Christine walked through the city streets smiling at her people as she passed. She wasn't cruel to them, as so many though she was. She just had very little interest in their lives. She paused a moment as a caravan of witches passed by then turned back towards the castle. He meeting in the city would have to wait. If she wasn't ready and in the Throne Room when those witches arrived she would be in for it. She ran through the forest that went along the castle wall and entered through a secret tunnel that led to her room. Finally she entered her room and quickly got her maid to help her change then quickly, yet gracefully, walked down to the Throne Room. She took her place on the right side of her parents waiting for the witches to come in.
