Rapunzel Retellings Blog Tour | Interview with Misha


It’s Day Three of the Rapunzel-themed Blog Tour, hosted by Kendra E. Ardnek and Kirsten Fitcher. 
Check out Kendras blog, Knitted by Gods Plan, for more info on her latest work, Misfortune.
Visit Kirsten at A Synesthete Writer to learn about her Rapunzel Retelling, Diamond.

Today, it’s my privilege to interview Misha, one of the characters from Kendra’s Misfortune. But first, a bit about the book he’s in:
Misfortune 
Tagline: Is the safety of a country worth the sacrifice of one girl - even if she is the daughter of blood and misfortune? 
Book Description: 
A Twist of Adventure #4 The day she was born, her kingdom fell, and so she was branded the daughter of blood and misfortune and locked away. Now a dragon plagues the land and her curse may be the only thing that stops it. 
But is she really cursed?

And now, to meet our honored guest.
Welcome, Father* Misha, to The Rambling Rose. My friends and I have prepared a comfortable seat for your use during this interview.
*An archaic honorarium given to older men, regardless of parental status.

1.) Tell us a little about yourself.
I’m an old man who hasn’t seen his own country in a long time. Our exile is nearing its end, but I’m afraid that I’m too old to make the return myself. Besides, I’ve made a bit of a place for myself here in my exile.

2.) As a boy, did you receive any special training or education?
I was actually a member of the royal court of my own country, and so I was taught according to my station. And, then, when I was brought to Ablon, I received further training for the duties I would perform for King Nezzer there.

3.) Have you done any traveling in your day? If so, tell us about a memorable journey you once took.
I’m a long way from my own country. Yes, it was a bit of a journey - wasn’t my choice, but it was where God wanted me.

4.) What were your first impressions of Delshad?
He was quite a young lad when I first saw him, but I took him immediately for an intelligent fellow with a big heart. He’s grown into quite a fine young man.

5.) Do you have a favorite color?
Not particularly, but I do have fond memories of the gold of the temple of my God.

6.) What are your views on the state of the kingdom?
Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall. I’ve served under worse kings.

7.) Have you any words of wisdom for the young people of today?
God may want you in a place where you don’t want to be. Just hold to your faith and His standards, and He’ll see you through.

Wise words, indeed, old father. Thank you for being part of this event.

There are lots of other things going on today—pop on over to join the fun!
