in nature, for the most part, but there is no firm structure to follow. I would like there to be a Dominant Lord of the castle as the main male role. (And, preferably that the RPer for this character to have a personal interest in D/s to carry out the role better.) He can have a Lady of the castle as well, but I would prefer for her to not be Dominant in nature, though not submissive to Him. If there is a female RPer who knows of Pagan/Ancient Celtic beliefs, then the role of Brighid can be active through this story. My role will be one of the servant girls (daughter to the former King who's throne was overthrown). (If any male RPer would like to take the role of my character's father, the former King, that is fine too.) Any and all other characters that would fit into this Medieval world are invited. I just ask that you somehow introduce them into the story in a manner that flows with the whole. Thank you and happy RPing!

The sound of rain falling against the side of the stone wall was the only comfort, no matter how minute, Jezel had. To be trapped, as a prisoner, in her father's own castle, her home, was unheard of! She'd given up pacing long ago, and resorted to one of the straw stuffed lumps that passed for one of the many beds in the grand prison. She stared up into the sky, through the small barred window just inches from the stone ceiling, and prayed to the Goddess Brighid for strength. Her knees were tucked up to her chin, her arms wrapped around her legs for support. She was rocking slightly. Her lips moved as she voiced the silent prayers.
Off in the distance her father, the former King, watched her. A look of concern and worry quickly filled his face. She's going to crack, he thought. He felt he should do something to comfort her, to console her, but he didn't know what. She had long since stopped being a child when her mother died just before puberty, and now she had years of womanhood's wisdom on her shoulders. She was no longer daddy's little Princess. Yet, the King couldn't help but feel the need to protect his "little girl".
He took a step toward his daughter, making his way though the mass of about half his Kingdom thrown into the prison together, but was quickly cut off when the heavy door to the dungeon was opened. The mass stared in the direction of the door. The mass, all but one, that is. Jezel remained fixated to the heavens, praying for guidance.
OOC: I ended my part of the story to leave it open to anyone who wishes to take any role next. (Be it the father, the new Lord of the castle, any of His guard, any other person in the prison, or even Brighid.)
