Six Sentence Sunday: I'm Back!

September had its fun and its horrifying disasters, and I'm finally back! Don't miss the family tree for The Seven Noble Knights of Lara and an explanation of the names here. It's time to go back to your favorite tenth-century wedding, picking up where we left off:

* * * 

Count García arrived at the site of the commotion, parting the soldiers like the Red Sea. He made a regal, sweeping gesture at Ruy Blasquez's soldiers. "Stand down."

Ruy Blásquez looked at doña Lambra, who still flickered with rage. Holding his nose with one hand and holding up the other as evidence, he said, "Look at all this blood, my lord, at my own wedding. You really should allow such a justified feud to take place."

* * * 

Thanks for stopping by! I really appreciate your comments. I can't wait to get back to reading all of your wonderful sentences, too.

    So much going on at this wedding! Nothing like a blood feud to liven up a ceremony.

    OMG! "Holding his nose with one hand and holding up the other as evidence" is hilarious! Love it! This wedding could make people want to just live in sin! So glad it's back! Great snippet.
