Oh hello!

*She smiles at Meadow and Philomena*.

Did you have a nice holiday Philiomena? I know you went away for a break, it would be nice to get away from the swamp for a few days.

*She smiles at Meadow*.

You look pretty? Have you done something new with your nails?

*She slumps into a chair*.

I've had a trying day. I spilt nail varnish on my blue dress and I think the stain is permanent. I scrubbed and scrubbed.

*Sighs*

Look at my hands!

*She holds up her yellow palms*.

They're so dry! Not good, I have no moisturiser. Have you got any Philomena?

Of course sweetie... Use any.

*She hands her some moisturisers to choose from*

Anyway I have splendid news, we are all going to live in luxury in my father's castle.

*Her eyes look dazed and she plays with her necklace*

My father knows what is best for me.

Oh that's lovely.

*She claps her hands excitedly and giggles*.

I'd love to live in castle, that would be fantastic. Yes please! When are we going?

*She shakes the moisturiser on to her hands and rubs*.

Yes. A castle. Lady Garli. A lady of the castle. I have fallen on my little pretty feet haven't I?

*She smiles*.

We should celebrate with cheese and biscuits, and maybe tea.

*She looks thoughtful*.

Your father? Have I met him? He must be very rich!

'Meadow looks worried'

Garli have you seen Kalvos anywhere?

My father is the Duke of Zoltar. He is the most wonderful and kind father in all the world. I must be a good daughter, he knows what is best for me.

*She rolls her eyes.*

Still talking about Kalvos? Perhaps you should stay here with him and get married?
