"Your grace, welcome to the palace. His majesty is waiting for you." a bunch of puppets bowed their heads as they saw me coming.
But before I could enter, they frowned, "my lady, we have sufficient staff to serve you. The royal palace did not allow other servants to enter." as if i did not know the rules. That man was a mixture of crazy and fearful person, who will not even trust his shadow when it comes to his life.
"He is not a servant. He is my partner for dinner. Couples are allowed in the royal palace, right?" I have never thought that those puppets could have so many emotions on their faces as they looked at me and then at the man.. What was his name?!
"Your grace seems to be in a mood of humor.. haha." They laughed awkwardly suddenly and started looking at each other and then at me, making me frown.
"Do you think I have so much leisure time that I will stand at the entrance and make jokes with the servants?" I asked in a sharp tone and they flinched.
