"My first question, please introduce yourself," said the princess, rolling up the scroll.
[Nanny Mercy wished internally, "Princess, why are you not behaving today? Please, Princess, spare us. Please do what Miss Diana said."]
Diana adjusted her throat to give Princess Shira a warning, making her body tremble. But the princess clenched the scroll and stood, in spite of the pressure.
"Please introduce yourself one by one," she said again, trying her best to keep her head straight.
The first slave candidate started, "I... I am from the city of Gilmount, Princess. Nice meeting you," he said, giving a sudden bow. Nothing elegant.
"Nice meeting you," said the princess, and immediately moved on. Only after that did the slave remember that he didn't tell his name yet. He screwed up the introduction part.
