A soft song hums through the garden, wading into the nearby hallways and bringing a pleasant sound to one's ears. Loud clicks of metal echo against the stone floor as one of the guards marches from inside the castle into the garden proper. [b]"Excuse me, miss?"[/b] The man approached a young woman who was dressed in a fancy skirt and a button-up shirt. She slowly stopped playing the harp in her lap and looks up questioningly. [b]"Her Majesty is requesting your presence, along with the other commanders."[/b] With a bow of his head, he spun on his heels and marched out - assumingly to find the others.

Adelina pursed her lips softly and tied her small harp to her back - a clever way to carry it around she had come up with months ago. Brushing her hair back, she made way to the throne room. Unlike other monarchs, Queen Celosia only demanded few protocols from her knights and slightly less from her commanders, which meant that the commanders did not have to be properly dressed when in session with her. Of course, not that it mattered, since Adelina could easily arm herself with a simple whistle but it was more of a convenience for the other who could not.

Eventually, she found herself in the throne room, looking up at her queen. One of the protocols being that every subject under her command - knight or not - must bow before her in the throne room. So, she did, but with slight hesitation. Adelina had found herself fancying the queen of late, not of her free will, but by the grace of the older woman. She had made it a habit to admire the queen's beauty for just a moment before bowing as expected. She doubted the queen even noticed she had this small delay - in truth, she was extremely nervous in even telling a single soul about her feelings. [b][color=6ecff6]"Your Majesty.. you summoned me?"[/color][/b] She kept her knee bent and head bowed, until told to do otherwise. She was the first to arrive and it might be days or weeks before some of the others did as well - though some had be given prior notice. She suspected the queen wanted to try and get all the commanders in the room at roughly the same time.

[hider=OOC Notes]Feel free to arrive at the throne room after Adelina. The last line was just to explain that some of the knight commanders wouldn't show up, since not all slots are full.[/hider]
