One year later, Lord Andrew Charles Howard presents his second daughter, Lady Samhain Willemina Charlene Howard, Duchess of Clarence Territory to her cotillion like he did with his eldest daughter, Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane Howard in 2291.

Lady Karissa orders her a beautiful Victorian white dress to wear to her cotillion and she wears her hair done.  It is not as fancy as Lady Elizabeth's dress, but it is beautiful, lace, and Victorian style.

Lady Samhain is Duchess of Clarence Territory in the name of her great-great-great-grandfather, Lord Patrick William Howard and when Lord Andrew Charles escorts Lady Samhain, many eyes are upon her as Lord Andrew Charles presents his daughter to polite society.


Watching from the balcony is Lady Karissa and Lord Anthony who is the biggest critic of all. 

Lord Anthony watches his father escort his older sister into the ballroom and he tells his mother." "Gee, mom. There is not one gentleman here worthy of Lady Samhain."  

"Lord Anthony. I know there are at least three worthy young men here tonight.  I think your father stated that there is a Marquess here, and Two Earls with their sons." 

"Lord Anthony Grey, Marquess of Arington. His son is a jerk mom." Lord Anthony states.

"I believe that Lord Charles Churchill has a son, Lord Michael Churchill." Lady Karissa states, "He is Duke of Marlborough Territory"   and there is Lord Edward Seymour is still looking for bride and so is your second cousin once removed, Lord David William Beck II." 

"Lord Michael has sometime before he becomes Duke of Marlborough and Lord Edward Seymour won't become Duke of Somerset for some time." Lord Anthony state, "Come on mom, Lady Samhain is already Duchess of Clarence Territory." 

Lord Andrew Charles Howard, Duke of Norfolk Territory wearing his coronet walks into the ballroom with Lady Samhain and when he passes by all the father's and their sons and daughters bow or curtsy and he acknowledges all of them as he passes by.

Lady Karissa watching as Lord Andrew Charles escorts Lady Samhain around the ballroom and the presenter calls out " Lord Andrew Charles Howard, Duke of Norfolk Territory presenting his daughter, Lady Samhain Wilhelmina Charlene Howard, Duchess of Clarence Territory." 

Lord Anthony Grey, Marquess of Arlington walks up with his son, Lord Scott and he bows " Good Evening, Your Grace. May I present my son, Lord Scott." Lord Grey tells Lord Andrew Charles and Lady Samhain.

"Good evening, Lord Grey." Lord Andrew Charles tells him.

"Good evening, Your Grace, Lady Samhain." Lord Grey tells her.

"Good evening, Your Grace, Lord Grey." Lady Samhain answers.

"May I present my son, Lord Scott." Lord Grey asks Lady Samhain.

"Good evening, Lady Samhain." Lord Scott tells her.

"Good evening, Lord Grey." Lady Samhain answers.

"Would you do me the honor of dancing with me." Lord Scott asks Lady Samhain.

"I would be honored to dance with you." Lady Samhain tells him, and he offers her his arm, and they walk out onto the dance floor, and they lead the first dance of the evening and other young people join them.

Lord Grey and Lord Andrew Charles watch their two children dance together " Where is your good wife this evening?" Lord Grey asks.

"My Duchess and my son are on the balcony." Lord Andrew Charles tells him, and Lord Grey turns around and he bows to Lady Karissa, and she acknowledges it.
