Warm and well lit, this room is equal parts windows and bookshelves. Overflowing with books, maps, parchment, and other odds and ends the shelves sag slightly from the weight. The lush maroon carpet complements the dark oak wood paneled walls, which are lined with rich tapestries.

lady in waiting
I am a lady in waiting. I attend the queen. I am the queen's assistant. I keep track of the queen's appointments and schedule. I wear elegant dresses. I am quiet and reserved during official occasions.
Hello princess how are you today. Thank you for inquiring. I am a bit nervous to tell you the truth, faithful servant. This book always helps me relax. What are you nervous for? Thank you for the book recommendation. My father is close to deciding whom will be my future husband. Oh I wouldn't worry about that dear. The queen tells me your new prince is a hunk. Sensitive too. It's quite worrisome but there is another man my father is seriously considering.  Yes but your mother knows best and she has already chosen. Your father will listen to her my lovely. Don't be too sure. The other man is old and unpleasant. The alliance that would be formed would be vastly beneficial to our kingdom. My father has been known to put the needs of the kingdom above all else. Sounds like he is on his last leg then. He won't be around for long and then the kingdom will be yours to rule as you see fit. Truth be told I don't even want to get married. I just want to stay here and run the castle's day to day affairs. I don't want to be shipped off to some far off kingdom to marry a man I hardly know. There there my dear. It won't be so bad. Think of all the places you will get to see. I would miss you terrible too. I would beg my father to send you with me but I would not want to tear you away from your home. There is no reason for both of us to suffer.
