As Ophelia steeled herself for the meeting with Leonard, she took a deep breath, her heart pounding with a mixture of nerves and anticipation.
With a final nod to her loyal companions, she turned back to the head butler, her resolve firm.
"Thank you for your assistance," she said, her voice steady despite the tumult of emotions swirling within her. "I'm ready to meet with Lord Leonard now."
The head butler bowed respectfully, a hint of approval glinting in his eyes as he ushered her towards the towering double doors.
"As you wish, Your Grace," he replied with a gentle smile. "Please, follow me."
As the head butler reached for the ornate handles of the double doors, a sense of anticipation hung heavy in the air.
With a practiced flourish, he pushed the doors open, revealing what lay beyond.
