Family Matters: An Elfhamian Home
“What do you mean, ‘Do it again?’”
I’d spent the entire morning sweeping, dusting, and scrubbing every room in the house, without using any of the household cantrips that I know.
And she wants me to do it all again?
“Yes,” Mrs. Fletcher said, giving me a severe glare that, Elves Don’t Lie, made me feel like a bug pinned under her hoof. “They may think that this is ‘clean’ in the Empire, but it is not up to our standards.”
“The Master – “
She stamped a hoof. “You will not speak of him in this house,” she hissed at me. “You are here because the [First of Eldest] requested that I teach you two things, and not above two things.” She took a breath before saying. “Now, you will prepare lunch for the two of us.”
I knew better than to argue, although I could feel my tail snapping back and forth a bit. “Yes, Ma’am.”
