A young girl chases after her older brother outside a small cabin in a meadow. He calls for her to hurry up as a gilt carriage appears on the road leading to the cabin. Both children rush to meet the procession as it reaches their garden gates.
The girl's mother and father step outside their cheerful wooden house just as another woman exists the carriage. The woman in her beautiful lilac traveling gown with mother of pearl buttons smiles and waves, rushing to hug the girl's parents. Her tall, dark skinned husband steps out after her with a shy polite nod that makes his crown shine.
The woman is the mirror image of her mother and they talk excitedly in the garden. Her father wraps his arms around her mother, kissing her cheek softly. Her brother joins them to tell them of fish he caught the day before. The girl sits happily by the fence just listening the stories the woman brings from the palace. It sounds like such a strange but wonderful place. But not as wonderful as the place her mother sometimes speaks of. The place so different from this one.
Someday the girl wants to visit that place.
