The kitchens are a busy, hot place. They are filled with kitchen staff rushing around to prepare the main meals for the king's family and residing nobles. Tonight they are preparing two deer the king and his nobles caught while hunting, as well as some rabbit from a few days ago and seasoned vegetables. There are multiple fires around the kitchen to cook the animals and boil the vegetables, and combined with the heat of all the people the room is stifling. While the main kitchen workers are middle aged women who stay at one station, there are also younger children running around taking ingredients from one place to another. People are shouting instructions and gossip to one another constantly, so it is very hard to hear anything, but the atmosphere is very cheerful.

I need a new cushion for this throne! All this chatter in court is giving me a headache!  That Lord that just walked past offended my nose with his odor.  I need to find my chambermaid.
Hello, young woman. My day could be a lot better; it's been really stressful lately. I understand that. It's really busy in here. I know this is a weird place to ask... but would you want some flowers? I could be interested. After all, I did just smell the most offensive odor. What kind of flowers do you have? I have roses mainly. They smell delicious!  I love roses! Do you happen to have red ones? Those are my favorite and they smell so nice. I do. I have a lot of variations of roses. They're some of my favorites as well. Then I will buy some red ones if that would be okay. That would be great! I can sell you two bundles for one gold coin. Lovely! That's a great deal, thank you. You are doing your kingdom a great service. I do what I can. I'm just trying to help where I can Well, you've helped me a lot. I can feel my headache going away already. I'm glad I could be of help. No Queen should be super stressed all the time
