her maid
guest
I am provided a special place to sleep. I may be tired after my travels. I am furnished with warm hospitality and a good meal.
Yes thank you, you are a good maid. Well, the princess will be with you shortly. Would you like some tea as well? Yes thank you. I'll have your herbal infusion ready in a few minutes. We have had a wonderful crop this year. Yes this place is truly wonderful. Where do you come from, my dear? You seem like you have seen more sun. I am from Rutherford in the East. Oh, and there is more open space and deserts? Yes it is a peaceful place, very hot though. They say there are great horses, with large humps there. Do they bite? No but these animals, camels, can travel for so long with no water. Very useful. One day, I would so love to ride a...camel. Anyway, I've forgotten all about your tea!
