After her classes, Aristia flopped down on her bed. Her shoulders were still a bit stiff from etiquette class, and her feet hurt a bit from dance class.
Adeline came over and started to massage her stiff shoulders.
Aristia sighed in satisfaction as she felt her stiff nerves loosen up and relax. After a while, she took a deep breath and rolled over. "Thank you, Linny." After she had rested enough, she got up.
"Time to get down to business. Literally." She turned to Adeline. "Linny, get changed. We're heading out. Tell Owen."
Adeline nodded and left to carry out her orders. She came back not long after putting on commoner clothes. She went into Aristia's wardrobe and came out carrying a beige dress and coat.
Adeline helped her wear the dress and cloak, and they headed out of her room.
They met Owen on the way out of the palace.
"Everything is ready, princess." Owen informed, coming to stand in front of her.
"Good. Did you inform my mother?" Aristia asked.
