Anastasia sighed opened her eyes again, "Yes... of course... Millie and Arabella have been laying out dress choices for me, for weeks... I'm just glad to be able to get this over with..."

She sat up and looked at Samsul, "I suppose I should turn in then," She whistled and Melor came bounding over to them as she stood. She walked back to her room and nodded to the taller man, "Good night, Samsul."

She walked into her room and closed the door behind her.

The next morning she was woken by Millie and Arabella practically pulling her out of bed. Millie smiled, "Today is the day, Anastasia."

She climbed out of bed and the two pulled her into the bathroom. They started with a bath then dressed her in a fine red dress. Then they did her hair, leaving it drapping over her shoulders. Then jewelery and makeup. Anastasia looked at herself in the mirror, it was amazing, how much she appeared like her mother. She, for the first time, looked at herself and could see a Queen. She could almost picture the crown on her head. Millie and Arabella smiled at her, "You look beautiful, Anastasia... Now, let's get you down to your coronation before they start without you," They teased, pushing her to the door.
