"I agree, it is sad, but it is nice to have someone understand how difficult it is," she said, looking tenderly at him. "Yes, I am enjoying this court very much! The parks are beautiful, the palace is exquisite, and the people are very courteous. Present company included of course." She noticed him looking at her hands and placed her left one on his, there was no ring upon it.

Catherine walked into the hall and she saw many people talking and sighed a little, she hardly knew anybody at court. She clutched her hands at the front of her dress and wandered about in her own thoughts.

I saunter into the great hall seeing new faces, old faces, beautiful women of course. Smiling I am on my old stomping grounds again. Then I see an old friend Anthony Knivert, I go up to him and give him a playful slap on the back.
"How are you old friend?"

When she spoke I noticed she moved her hand and I saw there was no ring on it. I smiled in relief. "Yes, Whitehall is a very beautiful palace, although I prefer Hampton court. His majesty likes to spend the cooler seasons there." I said noticing she had her attention on me. "What's Bavaria like? I've never been there before."

"Oh Bavaria is a beautiful place, there are lots of very old castles, like from a fairy tale. And there are so many forests, and the weather is perfect, warm in the summer and snowy in winter. You should visit, I think you would like it." She was pleased he took such an interest in her. "I like talking with you, my lord. I bet any one of these ladies would love to be in my place. You are very handsome," she smiled, her eyes shining, She had noticed ladies passing by giving him glances and knew she was envied.

While talking with Thomas, Charlotte glanced across the room and thought she saw Sir Anthony looking her way. He did not look pleased and went back to his conversation with another gentleman. Sipping the rest of her wine she turned attention to Thomas and wondered if perhaps Anthony was jealous.

Jane entered the great hall, she had saw the other hall but this hall was just as marvelous as the other, she took a goblet of wine and took a sip from it as she moved about looking at the lovely atmosphere, she hadn't saw Nan in a while and it kind of confused her but she was fine with it, maybe she needed space. She put both her hands around her goblet and kept walking whilst looking at the marvelous view around her.

She smiled sweetly at him, eager for him to say yes so she could see him again.
