She took a deep breath as they were led to the grand banquet. It is the first day of the selection. Night, rather.
Where they are to be presented for the first time before the crown prince, as official candidates for his hand in marriage. Everyone is supposed to be at their best so as to leave a lasting impression before the highness's eyes.
She is nervous for two reasons. One, she is underdressed. Two, she didn't know how she would feel during this meeting.
For reason number one, she is the only noble who doesn't even have enough funds to buy her dresses that are in season. To add to that, she has no skills in painting her face and contented herself with adding just a bit of color to her lips.
Seeing everyone so beautiful and elegant like this, she feels a bit more overwhelmed. Next to all these beauties, she would be like a wallflower the prince wouldn't even take a second glance at.
