Sofia on the other hand was in Amber's room.
"Sofia, you're not going to wear that dreadful gown of yours are you?" Amber asked, gesturing to Sofia's everyday gown.
"Well...I was...but what do you suggest?" Sofia asked looking at Amber with her bright blue eyes.
Amber smiled and threw open the doors of her "closet", she walked in and picked one out. She handed it to Sofia, Sofia looked at it before looking back at Amber.
"But, this is your new gown." she said hesitantly.
"No, you wear it. I've got my other new ones." she said, handing the gown to Sofia.
"Thanks Amber." Sofia said, hugging her stepsister.

It was already the noon, the time when the two new employees arrived. The royal family sat in their thrones awaiting for their arrival. Meanwhile somewhere outside the gates of the palace, a woman with pale blonde hair and electric blue eyes, wearing an armor stands outside. After some time, she was about to walk in when a woman with paint stains all over her dress caught up with her, her hair was straight and is tied up in a bandana, she has slightly brown skin and and dark brown eyes.
"E-excuse me ma'am!" The woman with pale blonde hair stopped and looked at her.
"Yes, and what may I be of help?" she asked looking at the paint stained lady.
"Um, y-yes, I'm er...looking for the palace of Enchancia." she said shifting her things from one arm to another.
The woman looked at her with a blank expression before pointing to the doors behind them, "We're about to go in it." she said.
"Oh...Um...thank you." she said, looking down at her feet.
"What's your name?" the woman asked, she looked up, surprised.
"Er..Laura..." she said nervously, "A-and yours?"
The woman paused, halfway reaching for the door, "I am Lady Janice of the Dragon's Fire." she said looking at her companion.
"Nice to meet you." she said, holding her hand out to Janice. Janice looked at it for some time before taking it and shaking it.
"Same with you miss, now what say we meet the king?" she told Laura, Laura froze before nodding.
Janice raised her gloved hand to the door and knocked, they waited for a few seconds before the door slowly swung open.
"Welcome to Enchancia." a man with silver hair said, Janice nodded before walking in, her steps the measured steps of a soldier, behind her, Laura shuffled occasionally dropping her things and nervously picking it up just to drop it again.
Janice knelt down, when Laura got in front of the royal family, she bowed down.
"Y-your Majesties, it is an honor to meet you and be of your service." she said softly whiled Janice kept herself silent.
King Roland stood up and rested a hand on both their heads, "Lady Janice and Laura, we welcome you to our kingdom, Enchancia." he said to them. Laura kept her eyes downcast, this time, it was Janice's turn to speak.
"Thank you for your warm welcome your Highness." Janice said.
The king smiled and told them to rise, when they did, he told them that it was time for a celebration. All of the castle staff was present, starting from Bailleywick right down to Cedric. Everyone was having fun all except for the two new employees. Janice wants to join but she was trained to stay put and not to show her emotions while Laura has sidled off to the far end of the room where Cedric was hiding. She accidentally bumped into him, she looked shocked before apologizing.
"Oh my! I-I'm sorry...I didn't...I didn't see you..." she said, hurriedly picking up some of her things which are just some sheets of paper with some pencils and paintbrushes. Cedric rolled his eyes at her before walking off.
Sighing, Laura covered her face with paper and hid at the balcony. She felt someone looking at her, she snuck a peek before hiding again. It was Janice, she heard the clanking of her companion's armor and the sound of metal hitting marble.
"Why are you here instead of indoors?" she asked, Laura mumbled something. Janice nodded before standing up and walking off.
Laura took of the paper hiding her face and began scribbling on the piece of paper, when suddenly the wind took hold of it and sent it to who knows where.
A.N. What do you guys think? Is it good or what? I'd like to know.
