Ok, before I post up my first post, I'm slightly confused.  Now for the first post, we're all meeting the queen for the first time to be placed as his small group of companions.  They were all placed into the sisterhood at young ages(some later than others).  The part that confuses me is, are the ladies already in the sisterhood at this point and are now being chosen to become the prince's protective companions or are they just being placed into the sisterhood for the first time(and if so, wouldn't that make everyone younger; including the prince?)<br/><br/>I'm pretty sure it's the first one, but just to be safe, I had to ask.  Also, would all the girls chosen know each other before becoming a group?
