QUEEN OF THE BLACK CROWN. .
Introduction
It is 8 in the morning, April walks into her grandfather's study and finds her sister Ashley talking with grandfather.
April
Good morning grandpa.
Duke Elford
hm..
( To Ashley) I am proud of you .
Ashley
Thankyou grandpa , I knew I would get an invitation , ofcourse one of us had to get it and April is too busy with other things........
Ashley
what ?! how can that be possible........
April
Allow me to take my leave grandpa .
Duke Elford nods and April walks out of the room .
April and Ashley are sisters . April was a swordswoman and Ashley loved to show off her dance skills ( though April was better in other aspects too ). Ashley was good in gaining sympathy from people but her grandfather was fair .
April
(To herself ) Sister got an invitation too......What is the Queen planning ......ok , let me not think too much and waste my time!
April headed towards the practice ground .
There was a lot to do after practice , there were only two days left for the party( for which they got the invitation) .
PREPARATION FOR THE PARTY
The Party was hosted by the Queen because the following week the Royal Ball was hosted and because the king had passed away she could not attend it so she wanted to choose brides for her sons and get them engaged so that they can attend the royal ball( Royals from all kingdoms attend this ball ) on behalf of the kingdom . One woman from all high families were invited to the party but both April and Ashley were invited .
Ashley
