Anastasia shook her head lightly when he replied. She then looked at the guard that he had chose to watch her before she closed the door. She walked over to Gerald and curtsied to him. He clapped, "Wonderful, wonderful, not too deep, not too shallow. You will be a Princess yet, Princess."

She smiled and sat at the table he had set up for her. It seemed to have enough silverware for an entire family but it all sat in front of her. Gerald went through the task of telling her what each one did and when they were used, how to distinguish them from the others and so on. It was quite the task to remain focused and present at the table. It was just sooo boring. She would have prefered to be on Gale and racing with Samsul. She smiled softly, it seemed even in her daydreams, she couldn't be free to be alone. She sighed and focused back to the task at hand, all be it boring.

She stood from her chair after her lesson and stretched. Gerald smiled, "Very good, Princess. I will see you tomorrow for more learning. Finish off those books I gave you, would you."

She nodded and left the room, the knight following her. She sighed again and walked down the halls aimlessly, not sure what to do.
