The Lost Dynasty

Chapter 5

Kyda was following the tails of the Empress and her loyal entourage, not daring to speak.

It was probably for the best.

Her converse hightops caused a loud eerie squeaky sound on the marble floor. The troop of high-status women halted in their tracks and faced the odd one out, including the Empress herself.

Kyda froze on the spot.

They were just as judgemental as the non-biological aunties back home in her time. Kyda didn't know how to defuse the tension so she did what she thought a person would do.

She laughed

She laughed awkwardly

Their faces were like statues, their expressions haven't changed.

"These shoes huh?... comfy but.... yea" she didn't know how to finish the sentence and her face was so red that it could be mistaken for sunburn. The Empress scanned her appearance from top to bottom "Bring her something suitable to wear" she asked one of the ladies and they gave her the novelty head bow.

Kyda began to follow them yet again feeling outcasted.

Even though they look the same and follow the same belief.

They were completely different.

It's definitely not just a time or age gap.

They made it to a resplendent bedroom. The large circular bed with a gold structured frame was in the centre of the room with a dome shaped ceiling above it with mosaics covering the whole ceiling and collecting from the orange sunset that was shining in. On one side there was an outstanding large mirror that took up almost half of the wall. On the other side of the room there was a gorgeous looking parrots, golden pheasants, hummingbirds, and finches in a ginormous cage, possible bigger than the cages at the zoo. With many tropical and exotic plants around it giving out a rainforest atmosphere.

As the gentle breeze played with the silk curtains, bringing the room together.

"This is your room" the Empress gave her a light smile at her "Amita, come forward" a female around her age came forward and removed her dupatta from her face and face Kyda.

When they faced each other Kyda couldn't stop admiring her?

She was pretty.

Especially with her Bambi like eyes.

"Hi I'm Kyda" she was quite envy of her appearance. The Empress continued "She will be your handmaiden, anything you need or anything that needs to be done, please allow her perform her duties".

Kyda nodded to the Empress and gave her a nodded bow "shukriya".

(Translation: thank you)

The Empress and the royal entourage left and Kyda sighed in relief as she intended her body dropped from its tension. Amita giggles softly to herself as she used on hand to cover her mouth.

Jeez she so cute

"I understand the difficulty. I too struggle with the posture myself" Amita reinsured.

As she came forwards with a baby powder blue garara with gold detail, accompanied with a dupatta. "I thought light pastel colours will suit you" Amita commented.

Kyda stared at the clothes.

They were beautiful, just gorgeous but it was different to what the others were wearing.

Bright

Bold

Vibrant

Kyda wanted to fit it but she was the abnormal mismatch to their puzzle. It was the same problem back at home,
