Princess Chambers.
The castle, Springton.
**************
A couple of minutes later, the court was adjourned as they decided to watch for the prince's next move before they took decisive action against him and his kingdom. Alice had remained silent all through after getting what she wanted most.
She ran into her private chambers and shut the door. "Harley!" she called out. Her weight jumped and giggled as she waited. "Harley! You won't believe what happened" she squealed the minute her eyes fell on Harley.
"I already know my lady" the maid materialized from a section of the room holding up another dress for Alice to change into "You will be seeing Springton in spring" she said with a smile.
Alice just stood there, mouth wide open, in awe of how her little maid came to know of something that had just happened a couple of minutes ago. Half the time, she suspected that Harley was a witch in disguise because this was too much.
