Outfit:
Leah scuttled as quietly as should
could into a small room that
jutted out from the queen's room.
She sat as gracefully as her weird
gangly self could in
a chair next to the window, and waited.
She was a bit unsure of what she was
supposed to be doing,
especially when she had no lasting
constant orders to
follow each day, and nor the Queen or her
ladies were around to tell her something to do.
She was that submissive. She had to have
someone to tell
her what to do, because, she saw as she
looked around the castle,
there wasn't much to be doing.
Though Leah did not want to
be lazy, perhaps it was
best to just stay put and wait until
someone found her
to send her on an errand of sorts,
to give her a task. Until that time though,
she would do what
she was doing now, and gaze out
the skinny, minuscule
window, and dream.

Kaitlin-Rose scurried around helping her majesty prepare for a hearing in the court. You knew something was up when the Queen herself was needed in the court. She helped her lady bathe, dress, and eat before escorting her down to the Great Hall. There she saw many important men seated at a long table. At the head sat proudly their King. Great King Andrew. Her eyes scanned and landed on Nathan who was seated only a couple chairs away from the king. Next to his uncle and father. They had great powers in the court. She refrained herself from smiling at him, and when her majesty excused her maids, Kaitlin courtesied and went back to her majesty's chamber.
When she got there, there was a single maid sitting in the chambers. Odd. Usually everyone was bustling around at this time of day.
"Hello," she greeted, "are you looking for something?" she asked politely.
Before answering, Kaitlin set to work. You couldn't just stand around. There were always preparations to be made.
Quickly she started making up the Queen's bed. She made sure the sheets were pressed and not wrinkled. Then making sure each blanket was on top without a single caress. Then arranging the pillows just so. That is why she was one of Queen Catherine's favorites. She did things the right way consistently. Then she made sure that the soiled bath water was dumped out and the tub rinsed out for her next wash. Like clock work she went around the room making it spotless. Wondering just what the other maid was doing.

Leah was rather alarmed when she heard
someone else enter behind her. It wasn't
often that she encountered other members
of the court, let alone talk to someone.
She replied politely, "Oh no, I am not looking
for something, merely something to do, thank you."
She watched as Kaitlin scurried about, doing
this and that. She felt uncomfortable watching
someone else work - it
was very uncharacteristic of her. Leah stood up,
feeling a bit under the weather, and
walked over to where Kaitlin
worked. "Just out
of curiosity, would it be better if I went
downstairs, perhaps to the kitchens, to work,
rather than stay up here? I don't
want to be where I'm not needed of course."
