Lady Elizabeth and Lord Andrew Charles would often be seen butting horns with each other and Lady Elizabeth reminded him that she was his heiress and nothing could replace her.

Lady Karissa would often have to remind Lady Elizabeth that the Old Gods and Goddesses were watching her every move and she must not anger them.

Lady Karissa reminded that good always overcomes evil and The Gods and Goddesses could bring anyone in power who they raised up and they would bring her down too if she didn't humble herself.

"Lady Elizabeth. You are 5 years old and I am going to read this scripture to you from The Bible and even though we are Pagans we believe we can learn from all the other major religions as they part truth in them." Lady Karissa tells her.

"When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan." Lady Karissa tells Lady Elizabeth.
