"I heard that sir greand spilled some of your finest wine on his shirt isn't it true?" a person said laughing loudly as veranos sat in embarrassment.. Covering his face as he chuckled awkwardly. as the 4 maidens set up the long polished wooden lacquered table. The metal silverware clanging while being put down on the soft white napkin. "Ah there she is. Just in time!." looking around she saw cloud standing. He had a poised look, a half full wine bottle in his left hand as he stroked his glossy black hair backwards with his right. "such a showoff" luxia thought to herself. Veranos sat opposite of him waiting to feast on the giant golden brown turkey that was plated with pine leaves and slices of lemon and condiments on top. The brightly lit room, lit by the large golden chandelier, she could see 4 maidens. Their hands resting on top of each other. Luxia could see lanei standing next to zelana, with a plate in her hand resting on her thighs as she awaited if there was any order. In the corner of the big dining room stood a woman unbeknownst to luxia. She had red hair that reached her shoulders. Luxia didn't seem to think much of it but the intimidating look the woman gave as her brown eyes, almost seemingly black as the night glanced at luxia.
Looking back immediately as she jumped a little from the sudden glace she gave she looked around the room searching for cilliya. And sure enough next to the big arched window. Cilliya stood there. Waving like a happy child as she saw luxia. Luxia waved back and gave a bright smile back. Luxia glanced a little at the streetlights lighting up the streets of eulithia as she looked back again at cloud. His wine glass resting in his left hand as he stroked his hair back glamorously like a gentleman would. Though cloud seemed far from a real gentleman. Almost like a showoff. On the far right. Sat the king. Smiling slightly as he glanced at cloud. Luxia could tell that the king was not very amused by the stories cloud told. Almost as if he almost fell asleep. On the far left of the table sat elisia. She could tell that Elisia was quite optimistic. But she could feel he was hungry too as his stomach growled a little. His white hair ginting of the bright yellow light as he also took a sip out of his glass. "Here, have a seat." cloud offered as he pointed to the vacant seat next to him. Politely refusing luxia looked towards veranos as he was also eagerly waiting to nosh down the turkey laying in front of him. Veranos noticed luxia as he choked on his wine a little seemingly unexpecting luxia's arrival. "I'm so sorry. I did not expect you to come so soon.please have a seat next to me." Veranos said as he wiped away the remaining wine drops on his mustache. As she slowly took a seat. Neatly putting her dress between her legs she looked again towards cilliya. Both smiling at their sight. "Are you interested in some wine, young lady?."
Veranos joked as he poured a little red wine into luxia's wine glass." "thank you" luxia said as she took a little sip. The deep dark red liquid reflecting her face. Almost as clear as a mirror. "I hereby announce that we all can begin to nosh down on this incredible cooking made by zelena." the king said as he raised his glass. Not long after all of the participants raised their glass in unison too before eating away. Luxia could see the amused face of zelena, her smile widening as she felt a great feeling of honor while slightly bowing.
As the king picked up his silverware. Wanting to slice off a piece of the bird. The same maiden. Her red hair bobbing up and down as she walked over, leaned next to his face, picking up the silverware out of the king's hand deftly before saying. "A king should abide by etiquette. Is it not true?."
Her soft seducing voice. Freezing the king in place. Not knowing what to do.
As she sliced off a piece of the turkey, putting it on his plate before returning the silverware into his hands. "Please do not forget." she said as her hand stroked the arm of the king. Smiling slightly as she glanced towards luxia.
The room went silent. All shocked by the sudden event. Yet the king did not show any resentment. "Y-yeah.. I will not forget. Let's return to where we were shall we?." all nodding in agreement, the room went back to chatter and laughter as they all slowly forgot about what happened,
