"Lady Mira..."
•Elaina's eyes snap open, her mouth open slightly as she gasps in the air that seemed to escape her.
Sitting up slowly, catching her breath. Elaina's eyes glance around the room carefully. Taking in details of the unfamiliar room that she was in.
The room was decorated with all sorts of flowers, as books scattered all over the floor. The bed was in the center of it all, as her sheets were creamy white with little patterns of roses decorating it.
The room had looked like a magical garden, something out from a fairytale.
A soft knock startles her out of her gaze. A sweet voice calls out a name from behind the door.
"Lady Mira, it's Mary, I've come to help you bathe and prepare for the tournament today,"
Elaina's brows furrow in confusion. Who is Lady Mira? Another set of knocking starts, as the woman— Mary requests to come in again.
"C-Come in," Elaina stutters, her voice soothe like honey.
Elaina's eyes widen a bit as she touches her throat. Her voice had gotten softer, yet low.
Mary walks into the room with a bright smile on her face as her eyes land on her Lady waiting in bed.
"Lady Mira, we must hurry, your father would like you to meet the Prince and her majesty as quickly as possible!" Mary claims with excitement.
"The...Prince? I'm sorry, Mary. But I'm not sure I understand what's going on," Elaina said, looking at the maid in confusion.
Mary giggles at her words, finding it amusing that her Lady was jesting with her.
"Lady Mira—"
"Mira?" Elaina cuts her off, not understanding why she was being called Mira.
"My lady, have you gotten lost in your stories again? You know how your father dislikes them. No worries, I shall never tell him," Mary says with a smile, before walking toward Elaina and pulling her out of bed.
Before Elaina could protest, she was dragged out of bed. Glancing to her right a mirror stood, a glimpse of herself was shown.
Elaina's eyes widened once more, startled at the sight of her image. That was not her...Or at least it didn't really look like her.
No, the woman in the mirror had her face and body. Yet, her eyes were the deepest shade of green and her hair a much brighter brown.
"Right, now let's get you ready!"
Once Mary was done preparing her, the maid had dressed Elaina in a long silky purple dress, the sleeves were short and adorned in white. Lily flowers decorated at the hems, and a ruby sewed in the middle of the chest.
