Archilochus colubris III
Eleanor flits, curious, desiring to see the sons of Adam enthroned before her in folding chairs. She hides to drink, but raises a cautious head and weighs the young magi with a single bright eye. She grows braver with each visit. Eleanor flits, hovers dances before them, little knowing she has captured the heart of a king. Her courage has found favor— for he has determined to feed her from his own hand.

I feel like I know brave Eleanor, foolish King George, and graceful Joan personally. Thank you for introducing us to them in such a lovely way!
