(alrighty the time skip isn't much its just to the point where everyone is in the great hall together, if anything you can finish loose ends then and just mention the servants insistence to get you there)<br/><br/>Not long had passed till maids and butlers would come upon the leaders and their charges finding one and all with little to no problems, each would bow and alert them that dinner was almost ready, and thus ushered to have them ready. Some taking longer to help any lord or lady into their formal attire should they desire the aid. The combining effort taking all but twenty minutes and before long the servants had guided each and everyone to their assigned seat. The dining hall looked much like the rest of the kingdom elegant and traditional but with a new modern flare. Great crystal chandeliers made of their famed Valorian crystals which sparkled in multiple colors, the walls a tasteful array of creams and auburn. But then of course there was the table in which they were seated, oddly enough it was a diamond shape hallowed in the center so large and giving all guests a perfect few of each other it could easily fit at least fifty people and thus it seemed it did for the kingdoms Parliament seemed to also be joining in on the grand feast. Each representative of the visiting countries were seated at the top point of the table, where at the very end was of course reserved for her highness Veronica. But there was more thing that stood out all along the walls of the great room were portraits, of men and women, one might have been confused at first until they would see but a closer look. At one end of the south point of the diamond table did it land on the largest portrait of that wall, of a woman, it wouldn't take much for anyone to guess that she was Valora the one who ended the war and built this kingdom. Thus the north end would be no surprise, and for some it may paint a haunting picture, the portrait of Valora's once proud and beloved King. It was a tradition for the first ruler and current ruler to always be recognized and thus when a new heir would take the crown, the north portrait would be taken down and placed on either the east or west wall in a more compact form to indicate they were but the end of a chapter and that a new one would begin. It would stand to reason that once coronated it would be Veronica's portrait on that wall. But such would be an idle observation and thus servants would welcome all guests with brilliant smiles awaiting for all to be seated, for until all took their place would the princess arrive. And the feast begin. As well as perhaps her first real test.
