AYLETH
After Ayleth had bathed and changed, the maid knocked and asked if she wanted her hair dressed. She was about to agree when another knock sounded and they both turned.
Lady Trayn, Ayleth's first Lady in Waiting stood at the door, scanning the room before looking at Ayleth far more directly than she usually did.
"Herst, can you leave me and her Highness for a few moments, please?"
The maid glanced at Ayleth who nodded. "Of course, ma'am," she said, dropping a curtsey and trotting out the door, closing it behind her.
Ayleth dropped onto the bed, but sat straight and watched her closest Lady walk towards her, a strange look on her face. "What is it, Trayn?" she said.
Trayn scanned the room again, then walked over to sit on the bed next to her, both of them looking out the window where the bright morning sun blazing over the Castle gardens made the world look as if they shouldn't have a care.
