	Elizaveta gave a polite nod towards Mei as she spoke. She wondered if the woman had mistaken her words to mean something other than she had intended but with the incoming of people and the group that was forming she felt it was best to let such a thing go at that time. The two would get a chance to know each other better over the next three months and hopefully in that time they would get a better understanding of each other, which in turn would enable both of them to be able to fully understand the other. [color=a187be]"Very true, I hope over these next months we can further discuss the matter. I would adore to be able to pick your brain as it were on the topic as well as many others. I feel you could give me an insight that I am not yet privy to that could help my nation,"[/color] she said in a kind voice before giving another courteous nod to the princess. 

	Her eyes turned to her betrothed as he greeted the others as they came into the room and smiled gently before she looked away; though she still meant to speak to him later about what she had seen and ask him about it. Being alone with one that was not their betrothed or a relative in most nations could actually lead to a forced marriage, breaking off other ties, to save face or even the hint of impropriety. An older outlook by many nations but one that Elizaveta still held close to her heart. Her loyalty was to her country first. She would do nothing nor be associated with anything that could cause them embarrassment. Hopefully her betrothed would understand such sentiments. Her nation had fallen far and had a long way to go still before it was whole again and accepted by the rest of the nations fully, she was the lynch pin in assuring her empires future; she would jeopardize it for nothing. She owed her people everything for what they had endured. 

	Hearing Raven speak her attention was pulled from her thoughts and perked a brow at the suggestion. A slumber party? What was one supposed to do at a slumber party? She doubted it was to sleep. She had never attended one while she was younger, of course she hadn't. Who would she have shared such an evening with? Even though she was close to her employees children even they never felt comfortable enough to spend such time with her outside of the occasional game. There were no slumber parties growing up, no birthday parties, no exchange of gifts, no warm wishes. She spent her time learning the history and ways of her people. Even during holidays she was a figure head that had to lead processionals. The only family she had was her grandmother and the woman was anything but warm and comforting. Gifts were not given, saving the money of the crown and putting it towards the rebuilding of her nation. This was her first true event where real money was spent and it was only to ensure a marriage to help strengthen her nation. Everything revolved around her nation and her people. She did not know how a slumber party could do that but perhaps it would allow her to get to know the other princesses on a more personal level and that could help her nation and her people in the long run. 

	[color=a187be]"I would be most pleased to attend,"[/color] Elizaveta commented cordially towards their host. Was that how she was supposed to respond the invitation? She hoped so since there was not an RSVP card in which to send. [color=a187be]"Should I bring anything?"[/color] she asked gently as she stood there. Glancing over towards Sergi, she could see him making a note in his agenda. She hoped he would be able to fill her in on what was expected of her during this event at a later time when they were not surrounded by everyone.
