Bk 2: Chapter One (3)

Amie released a breath she did not know she was holding, the moment she sat in her carriage. Beth remained silent with her head bowed. One could not tell what was going through her mind. The silence continued through out the journey all the way to the palace gates. The carriage driver was stopped at the gates were amie heard him identify himself as from the Krain household.

"What buisness do you have in the palace? Only those with a pass can be granted entrance." she head the guard say.

"I carry Miss Krain." the guard said. One could hear his voice shake.

There was silence, then she heard someone aproach.

"Pardon me miss, could you lift the curtains?" the guard asked.

"And would you recognise me if I do?" Amie asked without complying and the guard paused. She was right. Very few have ever met Miss Krain. How would he know it to be her?
