The kingdom rejoiced at the sound of their new king and queen, hearing that they will be all the more better than the last rulers gave them a sense of joy. Finally, someone to rule over them with a sense of compassion and caring.
"I wonder how things will go from here on out", said a young maiden among the crowd littered in the street.
The kingdom was restless, although most were with glee and excitement others wore a different face to this new ruler. Although the emotions were mixed, the kingdom seemed not to care and continued with their daily tasks as normal.
There was a knock at the castle door, they creaked open then shut once more. A small figure scampered in, the footsteps echoed quietly through the enchanting hallway. A panting breath came into earshot as the door to the room the king and queen were in began to open. "What in the world-", the thought was cut short as a young girl, no more than the age of 10 quickly bowed all the while still panting.
"I...I am here with a message your Highness'", she stuttered between breaths before eventually regaining composure. The two looked at each other a bit puzzled before glancing back at the girl. She took a deep breath and let it out before announcing her message.
"I am here to be a servant for you two! I have always wanted to serve the king and his queen, but never could because I was too young..", the little girl said longingly.
The king and queen sat in thought for a moment, they hadn't hired anyone since they came here, how were they supposed to know what to do with such an offer? They looked at each other and with a thoughtful glance back at the sturdy, young girl they nodded in unison.
