Katherine had been praying for the cleansing of England, that the evil cloud known as Anne Boleyn would leave and all would be restored, when Lady Emma came in. She stood up and walked away from her prie deau and smiled.

"Lady Emma. How do you fare?"

Elizabeth came in Her Majesty's room with a pitcher of warm water to wash Her Majesty's feet before she went to sleep. She curtsied and walked over to fill the basin. Once she was done, she went over to stand with Elena and waited till Her Majesty was ready for her.

With all of her ladies with her Katherine was exhausted from her emotional day. She spent most of it at her prie deau praying, beseeching God to bring tranquilty back to Englad and to return her to her rightful throne. She gets up and addresses her ladies.

"Lady Elizabeth, my feet are dreadfully sore this night so be gentle with them. Lady Elena, I would like the softest nightgown I own, so I can sleep comfortably. And Lady Emma, can you braid my hair so it doesn't become tangled whilst I sleep?"

"Thank you, Lady Elizabeth and Lady Elena. I am happy that during this hard time, I have some loyal friends about my person to make things easier and more comfortable."

Katherine gets up after having her feet washed. Her hands fumble at the front of her dress.

Elena had come to see her Queen. It was early morning but as promised she had planned to keep her updated with the events at court. Gently she tapped on the door.

Elena curtsied and shit the door quietly behind her.

Your Majesty, I hope that I am not disturbing you.

Elena waited until she had finished praying before speaking again.

The Queen smiled at Elena such innocence and concern from one so young lightened the Queens already heavy heart.....approaching her lady in waiting she clasped her hands over Elenas "I am quite well, thank you for asking..and how are you?"

I am glad to see your spirit not so beaten your majesty. I am well I have no news from court but as they say no news is good news something like that.

Elena said full of joyful spirit. It was not that long until Christmas season at court, but Elena would rather be here, celebrating the true religious meaning of the season.

I know that Mary you're princess, rightful heir to the throne is in good health and misses you just as much as you do her.

Elena gave a sympathetic look to be parted from your daughter must be hell on earth.

Katherine takes a seat by the fire and looks into the flames as Elena mentions her daughter princess Mary. .The mere mention of the princess stabs at her heart and brings tears to her eyes...

"I'm glad my daughter is in such good health ..yes it is hard to be parted from her..But I trust that God will bring us together again..Elena please read to me ..I find it soothes me"

Of course your majesty.

Elena went and picked up a book flicking through the pages. She took her seat opposite the queen warming her feet.

Sonnets of penned passions, 
Sing of love's sweet song, 
Lingering memories of love, 
Golden days gone wrong. 

Our hearts desired nothing, 
But a time for me and you, 
Golden days, with no reality, 
Our love we thought so true. 

Like sonnets penned in scarlet, 
Worn pages, now pink in hue, 
Our love was lost forever, 
But once it was so true. 

But those golden days, 
In my heart are always true, 
For they are penned in sonnets, 
Golden days of me and you.

Katherine stares at the flames in the fire as Elena reads the passage, such softness in the tone of her voice brings the words alive and a stab of tears to her eyes...when Elena finishes Katherine sighs then looks to Elena..

"You read so beautifully Elena..The words reminded me of His Majesty and me at the beginning of our life together...so young and in love I truly believe with my whole heart that God will bring us back to each other and our daughter too.."

Elena reached forward squeezing her hand.

You are still queen and always will be. People are working hard for you and Mary to be reunited. The king is bewitched, amoured in a love that is not right with no bound or duty. Lust, desire, greed can make us all do very stupid things all the strings are in the hands of the concubine he is just the puppet for her a play thing if you were.

"Bless you Elena, your loyalty is reassuring to me, I only wish His Majesty would speak with me so he would know my depth of love for him. I pray God shows him the mistakes he is making. All those advisors around him and they poison his mind also. Elena, please can you send word to Sir Thomas Moore and ask him to come see me please?"

Elena thought of all those council men of the kings. Since Elena was last at court the king had probably changed them.

Always loyal but the king has Charles Brandon, duke of Suffolk. He would never try to poison the king's mind. I shall write to him straight away your Majesty.

Setting down her book Elena wrote a hastily note to Sir Thomas More. She didn't enquire as to what is was about and quickly sent it of with a pageboy.

"Bless you Elena, you bring me such comfort at a time when there is none.."

Katherine closes her eyes and tears pick in the corners..The heaviness in heart is overwhelming but she knows she must stay strong for a little while longer..
