The tablewares clattered and a woman's voice echoed, "Do you think you can show up to our masters acting like that?"
The butler knocked and the reprimanded servant sighed in relief, "Mary, this is the new servant. His Grace ordered that she should be taught until she's ready to serve the young lady." He bowed and left.
