Julianna Strong was sitting in her room as she stitched the finishing parts of her wedding dress when a knock came from her door.
"Come in." She calls out, thinking it's one of her brothers.
"No greeting hug for me." a very familiar voice comes from the doorway. Julianna quickly put down her dress and ran towards the voice.
"Uncle Simon." She says quickly hugging him. "It's so good to see you. How have you been?" She asks hugging him tightly.
"I have been well. How are you. Are you well. Has anyone done anything to upset you." Simon asks.
Julianna laughs at Simons protective behavior. "I am well. Thank you for coming. It's so good to see you even if it's not in best circumstance." Julianna says hugging him again.
"Yes your wedding day. Where is your father. I want to have a word with him." Simon asks
"Either in his chamber, in a meeting or at the training grounds watching Harwin." Julianna tells him smiling. "Good now if you excuse me I have some words to tell him about this wedding.
Simon says kissing her cheek before leaving.
Julianna goes back to working on her dress when their was another knock on her door. "Come in." She calls out looking up towards the door. As the door opens a women with long black hair dressed in a grey dress.
"Alys?" Julianna questions as she makes her way towards the older women. Alys smiles at the young girl. "Hello Julianna. How are you?" She asks as she moves around Julianna's room before her eyes fell onto the wedding dress.
"Dose father know you are here?" Julianna questions while ignoring Alys own question.
"No he doesn't. In fact no one but you knows." She says lifting the dress from the seat. "What a beautiful dress." Alys states looking down at Julianna.
"Thank You." Julianna says smiling. Alys makes her way towards Julianna. Standing before Julianna Alys touches the necklace the adorn Julianna's neck a sadness flashes in her eyes for a second before going back to her normal steel gaze.
"I can not stay long, but I wish you well in your marriage. Goodbye.....sister." Alys says before leaving as quickly as she came. Julianna stood in the middle of her room rubbing her neck that seemed to have became stiff.
