Oh, hush Ariel. You worry too much. I think the quiet is a nice change of pace. 

[laughs heartily]

You needn’t blush, your highness! I would have thought you more aware of the more secretive side of the courts. Why, even Modeste and Wynne have been known to...galavant about since Wynne was merely Modele’s squire. Although I do suppose that you often are too involved in your training. I know your father has kept you busy since you were just a welp. 

Who goes there? Show yourself!
