As the sun set, its golden light bathed the city while carriages made their way to the castle. Dust billowed from the hooves of horses as they clattered along the cobblestone path, their sounds reverberating through the air. Spectators stopped to admire the procession, the rhythmic clattering filling their ears.The kingdom's gates opened wide as Kamaria's entourage approached, granting them access. Within the carriage, they marveled at the kingdom's grandeur, eagerly anticipating the upcoming festivities.
The Royal Family emerged to greet the Queen of Scotland at twilight. King Henry stood regally on the marble steps, clad in his finest garments and jewels, seeking to captivate his beloved, Diana De Poitiers, who attended the event. With a respectful bow, he welcomed her, then proceeded to join the assembly outside the kingdom's walls.
The ladies-in-waiting stepped out of the carriages one by one, gazing in awe at the castle they hadn't seen since their youth. Their eyes shone with wonder as they beheld the grandeur of the castle, once their home. Filled with nostalgia and happiness, they savored the thought of their return.
The sound of horses' hooves and horns broke the silence of the castle, catching the attention of the four ladies-in-waiting. They quickly turned to observe the new carriages arriving on the castle grounds. As the carriages entered through the gates, the ladies watched in amazement, the noise of hooves and horns echoing around them.
The carriages, lavishly decorated, were pulled by four white horses, their manes and tack sparkling in the sunlight.
Ananya, beaming with joy, cried out as she spotted the carriage of the brown-skinned queen, "Look, there's Maria," pointing her out to the others.
Kamaria, the youthful queen, stood on the carriage steps, surrounded by Kingguards whose capes billowed in the wind, the sunlight glinting off their swords and armor. As she stepped down, the horseback riders reached out to her, and she accepted their hands with elegance.
Maria looked up at the beautiful blue sky, scattered with white clouds that looked like cotton candy. She took a deep breath and smiled, and her heart swelled with contentment and joy.
The young Scottish girl ran towards her friends, her face aglow with happiness as she gave them a warm embrace. Maria hugged each one, her eyes sparkling with joy. Deeply missing her friends, she was ecstatic about their reunion. "Maria! We've missed you so much," one of the girls cried out as they hugged her, remarking on how much she had grown.
Kamaria's gaze met each of her companions', bringing a surge of joy and gratitude. Releasing the embrace, her smile widened in admiration. She savored the moment, thankful for the presence of such remarkable women.
"Yelena, Zahria, Adara! How wonderful it is to see you," Kamaria burst out. "Ananya, we're reunited at last." Maria took Ananya's hands, giving them a soft squeeze. "You've all blossomed into such elegant ladies."
