"I glad to see you, Margaret." Victoria smiles as she hugs her young sister "I suppose you have been behaving like a young lady?"

"I have been trying sister."She said softly to her sister.

"Good." Victoria says she fixes Maggie's hair "You are not a girl but, not yet a woman." She looks into her eyes "You're a lady at court and others like you should act proper." Victoria puts a flower in her young sister's hair "I suppose your mother hired tutors to teach you necessary things that you need to know at court?"

"Yes sister she did."She said to her sister.

"Have they taught you a foreign language?" Victoria hopes that Maggie will never make the mistakes that Victoria made.

"Not yet sister."She said to her.

"What about music lessons?" Music is important when it comes to impressing others. "Pray tell me that they taught you to play something or sing."

"I can dance some."She said to her sister.

"Did you learn to play an instrument?" Victoria asks "I would want you to show your future husband how intelligent you are."

"I have not sister."She said thinking it was father's job to find her a husband not her sister's.

Victoria decided to give up on asking."Well, It's never too late to learn something." A lady at Margaret's age should know at least half of what Victoria was taught "At least you can dance." She smiles at her sister "Have gentlemen been asking for your hand?"

"No." She said to her sister.

"Strange. A lady of Brandon blood at your age will be asked by many men." Victoria says "I think I was the only teenager that some men were after."

"I am not like you sister." She said to her.

And I'm proud of you." Victoria puts her hands on her sister's china doll like face "Promise me one thing?"

"What is it sister?" She asked her sister.

Victoria gets down on her knees "When you do find the love of your life, wait until you are no longer a teenager to be married." She looks into her eyes and put her hands on her sisters arms "I beg of you, don't do what I did at your age."

"Are you not happy with your husband sister?" She asked her worried.

"Of course I'm happy." Victoria smiles "The only mistake was that I married him at a young age." She caresses her sister's face "Will you keep that promise?"

"I will sister."She said to her.

Victoria stands back up and hugs her.

She hugs her back.

"I assume father has told you about my daughters." Victoria asked

"Yes,"She said to her.

Richard arrived to England after a long travel by carriage. Eleanor was at his side. He was happy to be there with his wife, but actually also worried for her delicate health: the journey must be tiring for her.

We're finally arrived, my love. See? Our beloved England. Now you'll have finally rest in our Chambers..
