"Alora, where are you going?" Lillian asked, her eyes briefly leaving the mirror as she adjusted her gown. Alora was dressed elegantly, clearly preparing for an event.
"Sister Lillian, it's my parents' wedding anniversary today. So, I'm going home to celebrate with them," Alora replied with a bright smile.
"I see. Enjoy the event, and please give my warm wishes to your parents," Lillian said, her tone warm yet slightly distracted. She walked past Alora, her thoughts seemingly elsewhere. Alora tilted her head, observing Lillian with concern. Over the past few days, Lillian had seemed distant and lost in some thoughts.
"Your Highness, we should make haste. Prince Magnus is awaiting you," Selvina reminded Alora, her tone gentle yet insistent.
"Hmm." Alora nodded, her smile fading slightly as she turned and walked ahead with Selvina.
