Chapter 7

Princess Eries sat at the dining table with her father, King Aston, for breakfast. She was faintly wondering where her sister Millerna was. It wasn't like her to miss breakfast.
"Sister! Father!" Millerna's voice called, as the doors flew open and Princess Millerna dashed in. Millerna made her way to her seat, kissing her father's cheek as she passed. Today, Millerna wore a half-dress of a violet color with black tights. Her blond hair was braided back and held with a violet ribbon. As she sat, she rang a bell and a servant came in with a tray; Millerna's breakfast on it. Millerna was glowing: in her hand was an envelope. "Oh you'll never guess!" Millerna gushed.
Eries herself was dressed in colors of sky blue and cream. Her blond- gray hair was loose today, as she politely dabbed at her lips. "Good morning to you too, Millerna," Eries half-smirked. She never could stay solemn when her sister radiated her optimism. King Aston was mildly interested, dressed in his usual noble robes; today burgundy and blue.
Millerna took a sip of her juice before reading out loud the message. " To the Princess Eries and Princess Millerna. You are cordially invited to the celebration of the finished construction of the kingdom of Fanelia. A festival is being thrown for all those who rejoice in its conclusion." The date was written also on there as well, and well wishes. Millerna looked up after reading those words to her audience. "Oh, please, please father, can we go? Van wants us to come," she begged. "Millerna, your breakfast is getting cold," Aston replied with a sip of his wine. Eries hid a smile behind her napkin. "Oh don't change the subject, Father!" Millerna cried, exasperated. Aston rolled his eyes and mumbled under his breath, " Fine, Go. I know if I'd say no you'd pester and glower at me until I gave in."
Millerna made a noise of triumph and finally started on her breakfast. "I can't wait to go!"
