CHAPTER 19
TWINNING BEAUTIES
Thou art beautiful are thy feet with shoes, O prince’s daughter! The joints of thy thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a cunning workman.
SONG OF SOLOMON 6:4
The door swung open exposing another pleasant-looking woman. She wore a lovely royal blue dress. Unlike the spiral gold hair of the girl beside Elise, the woman had wavy snow-like white hair that complimented the shining precious gems around her neck. Her gown is ornamented with small quaint diamonds. Elise turned her back to the woman.

"You're finally here princess!" The woman exclaimed with teary eyes.
"W-who are you two?" she mumbled.
"I am Queen Victorine princess, I am your mother." the fair woman answered. "And this is your sister, twin sister Princess Orphia."
"You can watch my countenance?" she asked with a face downward.
