Moon, Sun, Dragons progress

I wrote about 400 words today. (I'm just aghast, watching Charlie Stress crank out at the rate he's going. Does the man never sleep?). So far, I've got a good if somewhat predictable set of conflicts: Cheillene lives in the Savoy region, dresses like the Genoese Italians on the other side of the pass except when she's at her studies, in which case she dresses like a student, in a Venetian robe with a silver ribbon over her very modest juve', or underdress. She wants to be her father's daughter, a scholar and a mage.

Her aunt (and King-appointed guardian), Lady Adelynn, lived in the Paris district for 20 years, dresses in Spanish fabrics with Parisian styles (exposing most of the bosom), and wants Cheillene to be a lady of the court, genteel and ready to be married off to some fop.
