บท 30: The Moonlight Festival (1)

Ingrid looked at the woman before her, adorned in a graceful dark blue gown that flowed elegantly to the floor. The neckline, a blend of sweetheart and off-the-shoulder, framed her collarbones with enchanting delicacy.

Her silver hair, intricately braided into an updo, featured playful spirals at the sides. Gold jewelry graced her ears and neck. The earrings swayed gently, catching the light, while a delicate gold necklace added a touch of glamour.

Behind an elegant black mask stretching from temple to nose bridge, cerulean eyes sparkled with intrigue. 

"You look absolutely beautiful, Your Highness," complimented Potri, a maid in her 50s, assigned to assist the personal maids of the princesses at the Lily Palace. Despite over three years of service, this marked Potri's first time serving the Ásján princess.

Turning to Potri with a gracious smile, Ingrid responded, "Thank you. It's all thanks to your efforts."
