The court & contested claims

Dame Willowfeather

Keeper of What Actually Happened

She has the original. You have a strongly worded opinion.

Inventor of Duck Rune Script, fluent speaker of frog and keeper of the royal record. Willowfeather knows every duck’s name and which names they previously used. She investigated Peregrine’s documents without confusing sympathy with evidence. She also preserves Odette’s marriage entry, despite repeated requests to make the ink less permanent. The archive is not her memory. It is how she makes the rest of the court answerable to it.

Her spectacles are newer than the law. Most things are.
