Nobles, whether with they were with someone or alone, alike were trickling inside Abhainn's ballroom now as the welcoming celebration was just about to start. Fireworks lit up the sky above everyone as most were outside watching them while others were already inside to enjoy the musicians and dance, eat and drink or even mingle with other nobles such as themselves. There was a table with two chairs present as it was reserved for King Maddox and his future Queen, Julianna, of course. While people were expecting their sudden arrival and to see them, many stood in the doorway to get a glimpse of Julianna.[/center][hr][center][color=#FF6363][b][h1]Fᴜᴛᴜʀᴇ Qᴜᴇᴇɴ, Jᴜʟɪᴀɴɴᴀ Hᴀʀᴅɪɴ[/h1][/b][/color] [img]https://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5wm9jBCWa1rqjc2c.gif[/img] [color=#FF6363][b][u]Location;[/u][/b][/color] ► Her private chambers ► Abhainn's Ballroom ◄ [color=#FF6363][b][u]Interacting With;[/u][/b][/color] [color=#0048BA][b]Jaxton[/b][/color] - {[@Polaris North]}, [color=PaleGreen][b]Elaisse[/b][/color] - {[@FernStone]}[/center][hr][indent][indent] If she wasn't nervous before, she was definitely nervous now because she was actually going to have to mingle with people from Abhainn tonight. Luckily for her, if she makes herself looks like a fool or her nerves set in, she could just go to someone from Sliabh and calm down slightly. Julianna had sent her ladies in waiting to their private chambers to get ready for the upcoming ball but her eyes went over towards a box that was placed upon her bed. She started a soft trek over towards her bed then grazed her hand over the box as an envelope was attached on the box as she grabbed it and slowly opened it. The letter enclosed mentioned that inside the box was a gift from Maddox and it was for her to wear at the ball. Julianna kind of rolled her eyes as she sat the letter onto her nightstand beside her bed. She opened the box and seen the [url=http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3481/3183453743_4ed36f07d7.jpg][b]dress[/b][/url] then could not help but let out a soft gasp while her hands covered her mouth because she was honestly surprised about the dress. It was just her color and the designs upon the dress really intrigued her so. She picked up the dress now and examined it, just to make sure it wasn't a ploy or anything of that nature. While she was still examining the dress, her ears twitched as she heard a knock being placed upon your door. [color=#FF6363][b]"Enter."[/b][/color] She muttered as two handmaidens came inside and bowed towards out of respect before one of them spoke. [b]"My lady, we're here to get you prepped and ready for the ball."[/b] They both eyed her as she nodded her head then waved her hand for the handmaidens to do what they have to do. One drew her bath water as the other one came over towards her to help her undress. After a few minutes, she bathed and was out of the tub then dried off as she was now getting dressed by the handmaidens now. While she sat down in front of her vanity section, she turned her gaze towards her handmaidens as she smiled towards them. [color=#FF6363][b]"Go and see if my ladies in waiting need attending to. Tell them I sent you ladies to them."[/b][/color] The handmaidens bowed again as they left. Julianna turned back towards her vanity mirror as she stared at herself then started to put on her makeup, which was something matched her outfit. She let her hair stay tied up in a bun with a few curls draping just past her neck. Whenever she felt like she looked up to par of a future Queen, Julianna stood up and opened the doors that lead to her chambers as she seen two guards standing there as they both turned their gazes to grace upon her. [b]"You look lovely, my lady."[/b] One guard spoke as the other one nodded his head in agreement. Julianna could not help but offer them both a smile as she eyed them back. [color=#FF6363][b]"Thanks to you both. Mind escorting me towards the ballroom?"[/b][/color] [b]"That's what we're here for, my lady."[/b] The other guard finally spoke as they started to walk whenever she was fully out of her chambers now and closed the door then trailed behind the guards. The closer they got towards the ballroom, Julianna jumped slightly at the sound of fireworks popping high in the sky above them. [color=#FF6363][b]"Wait."[/b][/color] She muttered towards the guards as she walked over towards one of the windows, which opened and lead out to a balcony and her eyes were fixated along with memorized at the fireworks. [b]"Beautiful. Isn't it, my lady?"[/b] Another guard said as she turned towards them both and nodded her head. After looking up at the fireworks for a few more moments, she exhaled a sigh and turned heel to start their trek back up towards the ballroom after she closed the window. They turned one final corner and there she stood at the doorway now, everyone gazed upon her entrance and the musicians played a soft melody. Julianna gasped as all eyes were placed upon her as she mustered up a smile, which now plastered her face and curved among her lips. She started to walk further into the ballroom now with the two guards still surrounding her as people bowed whenever she past them. The guards walked Julianna all the way over towards the table where the two chairs were as a servant pulled out the smaller chair of the two to allow Julianna to sit upon, which she did. [color=#FF6363][b][i]'Comfortable.'[/i][/b][/color] She thought to herself as the guards stood behind her now and a servant brought her over a goblet of wine, which she thanked him for. Her eyes gazed upon the dance floor now then trailed over every single person present. Whenever her eyes were placed on someone from Sliabh, she'd offer them a wave of her hand with a smile. Before she actually started to mingle, she decided that it would be best to wait for her King, Maddox, since these were his people and he knew how to charm them. Julianna seen Jaxton and Elaisse then waved for them to come over towards her. She even eyed her brother, King Alister and his Queen, Mira then grabbed her goblet of wine and extended it out towards them as hello before she took a sip from it. Once Jaxton and Elaisse were in front of her, a smile couldn't help but form once again as she started to mutter towards them. [color=#FF6363][b]"Us, horses and the gardens. Tomorrow?"[/b][/color] She questioned towards the duo as she wondered to herself how her ladies in waiting and Aedan were enjoying the festivities or better yet, where her ladies in waiting or Aedan were in this moment of time. Her eyes went back towards the dancers that graced the dance floor while she waited for a response from either Jaxton or Elaisse.[/indent][/indent]
