Princess Delphine Ainsley was awoken by her handmaiden, the royal princess was known for not being fond of the mornings yet her trusty handmaiden Lucille was always stern and a very good friend to the Princess.
As Delphine still lay sprawled across her bed, Lucille entered, paying no mind to the half conscious woman as she pushed the curtains and then the window open, the bright light from the sun entering and making the princess' eyes sting.
"Gah, Lucie," Delphine exclaimed, moving her hand up to her eyes to shield them from the sunlight, "Why must you do that?"
"Up,up, your highness," The woman smiled, "It's a beautiful day, no need for you to miss it," She turned from the window, placing her hand on Delphine's ankle that just hung out from under her covers and giving it a light shake.

Delphine now fully dressed, stepped out from behind the folding screen and into the view of the man who had treated her like a daughter since she moved to Port Royal.
