Analia made her way to her chambers through the grand halls of the palace, passing women who were making their way to the banquet hall in their magnificent ball gowns. She nodded her head respectfully as she passed them.

She could not deny her nerves for her fathers return. He was her only real family after all and his approval meant the world to her.

"Lady Analia!"

She turned as a voice called out to her and interrupting her thoughts, to find a cheerful looking Thor running to catch up with her.

"Thor!" She replied as he wrapped her in a tight hug and spun her off the ground.

"Shouldn't you be ready by now?"
He asked with a smirk on his lips as he noticed her armour.

"What ever do you mean?" Analia questioned as she gripped her dagger motioning to the armour she was wearing and spun around, showing it off.

"Am I not ready?"

The Prince chuckled, bowing at her respectfully, taking her hand in his placing a kiss onto it.

"I will see you at the banquet, lady Analia."

She nodded her head and the two parted ways. When Analia reached her chambers she began getting ready. She bathed, washing the tough training of the day off of her. She chose a dazzling azure dress that greatly complimented her enchanting eyes and pulled the front pieces of her hair back.
After putting on some light makeup, she chose a gold jewellery set gifted to her by her father and made her way to the banquet hall.

The grand doors opened upon her arrival and a guard announced her arrival.

"Lady Analia, of Asgard." His voice boomed.

She made her way to the table as the sound of people clapping echoed throughout the hall. She took her seat next to Sif, and across from Fandral, Volstagg and Hogan.

"Why, my Lady Analia, don't you look particularly lovely this evening."
Fandral exclaimed, receiving an eye roll from both Lady Sif and Analia.

"Thank you Fandral, always the charmer." Analia replied sarcastically while Fandral bowed his head.

"Where is the Lady Mackenna this evening? Will she be joining us?" She continued. Sif, Volstagg and Hogan erupted into laughter.

"She was....busy." Fandral replied in defeat. Analia chuckled, she was very quick witted which often landed her into trouble.

"With her betrothed?" A voice from behind her spoke. Analia turned as Loki took a seat beside her. His raven hair perfectly slicked back, his emerald eyes greatly complimented by his deep green attire.

"Ah cheer up Fandral, there are plenty more women in Asgard." Analia exclaimed. Her reassurance earning a smile from Fandral.

Loki leaned close to her and whispered, "You look beautiful this evening, I barely recognise you without your armour."

A smile made its way onto her lips as she lifted her dress slightly revealing a dagger securely fastened to her thigh.
Loki let out an unsurprised chuckle, shaking his head.

"You clean up quite nicely yourself my Prince." Analia replied, Loki smiled and sat back in his chair as Thor sat down across from them.

He greeted Sif and the warriors three whilst nodding his head at Analia, she nodded her head in return. Odin and Frigga's arrival was announced and the feast began.
