I have just settled in at French Court. Everythings so different now. My ladies decided to explore, but there's something I want to find first, something in my childhood chambers. I remember as a child, there was a secret brick I used to hide things in. One thing in particular, a beaded necklace. It was my favorite object as a girl, though I have since forgotten where it came from.
I make my way up the velvet red steps as I am clouded with memories of my childhood here. I make my way to the room and open the door. It creaks loudly and I cringe at the sound. Then I see Francis, my fiance. Not soon after, I am called out of old room, without my necklace. I return to my current chambers where I find servants putting away my things. I decide to leave them be, and I continue on down a lighted corridor, and into the main hall. (By this I mean room.) I see the King and the Queen of France talking to a girl.This girl is different though, almost familiar. She is wearing a dress from convent, but I don't remembet her from French Convent, and I would, I just arrived at French Court.
I look to Catherine, and she looks to me, a shocked look upon her face, then she looks to Francis, who has just arrived at my side.
"Who is she? Do you know her?" He asks.

"I don't believe I do." I whisper in reply.

The strange girl turns around and stares at Francis and I.
I know her, I can feel it, but I don't remember. Queen Catherine looks to me again and mouths "later". This must be serious.
