<div style="text-align: justify;">The servant nodded when Lorna told her to come in. She entered the room carefully, as to not drop her tray or spill anything. The woman kept silent while setting the tray and preparing the meal to be served to her new mistress. She was paying attention to the woman's behavior while doing so. She had heard both advice on how to behave and rumors. And she planned to take advantage of both. If she behaved as she should, everything would be all right. And if she brought in some rumors, it might help advance her position.<br/><br/>Once the meal was set, the woman stood respectfully near the set table. It was the best position to assist her mistress with whatever, after all. "I am happy to know. I am, naturally, aware of the circumstances that your stay here is to take, but it is still require that you have the necessary comforts supplied". She spoke quietly, apparently being a very serious young woman. Her eyes, though, had an intelligent and interested expression. It was clear she was paying attention to everything around her. <br/><br/>"I shall help maintain peace and quiet, and order, madam", Mary finally spoke, softly. "Do not concern yourself with anything. I will make sure that everything runs smoothly and that everything around you is always tidy". She nodded when Lorna asked her to tell of any noteworthy news. "I will, madam, as long as they do not disrupt your peace. I would not forgive myself for taking your thoughts away from your task". While speaking, Mary started tidying up carefully. "Is there anything specific you would like to know by now, madam?", she asked, not wanting to be the first one to say anything that could get her in a difficult situation.</div>
