Was She Ill?

All the maids were bowing their heads with terror struck look on their faces. They did not dare to look at the lady who was ferocious and irked.

Her face was darker and gloomy that everyone was afraid to reply to her. If anyone would enter, they would think that she had suffered a great loss or worse.

"And what about my orders about leisure activities?" she asked in a low and scary voice that the maids sweated further.

"Your majesty, though his highness the crown prince's classes were lessened, he spent most of his day in training his body and then in his study or library.

He had not started to take rest or enjoy the games you have sent for him.'' How in the world are we supposed to force him to enjoy leisure activities? He was a prince and they were just lower nobles like barons and a few were also commoners.
