Adriana Kane watched as her maids and servants ran around her manor, checking for anything out of place. The king would be visiting her home for dinner this evening. Her father had arranged this meeting to take place for the last year or so. The king seldom had time to himself after there last war. Adriana knew of why this meeting was so important. Her mood had yet to change since she learned of her fathers plot to ensnare the kingdom. Using her as bait. The king had accepted the invitation, most likely knowing of what this was about. Glancing at dress she ran a hand across the fine details of it, the golden beads were sewn in a pattern of a small rosebud, the vines going around her waist. The trail ended towards the end of the dress with a few more roses that had bloomed. The red of the dress made the gold sparkle, her pale skin was powdered and her eyes were dressed with fine golden powder. Her lips were painted a ruby red color. Looking around the great hall, she felt a sense of wonder. The hall had been transformed from its usual drab dark colors to fine golds and even more red colors. Her father of course came to make sure that everything would go right. Adriana glanced to her left and watched a maid almost bump into a male servant with a food tray, the two exchanged apologizes and went along as normal to their duties. Duty, why did her father think that her duty was to marry into the royal family? Why couldn't she marry whom she loved? She knew this was not the way for women of her birth.Turning away from the great hall she headed out towards the gardens.
