Just ass Nadia reached the castle gates, she spotted Rika and the unfamiliar knight and she went to them instead of looking for Ocgnoton. She came just after what Rika said to the other guards, so she didn't hear her words. "Rika~! Hello!" She called out happily, waving to her. Nadia skipped towards them and beamed at the other guards, getting smiles back in return. Nadia went to Rika and hopped around excitedly near her. She had always liked hanging around Rika and enjoys listening to how Rika handled her job- it was much better than the things she had to learn in the castle.
Elise saw the princess and the female guard, what was her name? Right, Rika. She decided to go towards them instead, as they may have more solid news. She walked towards them and bowed lowly, "Your majesty." Then she turned to Rika and bowed, though not as low. "May I ask what happened here as that surf is a bit distracted so he cannot answer me questions." Elise said. She just realized that she smelled of pigs and hoped she could get a quick answer before they noticed.
Nadia noticed Elise walking towards them and smiled at her. She waited for her to finish bowing, and then heard her question. "Unfortunately Elise, I have no clue. I saw him riding on a horse from the dining room table and was wondering what had happened. From how fast he was going on the horse, I thought something important happened and quickly ate my breakfast, which was delicious by the way" Nadia said to Elise. She then turned to look at Rika and tilted her head a little. "Perhaps Rika knows what is going on?" she suggested, hoping Rika did know something as she was really curious.
Aleksandr was slightly sad to see Nadia arrive late and leave early. He was very fond of Nadia and maybe took too much of a liking for her. He generally hid this from his brothers and sisters, and especially his mother and father, the King and Queen. Perhaps this ran in royal blood.
He continued eating and said nothing, acting stoically toward Nadia arriving and leaving. If anything, he felt slightly embarrassed to say anything when she said, Hello--expecting the oldest to reply first. He said nothing, as well. Prince Aleksandr continued eating, feeling the need to leave the table just as Nadia had--to go see where her mind was dwelling. She was acting abnormally.
His mind kindly thought of the noise he heard earlier this morning, perhaps there was something to do with the noises. He sighed and excused himself, thanking his family for the breakfast. He bowed and left the room.

Nadia waited to hear what they had to say when she happened to look at the huge clock that was on the castle, realizing that she was going to be late for a promised walk in the gardens with Alexi. If there was one thing she couldn't stand, that was having others wait for her. "I'm sorry, I guess I can only hear about it later.." Nadia said with a slight frown. She said a light goodbye to them and the guards and turned back to go inside the castle, walking towards the gardens.
Elise heard the clock and was alarmed how fast the time had gone. She muttered a brief apology to Rika and rushed off to the kitchen. The head chef thoroughly scolded her for her waste of time and therefore set her at the job of peeling giant amounts of potatoes for lunch. She didn't complain as it was her fault and got to peeling potatoes. She sat outside while peeling them, facing the woods and she hoped that she would see the surf and hear of his news.

Mystearica took a broom and went outside, it was a good time for brooming, she did it slowly while singing sleeping songs with a low beautiul voice, she was so focuse she did not see Elise and covred in dust
"oh my god im so sorry!"
"oh my god im so sorry!"
Elise blinked, half the potatoes now covered in dust as well. She turned and saw the servant, "It's alright, it's just dust." She said gruffly and brushed it off herself. Though I don't have any idea how I'm going to get them off the potatoes she thought to herself. "You have a beautiful voice," Elise said with a smile. "I've seen you around, though I don't know if I've ever caught your name. I'm Elise," Elise said and put out her hand after wiping it on a cloth so it wasn't dusty.
Prince Aleksandr suddenly remembered that he was going to be seeing Nadia for a brief time in the Royal Garden. He blushed thinking of the time being spent with his beloved sister. He quickly started walking to the garden, wondering if Nadia had been expecting and anticipating in excitement over the walk in the garden with him. Had she left the table early to prepare? He smiled lightly to himself and quickly brushed off the smile, continuing his stoic response towards her.
Perhaps his stoicism towards her, his usual friendly manner disappeared when she was around, urged the king to schedule the meeting. Whatever the scheduling, Aleksandr did not complain. He was secretly pleased.

"oh, my name?" she handed Elise a handkerchief and whenon her knees to clean the potatoes with another handkerchief "my name is mystearica, but everyone calls me tear" she smile sweetly "my god,,,what a mess..im so sorry, i get in my own world when singing"
"Nice to meet you tear," Elise said and started to help her clean off the potatoes. "It's alright, a little dust never hurt anyone." She said and continued wiping off the dust from potatoes. "Again, you have such a beautiful voice, I don't blame you." Elise said, "So, how long have you been working for the royal family?" She asked as she brushed some of her hair from her eyes and continued cleaning.
"Milady," she turned to see the cook, "Lady Elise." She blushed in embarrassment in such an honor of seeing the princess in such . . Such a state! Nearly after the death of an innocent peasant woman. She was about to explain when both had rushed off in a bolt of speed. "Well . . That was odd."
Nadia changed into a nicer dress and quickly went to the garden, relieved to find that Alexi was not there yet. She sat on a chair while she waited for him, clearly eager for the walk she was about to have with her brother. She liked Alexi the most amongst her siblings and was the one that kept asking for the walk to be held.
Charles got in a carrige, the carrige was going to the castle where he would start his job.
Prince Aleksandr generally dressed to impress, and did not need to quickly out on a new suit, and thus, he walked quickly to the Royal Garden. The garden was lavish and beautiful with an extravagantly carved, elegant, white marble fountain in the middle of the garden, surrounded by various colors of flowers which also outlined paths and secret passageways amongst the garden's beauty.
Aleksandr spotted Nadia and walked over to her. He looked down at Nadia, standing in front of her. She was sitting elegantly in the bench. He spoke calmly, stoically, as usual, "You've been waiting for me. I hope not long. How are you, Princess Nadia?" His hands were tucked in my pockets, nervously. He remained string standing, with his tall, slim, lean build.

Ogcnoton bowed to the others on his knees constantly bringing his hands up then bring them back to the ground, it seemed more like he was praying than bowing to someone. The truth was he didn't expect the royalty, and having this many people look at him made him nervous. Now looking around panicking on his knees his eyes met with the breast of rika before he shook his head and looked to the prince.
"sir, t-the knight, there all over like the plague I mean there here" he said before continuing to bow to them.
Taking a deep breath before standing up and looking around at the crowd he had created, hoping the didn't take him to the dungeon for heresy or treason, despite doing nothing of the sort. still he wasn't sure how well they could trust him but he was the one who knew there plans. "there are knights in the kings forest, I was on a walk, not poaching m'lord please do not take my hands, and I came upon a camp of knights, there have to be more I swear they may attack at any moment" he said before putting hands to guard his head in case anyone was getting ready to strike him.

Nadia looked up as she heard the familiar voice. Smiling happily, she looked at Prince Aleksandr. "Alexi!" She said happily and stood up, looking up at him. She was the shortest in the family, thus she had to look up every time. "I didn't wait long, I'm doing just fine Alexi" Nadia said with a grin and held onto his arm. "Let's walk around the garden then" She said happily, gently pulling him along as they walked. "The garden sure is pretty huh.." Nadia said, her small hands still holding onto his arm as she looked around the gardens, happily looking at the prized plants that the gardeners grew and the fountain that was built there.

Mystearica finished cleaning the potatoes and walked to the garden where she saw the sibblings
"they look cute together" she thought and walked behind them

Aleksandr felt his cheeks burning as Nadia grabbed him in such a friendly manner, "I'm glad you were not waiting long," he managed to spill from his mouth as she dragged him in a direction around the garden, "It is a nice garden," he let out a small, sheepish laugh, feeling the light hairs on his back rise as his sister forced a bond between them.
She was so tiny and fragile compared to him. He wasn't sure how there could be such height differences in the family, but it did not matter. He did not mind them. He actually enjoyed them. She was so small, pulling his large body (in comparison to hers) around the garden.
He her hands were small and tiny. He removed her hands from his arm and held one in his hand, "Is it alright if we walk like this?" His voice was deep, and compassionate. They were siblings after all. What was wrong with them holding hands?

Elise brought the potatoes back to the kitchen and prepared the potato soup to simmer in a cauldron above the fire. She started baking bread and setting it out to cool
