The Duchess of Clarence Territory

What Are Friends For?

What A Friend For Based on The song By Dionne Warwick

Lady Karissa Elizabeth Ann Howard nee Lowell had two very good friends to her and they were Kevin Thomas Riley and Richard Williams.

Lt. Kevin Thomas Riley met Karissa while she was on board the USS Republic in 2273 and through Kevin she met Richard Williams and all three became very close friends throughout their lives.

Kevin Thomas Riley marries the second daughter of Lord Jeremiah Collins, Lady Isabella Namoni Collins, and with her they have two children, Lord Kevin Thomas Riley II and Lady Karen Elizabeth Riley.

Unfortunately, Richard Williams never married but he is very happy being single but he dates many of the non-aristocratic women on Star-Base 12.

Every now then, Lady Karissa arranges for a reunion between Kevin, Richard and her to get together at Pembroke Territory.

Kevin, Richard, Lady Isabella and their two children travel to Pembroke Territory to join Lady Karissa and her entourage at Pembroke Territory.

Lady Karissa remembers good friends and she wants to see them again, but Lord Andrew Charles and Kevin don't get along very well just like Lord Richard William Carey, but Lord Richard William Carey and Kevin are good friends with each other.

Richard, Kevin, Lady Isabella and their children travel to Pembroke Territory and when they arrive at the border of Pembroke Territory.

They wait until they see the Howard carriage meet them at the border and Lady Karissa with the help of Lord Richard William Carey helps her to step down from the carriage and all three start to run toward each other and they embrace each other in happiness.

Kevin and Richard embrace Karissa and Kevin is the first one to say " Hello Karissa. Thanks for inviting us to Pembroke Territory."

"You are welcome, Kevin." Karissa answers, " I thought it was time to see my old friends."

"Hello Richard." Karissa tells Richard.

"Hi Karissa. How are the children and you?" Richard asks her.

"We are all well." Karissa tells Richard.

"Where is Lord Andrew Charles?" Kevin asks.

"I left him to take care of Norfolk Territory. It is his albatross. " Lady Karissa tells Kevin " I hope it chokes him to death."

"I have my territory to govern.I come here every now and then to take care of my territory and to take a well deserved break from Pansy-Andy." Karissa admits.

"How is Lady Elizabeth?" Kevin asks.

"Lady Elizabeth is fine. I left her with her father at Beltane. I brought Lord Anthony, Lady Samhain, and Lady Caroline Matilda with me." Lady Karissa tells Kevin.

"Lady Elizabeth hates to be away from her second cousin,Lord Richard Edward III." Karissa tells Kevin.

"Lord Charles Andrew III can handle Lady Elizabeth better than her father can." Lady Karissa explains.

"Lady Elizabeth and her father butt horns with each other on everything." Lady Karissa states "I wonder sometimes if she isn't planning on how to end her father's life."

"Karissa. She is your daughter." Kevin tells her "I expect she will be just if not worse than you are." Kevin tells her.

"Kevin. I tried to get rid of Lord Andrew Charles, but he became a pest and the only way to get rid of him was to give a chance." Karissa tells him.

"Lord Andrew Charles became a pain up my ass and the only thing I knew to do was to give him what he wanted and I wish I hadn't but if I didn't I wouldn't had Lady Elizabeth, Lady Samhain, Lord Anthony and I wouldn't have met my dear Lord Richard William Carey and I wouldn't have had our dear Lady Caroline Matilda." Lady Karissa tells him.
