An enchanting step back in time. Nicely written. Characters seemed real and their dialogue appropreiate to their characters. It's ashame heirs must always be male. But it's a man's world but us woman are catching up. Beware. Mary

It's lovely being a virtual fly on the wall, and watching a conversation between two dowager ladies, worrying about houses of peerage heirdoms, even if it is fictional. I love the the polite, but quite pointed anxiety of one, and the ever so polite responses of the other. I haven been following these episodes, but I enjoyed the perceptive and focused way you approached this one, well done, good work, blessings, Roy

Good use of language, customs, and polotics of the time. Good descriptions of the hunt. Good choice to coincide this conversation and the hunt for heirs with an actual hunt. Good character development.

Hello Zanya,
I truly enjoyed reading your story!! I found it be interesting from start to finish. Honestly some writers get slightly lost somewhere in the middle, not you though. This was a fantastic read all the way til the end, very impressed. Your choice of certain words and just all together how you created this. Job very nicely done. I hope to read more of future pieces. Good luck to you my friend.

Zanya--
As a faithful reader of Margaret Snowdon who deals with many of the same matters as you less...ironically, negatively, I am intrigued at what you might be doing.

If you are to match Snowdon, and I certainly don't know that is your intention, you need to bee as perfectly proofread.

I did not really keep track but I think there are a number of "minor" errors here like this:

of the heart(.)? He is

You need to eliminate these I think. But I am interested in what you are doing, thanks. Much greater class-political consciousness than Snowdon.

Best
