Busy Queen Mother

The next evening.

*Knock. Knock*

"Haven't I instructed before- not to disturb except when it's time for dinner?" An annoyed and strict feminine voice sounded from within.

"It's me." Adrian said- his tone as charming as ever.

"Adrian? Come in." The voice within the room relaxed, but it did not lose its majesty in the slightest.

Adrian stepped into the room and closed the door behind.

The room was shimmering with golden lights. The open window showed the darkness outside. The contrast between the two environments- one in and the other out, one glowing and the other dim- was a sight to behold. 

The light magic circles in the room were functioning better than ever before. Adrian's eyes were fixed on the bewitchingly beautiful woman sitting at the extravagant desk which had a tiara placed upon it along with a mess of papers.

She looked at the newcomer with a charming smile on her face. "Welcome back." She said.
