"Her Majesty, the Empress has arrived!" Reuel heard the announcement loud and clear as he was being dressed by his maids.

"Forgive me ,Your Majesty," Baldur, Reuel's personal guard walks hurried out of the dressing room to meet Alexina who had already let herself into the main bedchamber. 

"His highness is properly dressed to see you. If Your Majesty will just wait for some moment."

"That won't be necessary. I wish to speak with my son alone, send everyone out." Alexina orders.

"B_but Your Majesty, His Highness is not properly —" 

"Are you to say that I do not know how to dress my own child?" 

"Forgive my insolence, Your Majesty. I will clear the room this instant." He bows and returns into the dressing room.

In the next second, everyone of the maids scurried out of the dressing room, with Baldur leaving last with a bow.
