Chapter seven

Floating, about four inches off the concentrated glass like rock that everything was made of in Harmony, Maria traveled down the tunnel toward the main city. It wasn't that she hadn't been there before, but this was a very different direction to be coming from. At first it was simple enough, since there was only the one. It was a very long tunnel. At least forty foot wide, meant only for traveling through. Eventually however, she noticed doors in the sides of it, and a few shops. Things that had large glass fronts on them, to display their wares. It was all free, but some of them were so fascinating that Maria wanted to stop, and spend some time just looking.

She didn't need much, but these things had arrays of lights, little shows to attract attention and in one case, several people dancing inside. Just to call to the greedy Countess within her. She resisted, knowing that it was too important for her to get to her real task that day.

The Countess was in a nice, very voluminous gown, which moved as she traveled, the lace and silk making a rustling sound. It was a brilliant red and black thing, meant to catch attention and inflame passions, though she didn't know if that would help or hurt her cause there that day. There was no real need for Tiera, the Queen of her own world, to even involve herself in the affairs of King Richard. Much less should she bother helping, or even seeing, Maria Ward.

It would be a trick, getting in to meet with the woman then.

That being the case, Maria decided not to try and hit her with requests directly, but rather to go and see if Patricia would help her first. They were lovers, or had been, and the woman was even still supposed to be her girlfriend, meaning she might well help her out in a pinch. Even better, she was Richard's niece, and liked her uncle well enough to want him to remain unharmed. Hopefully. There had been rumors to the contrary, but Maria kind of figured that was all part of a ruse too. If not...

Well, then that would be another friend gone, when things were all over, most likely.

She didn't know exactly how to find her though. The first thing she tried was going to her home, and simply pressing the button that made a loud bell chime inside. Nothing happened, even after doing it several times and waiting for about ten minutes. That probably meant no one was inside. After that... Well, she had no clue what Trice did with her days, did she? Shopping seemed likely, given the availability of things there, but doing that all the time would pale soon.

No, she'd find some work to keep herself busy. Perhaps in the whore house? That was free there too, and open to all, which made it both popular and less looked down upon than in many places. Once the transactional portion was taken away, it was really more or less just people meeting up to have fun.
