The lady awoke from a restless sleep at the cry of the rooster. Although she ordered her guards to let nobody into her house, Lady Gwen knew there were beings out there that would not use doors. Or worse, to which the guards would be no match. One of her servants came in to wake her.<br/>"It's morning milady."<br/>"I noticed Eliza. Thank you."<br/>The servant placed an elegant red dress on the dressdoll, told her lady she was in the kitchen making breakfast and left the bedroom.<br/>Slowly and with a lot of negative feelings, Gwen got out of bed and slid out of her nightgown. She sighed heavily and looked at herself in the mirror. Her long red hair hanging loose over her back. Her pale skin cold and still tired. With one hand she folded her hair so that it would look shorter and suddenly she got an idea.<br/>"Gwen you are brilliant, you really deserve to be a noble," she giggled and got dressed. She would talk to her private guard about her idea when she would see him.<br/><br/>Her mood had increased since she had come up with a plan, but nevertheless she strapped a dagger around her right upper leg and went down the stairs to the dining room. The smell of fresh bread and herbs made her nostrils curl.<br/>"Eliza that smells wonderful as always," she said as she sat down on the large wooden table in the dining room. When the servant came into the room with plates full of food she quickly unfolder her napkin and placed it on her lap.<br/><br/>"Eliza, when you are done serving breakfast, can you ask the headguard to summon the mercenary to me as soon as possible.<br/>Eliza left the room a few more times and when the table was filled with more food than anybody could eat she left with a nod and a quick bon apetit.<br/><br/>Gwen looked around the table and took a small fresh pastry. The more she thought about her idea, the happier the became and grinning she ate her breakfast.
