Eustace looked up as a silence occured. A lady entered and everyone seemed to hold their breath for a moment, then it buzzed with speculations.
What is going on? he asked a nearby couturier. What did she do?
She wears purple! A colour only restricted to members of the Royal Family!
Eustace raised an eyebrow and watched her in silence, bowing slightly as she passed him by. So...... this is Lady Anne, he thought. As a resident of an exotic country himself he recognized her fire, the spirit in her exotic appearance. She looked so different from all English roses. He smiled vaguely and then frowned. A mighty opponent to Queen Katherine!

Passing in the great hall with her daughter, holding her hand in hers, Emilie is amazed as she see her friend Anne appearing, wearing a purple dress ! And at her air, she can see that it isn't a mistake in the choice of her dress colour, but a daring and brave way to show to everyone what she is to become, what she is called to be by the king. She hear some murmurs all around them, even some people seem outraged, she isn't surprised, thinking that anyway the changements to come, that she personally approve and wish, will happen, even if people refuse that, it will happen, soon. She smile broadly, looking admirative at her friend, finding that she yet look like a queen very much and will be a stunning queen some day.

Watches Anne come in wearing the royal colour of purple feeling sick to my stomach, every day she closer to being my step mother, until that day I will look after my sister and my step mother who is the rightful Queen. I look away as I hear the hall go quiet and the whispers start. I look back out of the window.

Anne walked into the hall seeing it full of people she gulped a little, she wondered why everybody was whispering when she saw a Lady in purple leave, immediately she took to it that she was the Queen..She looked around the room admiring the details and a small smile graced her lips.

Looking at Anne, amazed by her regal posture, Emilie's is surprised as she hear what Anne tell to Katerine's spanish ladies, her eyes getting wider. Then she giggle, a glint of mischief in her eyes, admirative that Anne have dare to tell that out loudly, thinking that sometimes, she wish so too because herself dislike spaniards very much since her childhood, they are France's , her birth country, worse ennemies, but herself would never dare to tell so out loudly. She hear her daughter standing by her side giggle with her, even if the little girl obviously don't understand what's happening.

Henry entered the great hall, looked around and saw the lady Anne Boleyn entering the room, dressed in regal purple. He stood back with the rest of the crowd, unsure of what exactly was going on. It was the first time he'd seen the king's new favorite, Lady Anne. She was very beautiful and he could see why she was now King Henry's new love interest. Hearing what she said to one of Katherine's ladies, Henry's eyes nearly bugged out of his head. He wondered what King Henry would say if he found out about this.
Dugan looked up; and saw Lady Anne Boleyn enter. And, he watched her closely, and grew curious. "What is she doing," he asked himself. And, nearly laughed out loud but, held his laughter. He could not believe she just said that. This was just priceless!

Lady Misseldon can not believe what she see. Lady Anne begrimed the honour of the Queen. Why King Henry take her to his mistress. Lady Anne is a nothing she have no titles and her discipline is impossible.
Lady Misseldon sit with Anne Stanhope at the tabele and wisperd " I will know what say the King for that " !

I smiled widely at Anne Boleyn's antics, what entertainment she was providing us all! I couldn't help but admire her defiance and her strong will. 'She is Queen in al but name now, I don't blame her!'

Emilie smile in hearing a sentence rather favourable to Anne among all lthe hostiles ones, from a female voice, she look around and see a brown haired lady talking with another lady, she hesitate, then step closer to her, holding her daughter's hand in hers and answer her with a enthousiast tone.
I don't blame her either, she is indeed our queen in everything but titte and you will see that some day, before long, she will be our official queen.
She giggle.
I have serve Katherine years ago, at the period where lady Anne did so too and I must tell it's probably the more boring thing I ever did !
Her smile get wider, by her side, her little girl smile while looking to Anne, seeming to start to to understand what's about, then Emilie, realize that she hadn't introduce herself, she add.
Oh, by the way, I am lady Emilie, countess of Fontanay. And one of Anne's best friends.

Norfolk entered the Great Hall and noticed Anne was dressed in purple. He grinned at himself, well-done, my niece, let them know who is in charge, now!
As he approached, he heard her words about the Spaniards and he frowned deeply. He bridged the distance and took her arm, smiling friendly but speaking soft and strongly. I don't think that was wise to do, dear niece, even though I agree with you. Don't make more enemies as necessary... I think the king won't like it. He looked at her with concern though he still smiled.

I stared at this woman speechless. I I was about to tell this woman to stop listening to other people's conversations when she said something which pleased me, 'Oh you are, are you? Would you do me the honour of introducing me to her, I would love to serve her when she is Queen.' I said convincingly. 'I am Lady Anne Stanhope, Bethrothed to Edward Seymour and this is my dear friend lady ursula Misseldon.'

Emilie, looking at lady Stanhope, harden up a bit in seeing her glance that don't seem very friendly, in fact at first, the woman seem about to tell her something of unpleasant. As she talk about her link to Anne, she can see the air on the woman's face changing, she feel annoyed in hearing her asking, it's seem calculative to her and Emilie isn't woman to let anyone use her, in more she hear that the woman would try to use her dear friend Anne also, so she answer her on a neutral tone, politely, without the softness and warmess that emanate from her voice, glance and air usually.
I think that if you really want to serve her when she will be queen, you would have better to introduce yourself to her.
In her mind, she add "like a big girl", finding the asking a bit childish, but without telling it outloudly, avoiding to show her true feelings like with all the people in whom she feel that she can't rely on. Then she turn her back to them and step away from them, joining a more calm area of the room, still holding her daughter's hand in hers, she sat on a chair and the little girl sat by her side and both observe what's happening around, thinking that Seymour family is trying very hard to rise themself at court and from Stanhope woman's behaviour, she deduct that they want to take advantage of Anne Boleyn's rising for rise themself.
