The banquet was fast approaching, mere three days left, and within this time. The whole Castle was on a running sprint. Maids rolled from one place to another In hurried movements and when they made mistakes, they would be cautioned by their head.
This particular period has been very lonely for Hermione, she did not even have the chance to take her leisure stroll in the garden as usual because every corner was under preparation and decorations.
And since that night, she had not seen Servyn either. She heard from some of the maids that it was a grand banquet that the King planned for his Son's success and arrival.
So it was fair to speculate that he was busy since he was the center of the celebration. Only a few chances were she would get to see him, not even at meal times.
