That got a few chuckles from the audience. Even though it meant a longer walk to the Palace itself, at this time of year, Violetta was infinitely grateful that the CPMO wasn't quartered in the main palace building, but instead at a small building closer to the barracks. Although Gala guests roamed the entire palace grounds, including the public areas of the military base, there wasn't nearly as much concern with getting the CPMO decorated and pretty for all the visitors; it just had to be clean and sorted, and that's how Lieutenant Violetta always liked it normally.
