Anna White blinked. She was working by the castle entrance when the arrival of the first suitor was announced. A guard barked at her to answer the front doors. She sighed and did as she was told. She learned not to talk back or disobey orders a long time ago. She could not risk her job or anything after all. 


A guard on either side of her, she opened up the doors. She blinked when she saw the armored man there. She took a breath and paused when a guard spoke before she could do the same. 

-"Yes?"
She watched as the guard looked him up and down. 
-"A suitor I assume?"



Anna sighed. She took a step back and slowly made to leave. She tried to resume her work.
