Gwenyth was halfway home when she realized about some preperations that needed to be made. She had promise to set out her best flowers around the great hall to brighten the room of a great dinner that would be held. It seemed time had gotten away from her and she would be late to the dinner, but she had to hurry back and gather a collection and bring it to the great hall.
She turned around and headed straight for the gardens entrance avoiding the entrance where the king was. She had no time to be distracted by his person and needed to collect her best.
She entered the garden and saw a few of her hand helpers already at working picking her best.
"Alicia! Thank goodness you are already here! I have no time to look presentable and place these flowers in the great hall... I picked the priority." She winked and smiled at her young help. Alicia was only thirteen years of age and already aspiring to put Gwenyth out of business.
"Oh Gwenyth, don't be silly, Grandmother has you a gown and wishes you to attend the dinner." Alicia laughed at her mentors shocked face. Gwenyth had been working very hard lately and Alicia's Grandmother (the Grandma was like a grandmother to all the castle inhabitants for she lived there so long to be a mother to them all) had wished she take the evening off.
"You go see grandmother and she'll show you the beautiful dress she made. You don't want to disappoint her do you!?"
Gwenyth barely had much time to respond for Alicia had whisked her away and in less then a half hour she was dressed and beautiful as ever. She was wearing a beautiful
gown, the best she's ever owned. "Now dear," Grandmother spoke softly, "Go towards the hall and enjoy yourself. Who knows maybe you will sit close enough to see the king." At this Gwenyth's face went red and she watched as grandmother giggled at her facial expression. "Go!"
With no other choice, Gwenyth left to the great hall.
