"Yes, sir." The maid swallowed. "I'll keep this short if its fine, sir. I am Heidi Lindford, hailing from the northern shores." A bit of foreign blood in her perhaps, her skin seemed a fair shade. The rosiness was also quite notable. "I have been in service of the Academy here at the city, taking care of laundry and clean-up. I have also in my time there assisted female students in dressing up in the more complicated dresses for events like the academy ball." She swallowed.<br/><br/>"I left due to a disagreement with the academy headmaster. More precisely, disagreement on whether or not his position permits him to try and approach young female staff with advances that are not exactly welcome. I left the academy though I hear the older female staff brought the matter up for the court to issue their decision." It was one of those things then where they sought hte queen's decision rather than a higher court. Some might frown, some might support it.<br/><br/>"I am looking for an employee that knows the meaning of 'no' and Angelique I have known for a while, she is a sweet woman I have enjoyed talking with her whenever I have met her at the market. She told me there might be an opening but I'd need to present my case to you. I hope to serve diligently, I am not against all advances but I prefer to have a say in them, and more so, I would be a loyal servant if you could hire me to your or your sister's service, and in either case I would seek to provide you with any information you might need." Her words were serious as she spoke, but her arms crossed under her bosom the ample size of the valley was made all the more evident.
