+Milly Meets Eden+
((Library))



User ImageEden goes for a walk peacefully for the streets of the city thinking a little of all that had happened for some days, she hopes all the children are well, and a small but brilliant smile can see in her face while she goes for a walk. Suddenly she stops in front of a window, and she looks curious the exposed books.


Milly was still alittle lost in the events and was wandering down the street trying to figure out what she was going to do and how she was going to make new friends. Maybe if she went to somewhere popular to hang out she would find someone to talk with. She wasn't exactly paying attention as she kicked the back of her heel and fell face first on the sidewalk, "Ah!"

User ImageEden listens a small scream and a fall suddenly and she is rotated quickly to do a girl with the hair in amusing ponytails that she to fallen, and quickly trying not to laugh brings near her, " are you well !!" she ask to the new girl.


Milly rubbed her hands together as she turned red hearing that someone saw her fall, "I am well, just a little ditzy," she chuckled and look at Eden. "I'm really sorry, I didn't fall on you are anything?"

User ImageEden looks at Milly and she smiles brilliantly, she lengthens her a hand to help her to get up of the floor and she tells her, " Dont Worry, you don't fall in me, I'm looking in the windows this interesty books " she said while she point the windows.


Milly smiled and took her hand, "Oh, thank you." She looked at the window that was commented on, "what did you see? Anything fun?"

User Image" you are wellcome, I'm Eden", she smiles kindly and she centers her attention to the window and she comments distractedly "Interesting books of Magic History and some Fairies Tales " She smile again an turn toward the girls " I find a interesting Fairy tale in the library" she comments absent


Milly smiled at her introduction, "I'm Milly, it is nice to meet you." She turned to the window and looked at all the books, "Fairy tales and Magic history..." she looked back and forth, hoping a little as she tried to read all the titles, "A fairy tale at the library, what was it about?" she turned back smiling at Eden.

User Image" Nice to meet you, Milly" Eden smile and tell her about the book "A few days I went to the library and I found a very interesting tale, it was two children that got lost in a forest and they found a house of chocolate where a witch lived, the witch capture them and while the girl cleaned the witch fattened the boy to eat up him...." She tell the history a Milly . " I think the title is " Hansel and Grettel" "


User Image"Hansel and Gredel?" Milly thought for a moment before continuing, "What's that about? I know a story ,but is it scary?"

User ImageEden looks pensively at Milly," Well, is easily frightened a little but I like and I remember the time that I was lost in the forest a little" ,she smiles kindly, " of course I wasn't meett any witch, that gives fear" a chill travels her when she says it.

User Image"I would think a witch would be scary, but not as scary as some monster or something," Milly laughed a little, "Lost in the forest would be kind of fun if I knew it was safe. I will have to 'memeber that story name. I would like to read it."

User ImageEden smiles charmingly to Milly and nods, " To my I like a lot and it has a good end ", Eden puts a finger in her cheek, her expression when she is thinking, and she is happened a great idea, " Can you go with me to the Library?, please said yes" she said so delighted.


User ImageMilly pulled on one of her pig tails and twirled as she thought about the question, "I don't think I have anything to do..." she stopped and pointed her finger straight into the air. "Yes! I will go with you!" she seemed to be shouting.


User ImageEden smiles brilliantly and she screams, " Great" in that same instant she catches the hand of Milly and she runs toward the library, she's charmed that she will finally show her favorite place to somebody.



User ImageMilly grinned at Eden's excitement and stubbled as she tried to not trip over herself as she could to follow behind as her hand and new friend was leading the way, "This is going to be fun!"


User ImageWhen she hearing Milly, she even smiles more, " the library is incredible it is gigantic and it has many different books in it, I like a lot to read because in each book you find a different world where to be able to have a good time ". Saying this arrives in front to an enormous building of big columns and an enormous stairway, " Look the Library!!".


User ImageMilly looked up and round the large building, "Wow, it is the most intersting building I have seen!" Her eyes widen with excitment, "We can go to any world we want in books, let's go find one together!"


User ImageEden giggle "Come on Milly", Eden begins the stairways that take to the entrance of the library to ascend and when she arrives up sje is rotated to see if Milly follows her, Then Eden enters and greets the librarian "Hello Miss" Eden says in low voice for not bothering.


User ImageMilly followed close behind, carefully she stepped and followed Eden. Milly smiled, "Hello Miss!" She followed the same greeting as Eden as she had been following her anyway.



User ImageEden catches the hand of Milly and she continues walking and she whispers " we go to the reading room you don't go away a lot this it can be a real labyrinth". Eden takes to Milly among immense bookcases full with books of all type, it seemed really a labyrinth without end, it seemed that the reading room that Eden said didn't exist, looks where looks at these surrounded of books and bookcases without end. Suddenly leave a light spice and in the distance leave a comfortable corner with armchairs and sofas, tables and lamps, a welcoming corner where to read peacefully. "This reading room is almost secret, more as my special corner, This very hidden one and for that reason almost nobody knows where it is" She whispers and smiles kindly to Milly.


User ImageMilly smiled at her new friend revealing something that she thought was secret. She nodded as Eden explained everything to her and smiled spread softly across her lips, "So this little spot is where the worlds come to life?"


User Image" yes, here is where the worlds come to live" Eden looses the hand of Milly and sits down in one of the armchairs, "This is my favorite armchair. tell me Milly. what type of books do you like?" She smiles and she looks at Milly with expectation, she is very happy of met somebody that has wanted to accompany to her corner.


User ImageMilly covered her mouth as she giggled at how small Eden looked in the armchair. She sat down on the floor near the chair legs and thought for a moment. She twirled her hair a little and took a deep breath, "I like fairy tales, ghost stories, and stories about friends," she smiled up at Eden, "Plus magic is wonderful. I also like painting books, they have beautiful ideas of the world."

+Milly Meet Dean and Alex+
On the way to the camping event((S'mores Event))


User ImageMilly hopped around the room as she tugged on her hoodie. This is exciting her first social interaction with others. She looked in the mirror and stuck her tongue out at the bperson that stared back at her. Maybe she could tell a ghost story or something. She tugged on one pigtail as she opened the door and took a hop start into the hall for her destination.

User Image Heading outside, Dean realized he hadn't bothered to find out where the actual bonfire event was. He looked about and coughed, shuffling his feet and figuring that if he walked slowly enough, someone else would come heading in the right direction. And then he could follow behind them nonchalantly. Liking this idea, he hovered near the entrance, looking for all the world like he was supposed to be there anyway.

User ImageMilly hummed and danced down the hall. This was going to be fun, and to think Camping too! She stopped a moment and took a deep breath as she did not want to fall with anyone around, it was common for her to do so, this prevented her from becoming too excited, though it never worked. She had actually picked up speed as she rushed to get outside when she spotted the door. "YAAAAAAHHHH!" the echo of the hall was loud as she as usual tripped on her shoelace and went rolling down the hall.

User ImageDean heard the 'Yaaaaa' first. Looking into the hall, he then saw something rolling at him. Raising an eyebrow and telling himself there could be a reasonable explanation, he decided to wait for it to stop rolling before he decided to see what had happened. Trying to stop it now might mean he'd start rolling too.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex brought her attention to the winding path before her. She couldn't wait to get there. Hopefully she could make some new friends. Maybe have a smore eating competition or something. Alex's mind began race with ideas. She paused to pick up a small stick off the ground, she threw her arm up in the arm pointing the stick towards the sky. Alex laughs maniacly, "Oh and of course ill win too!" she snickers.

User ImageMilly giggled as she came out of the roll landing on her stomach. "That was great!" she prenounced as she pushed herself up and began checking for damage. The was a small scrap on her knee but that would heal quickly, she was adjusting her socks when she noticed Dean, "Oh um..." She turned alittle red but shook it off, "Hi, I'm Milly, are you going to the hill top?" she looked curiously as him as her ears flicked when she spoke.

User Image Dean was busy wondering what kind of kid this was. She reminded him slightly of Drake with that sort of crazy energy. Shaking his head, he said "Ahm, yeah. Hilltop. Right." He flicked an ear and was about to head off when it occured to him that even though he now had a place to go, he didn't know where that place was. He turned around and smiled at the girl. "Hey, why don't you lead the way?"

User ImageMilly blinked at him for a moment, "Well, okay. One thing though all I know is that iit is in the forest on the hill top." She went ahead of him and held open the door, "I'm sure that we can figure the rest out or at least find someone who knows where it is as I am new here." She tapped her foot as she waited for him to follow as he had made her leader.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex brought her hand to her hip, as she leaned on one side and poked her cheek with the trip of the stick. "I wonder how you make smores anyways." she mumbled to herself. Alls she knew was that they tasted delicious. She shuged and and started to go to the hill again.

User ImageDean nodded at her, willing to follow her lead as long as it brought him somewhere. "You're new here, too then?" he asked. His hands were in his pockets and his walk was still at an easy pace. "You weren't one of the kids from the train wreck, were you?" He briefly wondered if she knew more about the incident than he did, if he recalled correctly he appeared to have slept through most of it. He knew he enjoyed sleeping and lazing about, but never realized how a hobby could get to you.

User ImageMilly smiled, "Yeah, I was one of the one so they told me though I don't remember anything, they said I slept through it." She was now hopping on her right foot as they were going in the opposite direction of the school, that should be the way to the forest, right? "So I take it by you too that you are new?" She put her hands on her hips and she looked at him for an answer.

User ImageDean nodded. "They found me asleep, too." He was surprised he wasn't more frightened about it. But then again, it wasn't a frightening memory, not anymore than a quick catnap was a life and death situation. Absentmindedly, he stroked his tail, letting it slip through and around his hand as it waved gently. Eventually, something occured to him. "By the way, what's your name? I'm Dean, Dean Roodrey."

User ImageMilly smiled at Dean as he had become a little more friendly, "I'm Milly Hearts. Milly is just fine." She curtseyed a little as she turned to look at which way to go, "Hmmm..." she took a deep breath, "I wonder if I shout someone would hear us and they would help us?" She looked over her shoulder to see what Dean would say.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Sighing Alex decided to sit down cross-legged on the grass by a little tree. //Ill just wait for someone to show up. Its rather boring walking by myself// She blew the strand of hair thats always in her face upwards as she started poking the ground with her stick.

User ImageDean shrugged. "Maybe. Or maybe it would just make our ears hurt. I mean, it seems to me like a bonfire party is gonna have lots of people. And lots of people usually means lots of noise, no?" He let go of his tail. "I don't know, maybe it also means there are more people to hear us." Stiffening, he realized something. "Wait, you mean we're lost?"

User ImageMilly began to chuckled at Dean, "We're not lost, but I don't want to end up to be lost especially in a forest like Hansel and Gredal?! THat would not be fun." With a nod of her head she grinned and cupped her hands around her mouth like a megaphone to amplify her voice, "CAN ANYONE GOING TO THE BOND FIRE HELP US?! WE COULD ALL GO TOGETHER!" Her ears twitched as she shouted, it was rather loud considering she was the one shouting.

User ImageDean winced at the noise and his ears swiveld to lay flat on his head. "Well, as long as we've alerted the world, we might as well sit down and wait." he said. Flopping down onto the ground, he sat in a relaxed position. "Hansel and Gretel found a gingerbread cottage, don't forget." It didn't sound too bad to him.

User ImageMilly flopped down, "Oh sure that's the great part, but what about the witch, you can't forget her!" She nodded vigorously as she thought about it, "Nothing comes for free and I am not one to be gobbled up."

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex stood up, she had heard a rather large scream. She looked behind her. She couldn't really see anyone. Alex squinted her eyes. She managed to make out two little specs in the distance. "People!" she sounded excited. She ran away from the forest to the people. Waving and smiling with her stick still in her hand. She stopped in front of the two sitting people. She took a second to catch her breathe and then looked down at them both. "Hey there." she smiled.

User Image"Fair enough." Dean conceded. "Not to mention all the cavaties..." He pulled a few blades of grass lazily. "So how long do you think it'll take for them to find us?" he asked. That was a point that had worried him. If they couldn't see the bonfire's glow, they were either missing the obvious or it was a way away.

EDIT: Dean looked up. Well, that was faster than he'd expected. "Hello, there."

User ImageMilly jumped up excited to get away from the idea of a witch and the fact that her plan had worked, "HI! I'm Milly and this is Dean. We're really new and didn't know where the bondfire was going to be...could you take us with you? If you are going that way, I mean if you wouldn't mind, kind of would be really nice of you..." she was running her mouth a mile a minute and then stopped as she realized that they might not understand her.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex tilted her head to the side. She paused for a minute. //Wow this girl can talk// She chuckled a bit at her thought. "Hi Milly, Dean. Im Alex." She smiled, "Yeah, I'll take you. I was actually on my way myself." Alex nodded.

User ImageDean got up and brushed some grass off his trousers. "Thank you." he said politely. Briefly wondering if Alex was chuckling at him, he felt the back of his shirt to make sure no one had stuck a note onto it. No note was present, so maybe she was laughing at something else. He gave it a mental shrug and waited for the group to get a move on.

User ImageMilly smiled, "Great! We owe you one. It's wonderful to meet you, Alex." She dusted herself off and chuckled softly at Dean who seemed to worry about everything. "You lead Alex, that would be best."

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex nodded somemore and made an overly dramatic pose, pointing towards the forest. "Off we go!" Alex trotted determindly while chanting "Smores! Smores! Smores!"

User ImageDean couldn't share in Alex's enthusiastic display, but did try to get into the spirit of things. He waved a hand in the air slowly. "Woo!" he said in a way that made the most it could of his reserves of enthusiasm for a warm fire and company. He noticed the hand waving revelry was causing him to lag behind, so he stopped and picked up his pace unitl he was close enough to resume his strolling pace.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex glanced back at Dean as he caught up to herself and Milly.

She looked to Milly who was walking next to her. "So what kinds of things do you like or not like? If you dont mind me asking?" Alex asked Milly as the trio got closer to the forest.
[

User ImageMilly laughed at the two of them being silly, she jumped into the air and punched, "Let's be off and have fun! S'mores here we come!"


User Image Dean nodded, for this proposal sounded sensible to him. He followed Milly and said "Soooo... how is everyone?" in an effort to strike up conversation.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex grins. "Thats the spirit Milly!"

She looks at Dean. "Im good! You?" Alex blows her hair out of her face.


User ImageMilly giggled at Alex and smiled at Dean, "Dean, if we weren't good, we wouldn't be going to these... but I am fine." Her ear twitched as she felt her hair prickle against her.

User ImageDean's ear twitched. "I'm cool, just fine." he said lazily. "So, what does this bonfire thing include, anyway?" He was a bit hazy on the details here. All he had picked up on the event were along the lines of fire, smores, and some sort of stories.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex chuckled, "Well, Its a campout, so there will be camping involved. Hopefully the storys will be very very scary~" Alex moved her arms in a wave like motion as she said 'very'.

"The bonfire and stuff is supposed to welcome the new students. Other than that.. I guess i dont really know anything about it either..." Alex shurgged.


User ImageDean nodded. "I can handle scary stories. After all, they're just made up..." Inwardly, Dean groaned. Scary stories made him uneasy. "So we get a warm welcome? No pun intended." He had started playing with his tail again, lazily letting it twist between the fingers of one hand.

User ImageMilly danced around Alex and Dean as she explained the whole bonfire event, "Well, there is a lot of food going to be served and everyone is going to have fun together." She was really excited about the information of having fun, "And plus we'll be altogether and we'll exchange ghost stories!"


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex laughed at Dean's 'warm welcome'. "Thats funny~" Alex looked to Milly when she started talking. "Ghost stories~ And Food~ I can't wait!" Alex exclaimed, excitement swelling inside her.

User ImageDean nodded slowly. It sounded okay. Certainly the right place to relax. "So how far away is it now?" he asked interestedly. He wanted to know how long a walk they had to get to this place. He might need to find it again, after all. He probably wouldn't remember how far away it was if ever he needed to know, but at least he was asking.

User ImageMilly looked around as they walked, she would have to come explore this place after the bonfire, "how many people are going? I mean, are your friends going Alex?" She was being a little nosy but there was nothing wrong with getting to know people right?

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. "Not too long..." Alex said unsurely. She was horrible with time estimates. She turned to Milly, "My friends? I don't really have any friends... yet. I haven't gotten out much or talked to anybody really... but thats gonna change at the bonfire!" She said determindly

User ImageDean felt content. The night air was cool, they were going to arrive at the campfire soon, and there he could meet some people, listen to stories, and generally have fun. "Well, what about us? You're talking to us right now, and no one's grown to despise each other yet." he pointed out, stifling a sleepy yawn.

User ImageMilly nodded in agreement with Dean, "Yes, that is true, we seem to be meshing well. I consider that really good especially since there are some people who might think me annoying..." She pouted a little at the thought of it, "But we'll have fun making s'mores together. I mean anything with chocolate is great!"


User ImageDean shrugged. Chocolate was okay, but vanilla was more to his preference. Not willing to be disruptive with this news, he instead said "Yeah, smores sound good. I'm more of a smore eater than a smore maker, myself." He grinned at this, his first in the discussion.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex grinned "I like it when you go to bite a smore, and the marshmellow starts to fall out the other end, and then you try to save it and it ends up getting everywhere." Alex started to ramble. She looked around, "We should be there pretty soon. The group continued walking. Through the forest sounds could be heard. "You think thats people at the Bonfire?" She looked at the two

User ImageMilly smiled at Dean's comment, "Did you just make a funny?" She chuckled as she thoughabout it, "The only thing is the marshmellows...they get stuck everywhere!" She could remember making messes that got her into deep trouble for messing up the kitchen, "Maybe!" Her ears twitched at the sound.

Xenostatica
User ImageMilly nodded as she noticed others talking and chatting, "I guess this is the best way to make new acquiatances?" she wrinkled her nose trying to figure if she had said that correctly. She seemed to be hopping now as she headed to one of the booth where the food was, "Come on Dean lets figure it this is right."

Kotatsu-chan
User ImageDean nodded and followed after her at aslightly faster than normal pace. After all, he was getting hungry. Striding rather than strolling, he caught up to the energetic girl. "Soooo, should we get sticks or something?" He wasn't exactly looking forward to roasting marshmallows by hand, which appeared to be the only method available to them at the time.

Xenostatica
User ImageMilly looked around for branches or sticks they could use, "I think we do need them, maybe they will have some there..." She looked at the tables as the approached, there were no sticks in sight, "Looks like we need to find some...but we are in the middle of the forest so there should be some on the ground." She huntched over a little as she used the light from the fires to see if she could find some for them.

Okoyk
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex imagined roasting marshmellows with her hand. She shuddered at the thought and looked at her hands. Alex watched Milly and Dean walk off, and wondered if she should follow. She looked around once more and decided to follow. Alex threw down her little stick shes been holding as she caught up with the two.

Kotatsu-chan
User ImageDean watched the girls and even helped a little, picking up sticks and examining them briefly before dropping them down. Remembering a tidbit of information, he said "Don't forget to burn the tip of the stick to put the marshmallow on." He didn't know why but he suspected it mas merely because it was healthy. Cleansing-ish. Picking up another stick, he discarded it. It was far too small for a marshmallow.

Xenostatica
User ImageMilly was humming as she was hunting for a branch, so were really too small and would burn their hands, "Oh look!" She rushed over to a branch that was on the ground a little outside thecircle of light, "What about this?" She stood by the rather large limb.

Kotatsu-chan
User ImageDean went over to Milly and made a show of mesuring the stick. "Hmmm.... That'll do, then!" Turning to Eden, he said "You wanna help look?" He picked up another one and showed it to Milly. "How about this, then?"

Okoyk
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex walked over to where Milly was standing, and looked down at the mentioned branch. "Hmm..." Alex observed the limb, it wasn't too small. "It looks like nice to me" She said giving a thumbs up.

Alex continued to search for her own branch. She picked a medium sized one up off the ground and twirled it in her fingers. "This is a nice one i think... What do you guys think?" She asked turning to show them.

Xenostatica
User ImageMilly hugged her branch and examined Dean's branch, "That looks pretty good it isn't small but it's not too big!" And she eyed Alex's when she head her ask, "Oh that looks like it could cook more them one marshmellow at a time!"

Kotatsu-chan
User ImageDean nodded at Milly's approval. He looked over at Alex's branch as critically as he could look at a piece of wood and gave her a thumbs up. "Shall we get some marshmallows then, ladies?" he asked, giving a mock-bow and gesturing towards the tables.

Okoyk
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. "Oh yeah" Alex remarked. She closed her eyes for a second and imagined three marshmellows on her one stick, and grinned. Alex then snapped out of her little dream and she walked over to some tables with everyone.

Xenostatica
User ImageMilly followed to the table and grinned wide as she saw all of the items that were availible for them to use, "Marshmellows, chocalate and graham crackers!"

Kotatsu-chan
User ImageDean resisted the urge to pop a marshmallow into his mouth. He said "Well, are we given these or will we take some?" in a bored fashion. He himself was up for taking some, but wan't quite sure he should. "And then we should find a bonfire to sit at."

Okoyk
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Alex shrugged "Well they are just sitting out here, and other people already have some.. So i guess it wouldnt hurt to just take them..." she inched closer to the graham crackers, "I wonder if we would get in trouble..."

+Milly's 1st Letter+
This is a letter to her father after the train event.

Hi Dad,
I am doing fine, considering what I have been told it is like nothing ever happened. I am quite alright I am getting use to my dorm but am a little slow at making friends, mostly because I have been lost in thought and cleaning my dorm to be as it would if I were at home. I am still a little upset that I had to come here but I am slowly becoming use to that. It won't be too long before I forget that it even bothered me as I will be at some cafe or library with my friends talking and chatting.

Even though he is not talking to you and at to a point I'm sure that he is still mad at you, I will let you know that big brother is here. I understand that you two don't talk but as your son I figure that letting you know that he is here relaxes some of your nervous thoughts about how he is doing. Though I saved you a little troubl of not speaking to him, I really wish you two would work something out so that it is not a sad, bitter type relationship cause I know you have to love each other very much.

Okay now that I got that I let you know that I am okay and that big brother is fine and I gave you the lecture again I can now get to my rules for Dad while I'm away:

1. No eating grease or fried foods ((I'm a kid and I don't even eat it like you do, besides don't you want to watch me graduate!))
2. Excerise ((It doesn't have to be everyday but at least 3 times a week))
3. Eat your vegetables, ((again not fried)) fruits, and your grains ((Cause dad let's face it you need them))
4. If you are going to be lazy, go outside and do it, then sun and fresh air is better for you.
5. Work on your lawn! I'm not there to mow it and you need the excerise anyway.
6. Don't forget your medicine and vitimans.(( The doctor doesn't give that stuff to you for fun!))
7. Always write back and tell me how you are doing and no lying!

Love Your Milly Lilly

+The Permission+
Letter for Extended Stay

Hi Dad,

Okay, from this last letter that I received from you, you are not doing anything right! Didn't you listen to anything that the doctor told you? I swear what would you do with out me?

OKay, you boil the cabbage first to make the broth then you take it out, then you add the vegetables you want then you let those cook for a few hours or till soft as some veggies cook fast then others. Last you add the cabbage back in and there is that soup for your diet. All good and healthy for you.

That's easy right? I mean it's not hard and if you keep to your diet I'll send you something sweet and healthy next time. But this is beating around the bush...

I am also writing to get permission to stay an extra week at the palace for Servants appreciation. I know that it is not something I want to do but I have to elimate everything in my life before I pick something to do.

You understand? I love you, Dad. Take care and maybe I'll work great!

Your Milly Lilly

Maid & Butler Appreciation Week

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Next week is "Maid & Butler Appreciation Week." The city council is proud to announce that the children of Greinell have been invited to Carneton Palace to spend a day living the life of a noble caretaker.

At Carneton, the young guests will be assigned tasks to do. At the end of the day, they will help cook a grand feast for the Royal Family and their staff.

This is a great chance to see the royal palace up close and is a great life experience. Transportation and other fees are covered. Anyone who signs up will need to be at the train station on Monday with their luggage (a few outfits and neccessities-- the train ride will take half a day).

Seara is rewarding extra credit to the students who go. They will spend a day at Carneton Palace on tuesday, then they can board home on wednesday or choose to sight see on their own(only if they get their parents/guardian permission signatures though) for the rest of the week and return by train by sunday.

Being the capital of Raime, Arion is a beautiful city surrounded by the ocean, filled with beautiful architectural works, many monuments, and historical sights to see. The marketplace is a particularly popular tourist spot, filled with lively vendors selling exquisite wares from all over the world.

Have fun! And remember to thoroughly thank your household staff next week.

When you have fulfilled the requiremnt, pm Anti-Dri with an order form that states which outfit you want: maid or butler.

Maid & Butler Appreciation Week

Welcome!

You all must be tired now after the train ride so feel free to choose a bed among room 3 and 4 in the servent's chambers. Each room contains 10 beds(5 on each side of the wall, there is a lovely large window at the end of the room) and there are 16 lovely volunteers so far for this event.

Despite being the servents quarters, the room is still filled with lovely wall papers, fluffy feathered pillows, and rich tapestries.

Please sign up for the bed that you want on the the list taped to each door so others won't sleep on your bed by accident during your stay.

Room 3 Beds

Feel free to keep your belongings in the trunk in front of your bed or at the night table. The bathroom is located down the hall, there are two doors. One door for each sex, within the bathroom you would go through a turn and find yourself facing many lockers beyond that would be two more doors with one leading to the large bath house for your daily hygienic needs and the other would lead to the bathroom stalls and sinks(40 of each in there).

On tuesday, you guys will finally do your task under the supervision of one of the palace's servants(though they won't watch over you the entire time since there is lots to do for the palace).

The students are to report to their assigned workplaces at 6 am and work until 5 pm(they may tour around the palace if they finish earlier under a maid or butler's guidance of'course).

At 5 they will help prepare dinner and then dine at the royal dining hall(No events will be held that day, so the kids and the volunteers get the dining hall to themselves). Serving them will be those maids and butlers who guided them that day.

Here's the list of work each student is assigned to do:
Sweeping and Mopping-
--East Hall Floor 2
Yurie
Veruvi
Valerie

These halls are around 40 meters long.

Washing and Ironing Clothes-
Seon
Winston

Cleaning the Soot from the Fireplace-
Milly
Tuyen

There are 200-300 some odd rooms in this palace, but you are only required to clean the soot from 15 rooms.

Dusting the Public Library located within the Palace-
Engle
Eden
Tuyet

Cleaning and Serving in the Prince's Room-
Zerella Aeden
Lindsy Meredi

Cybille and Obert have offered to work too since we are in a lack of maids and butlers due to them watching over the kids. So they will take up any odd cleaning job that needs filling in at the moment on call.

After this day, the students who got a signature are free to do as they want until sunday when they will board the train and return to Seara.

It is still not too late to join in the event yet, feel free to obtain the outfit and join in on the event anytime you want.

Milly's Maid Experience
Butler and Maid Event
Milly sighed as she set up her bags for her first event. She was rather excited by the idea that she would be trying out a new job though it wasn't something that she would want to do... or was it simply that she had never thought about what she could be doing for her future. Maybe she stopped and looked out the window, maybe it was time that she tried to figure that out. She was finally able to decide for herself, though she wasn't very sure if she could pick something now, but maybe having some ideas of what I could do.

She twisted her face as looked at her bag, she really wasn't sure how to take everything especially the future. With a huff she pulled at her hoodie and looked around her room. Was there anything that could help her figure out what she would do with her future? She struggled with her inner child not to think about that.

What could she possibly do? She looked at her life till now, not that it is very long. She laughed softly as she landed on the bed in her bundle of stuff animals. She cuddled into each bear and bunny, maybe they could figure it out.

She hugged her bunny as she stared at the ceiling, she could be doomed to be lost forever in a struggle of what she could do! She shivered despite her hoodie. That was one thing she wouldn't want to be doomed! She blinked at the thought of it and giggled, would she really be doomed, if she didn't pick a career now?

With that thought she pushed herself up so that she could look at everything that she had worked for and earned. Well, I at least could figure what I am good at. She smiled looking at the letters her father had sent. She was great at making sure that people were healthy, eating right, and excerise, but she was also good at cooking and drawing when she was in the mood. She had a few traits that were her good points. She had a sense of justice and honor so she could do something like that.

What does that sound like? Officers? Guards? Baker? Cook? Health Adviser? Doctor? Well that is a lot of opitions! How could I pick? Maybe I could talk to someone about the whole thing. It would really help to have someone that would know how to direct me.

With the simple smile, she looked at all her stuff animals and stuggled with the decision of which to take on her adventure.

+Journal Entry+
Milly sat back in her room, it was rather quiet and she figured this would be the best time to sit back and reflect on her experiences so far in addition to the people she had meet.

She looked at her hanging maid outfit and the letters that her father had sent her, those were stuffed on the mirror side where she could reach them in time of need or loneliness.

She had met Eden, Dean, Alex and then the girls at the maid event! She was having some good luck meeting people though she hadn't really run into her brother, it made her a little sad to think about that fact.

He was probably very busy and the idea of having to take care of her must have chased him off a little, as they weren't the closest but still. They were siblings and cared very much about their parents...well as much as one could even when you are angry at them.

She tossed her stuffed bunny in the air and caught it, then turned back to the opened book and sat quietly as she continued in thought.

These people, Eden, she made Milly look like a little child though they both enoyed faerie tales and such she seemed just a bit more mature the her. This is alright cause she figured that she needed some friends that were a tad more serious so that she could be put into the position to work and read and the such.

Dean, this part cat boy was a bit on the lazy side. Not that Milly really mind this, but she was curious of his true nature. His tail flicked and wagged when he seemed to think about something or when he was rather confident that something he wouldn't want to do. He was pretty easy to talk into doing things with cause he did go to the s'more event even though he seemed relunctant to join in the festivity.

Alex, well she was more like herself, she seemed to be one to adventure out and explore the world. She helped Dean and her find the s'mores fun. She was also fun to be around as she was talkative and willing to make friends. Milly chuckled softly, she was one that seemed to make friends a whole lot easier the Milly, even.

She might have to hunt down these people to get to know them better so that they could go out and do more things together though it was not necessary she would like that definitely. That way when she was lonely like she was now she could go see one of them and they could chat together and have tea and chat. Yup she would have to do that later, for now I'll just hug my stuff animals and take a nap. Once school gets going I'll have time for all that fun, she smiled as she got comfortable in the mess of animals she had.
