EMMA BROWN, MAID - ON DUTY BACK IN THE HALL<br/><br/>(http://www.animenfo.com/image/anime_1690.jpg)<br/><br/>Having taken care of the handsome cavalry officers wishes I withdrew and returned to my post by the main doors. Unfortunately I was a little late as a fine looking lady had just arrived in something of a fluster. There is no excuse for a manor house to not have someone at the door. George should have been there if I was not, and my being busy seeing to a guest should have meant that George would have brought another maid to stand door duty with him.<br/><br/>Odd.<br/><br/>I waited quietly against the hallway panelling, on the fringes of the scene between the fine lady and His Lordship in case I was needed. Above me a painting showing the conversion of St Paul on the Road to Damascus was probably not helping this lady's agitated mood if I was quite understanding even a part of what she was saying, though I pretended not to since such concerns were not mine.<br/><br/>The rich did have some interesting ideas and concerns in their lives though. I never bothered to think on such matters but her words did intrigue me.
