The Great Hall

smiles

no i wanted you to stay but i do not want to worry Elizabeth if i do not know her myself.

Do not worry, my lady. Everything is under control, you will certainly meet one day. Now excuse me, lady Guinevere as I should be going... I hope to see you soon.
Smiled again looking into her eyes, nodded and bowed kindly. Then turned around and left the hall.

I enter the Great Hall as night begins to fall. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my mind knowing that my brothers knew wife is in a stable condition-I do so hope she will be well.

As I enter the hall I smile kindly at courtiers I know and then proceed a little further into the hall. I stand by the dancers hoping someone may ask me to dance...

Arthur laughed thinking of his Uncle Markus. The man had himself banished from court again. He looked up and saw a tall blonde woman. Arthur decided to ask her to dance. He walked over to her and bowed his head. "Hello, my lady. Would you care to dance," he asked her.

I smile warmly as an attractive man approaches me and curtsy a little,"My lord..."
As he asks me to dance I smile and take his hand as I feel my heart beat a little faster,"It would be a pleasure...I am Elizabeth Craven..."

walks into the Grand Hall wishing i could escape but i can not i have to remain at court, steps inside the hall takes a glass of wine and carries it around.

After spending some time in my chambers, i decided to venture out to the Great Hall and get some food and see what was going on. I took a goblet of wine and glanced around. No one in particular took my interest so walked around to see if I could find Lizzie.

Lizzie was tired to being trapped in her room all day. She wanted to get out and explore the palace since it was so different from the ones in France. She put on her favorite blue dress and fixed her hair slightly. She walked down the hall from her room and ended up at the entrance of the Great Hall. She walked in and saw many people dancing, eating, and just having fun. She grabbed a goblet of wine and began to walk around.

As I continued to walk around, a beautiful blond woman caught my eye. I had to meet her, so I walked over and introduced myself.
"Hello my lady I couldn't help but notice your beauty from across the room. Are you new here at court?" I asked with a smile.

Arthur smiled happily at her. "It is such a pleasure to meet you," he said to her. The Earl of Cornwall looked her over, and smiled happily. She was very, very pretty. "I am glad to have met you," he said to her.

I take his hand and we walk into the middle of the floor. I smile warmly at him as the musicians pluck on the strings of their lutes and beautiful music drifts through the air.

I curtsy in accordance with the dance,"I am glad to have met you too...so tell me about yourself my lord..."

watches silently from where i stand i move to the windows look out seeing how cold and dark it is sits on the ledge ignoring the music and chatting thats going on around me. grabs a passing waiter and picks up a drink.

Lizzie continued to walk around the room watching the dancing and chatting carrying on. She smiled at a few ladies that she has met since her move here to England. She noticed a young handsome man was looking at her. She noticed that it was one of the Seymour brothers. She had been here long enough to learn about the Seymour family. She looked away and pretended she hadn't noticed him. Leaning against one of the tables she continued to watch everyone enjoying the nights music and food. And then she heard a voice beside her. As she turned she dropped into a small curtsy. My Lord.

Although, Lizzie was quit admired by his comment about her beauty. She was always told back in France that she was a beauty mostly because resembles her mother. She smiled to him and nodded her head. I thank you my lord for that lovely comment. And yes i am new at court. I just recently moved here at my fathers request.

I admired her and could not help but smile. "May have the pleasure of knowing your name?" I was betting myself that she had an exquisite name.

Lizzie looked back out into the crowd as she took another sip of wine. She looked back to him as he asked her what her name was. I am Madeline Bouvier and i come from France. Lizzie said without skipping a beat. And may i ask what your name is my lord?

I knew her name was unique. I smiled. "I'm Thomas Seymour, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance my lady" I said as I took her hand and kissed it.

Arthur grinned. She wanted tot know more about him? Hmm....where to start. "Well," he continued,"my story is I guess....er sad in a way. I had been married but, she had an affair with my best friend, and they committed suicide."

Leaving my room for the day I make my way towards the great hall to mingle with others and enjoy my time here now that I have arrived at court.

As I begin the dance and take his hand I smile. The musicians play their instruments and the courtiers dance beautifully. I blush a little under his gaze but still smile happily...

However I begin to frown as he tells his story,"I am...I am so sorry my lord."

Edward entered the great hall after a long day. He took a goblet of wine and then began to walk through the great hall-he spotted his sister with a man. He nodded at the both and then stood by the dancing courtiers...

Edward turned his head as he heard a clatter. He noticed a woman looking away clearing trying to hide-he then smirked as he realised it was Nan Saville who was looking away,"My Lady Saville,"he said in a deep tone, sipping on his wine.

He smiled kindly,"Were you hiding from me, my lady"he asked a little unsure of her behaviour.
