"My Lady, are you really sure about it?" Belle asked. "I will be alright, Belle. I have already done the preparations." I said. "Are really, really sure?" She asked. "For the sixth time, I am fine." I said. "If you say so." She finally gave in.
"Is the veil tight enough?" She asked. "Yes, good." I said.
"My Lady," A maid got inside. "Don't you know the basic manners of knocking then asking permission and then getting in?" I asked. The maid was quiet for a while. I guess, she didn't expect me to react in this way.
"I am sorry. I will do well next time." She said. "Don't you know the basic manners of apologizing to your master by getting on your knees and bowing?" I asked.
She then quickly got on her knees. "This will never happen again, My Lady." She said.
"Alright. Report." I said. "Commoners are having a strike in front of this house." She said. "Reason?" I asked. "It's regarding the matter that you fell into the Holy Pond, Pond Ieros." She said.
"You are dismissed." She said and I heard the door behind me, close. "My Lady, what will happen to you now?" She asked. "It's alright." I said and walked out of my room, with Belle behind me.
"Ana." I heard Father call me. "Father? What is the matter?" I asked. "People are there in front of the house. Go through the back door." He said. "Father, if only they know our strength, they will think twice about attacking again." I said.
"Dear, no. They are peasants. We can't take our force on them on them." Father said. I shook my head. Then I went near to him, and entangled our arms.
"Father, Father, Father. Why are you thinking in a violent way? What about we use some brain?" I asked. "You got a plan?" He asked. "Trust your daughter, old man." I said and he smiled.
I got out of the mansion. "Lady Anastasia must be punished!" One would tell. "LADY ANASTASIA SHOULD BE PUNISHED!" Others would repeat.
"Alright, alright, alright." I held up my hands and everyone kept quiet. "I will be punished." I said and people began talking among themselves. "But for what should I be punished?" I asked.
"For dirtying the Holy Pond, of course." One of the peasant said. "Holy Arlos! Falling into Holy Pond, what are you talking about?" I sounded surprised.
"Yeah, you fell into the Holy Pond." Another said. "Who told you so?" I asked. They started talking among themselves. They were getting confused.
"Don't tell me that this is something that you people created it own your own." I said. "It was Hanuel who said it." One of them said. "Hanuel? Alright, if you say so. I, of course, believe all of you." I said.
"Now what reputation does he have?" I asked. "He is the newspaper of this Estate." Other said. "What kind of news?" I asked. "Gossips." A lady said. "Yeah, he once said that I was having a relationship with a man just because I entered a shop at night." Another lady started and everyone started talking discredits on him.
"Alright, alright." I raised my hands and everyone kept quiet. "A person who gossips nonsense about women all day came to you and told you that I fell into the Holy Pond, people, you should act a bit more sensibly." I said.
People slowly began disappearing from the courtyard. Father laughed out loud. "I haven't seen something this interesting in a while." He said and I smiled.
"Come on, Father. We can't keep the Palace waiting." I said.

"My Lord, today in the House of Aesther...." The informer filled in whatever happened. "It seems like, the Young Lady Aesther is starting to become interesting." He laughed and finished his wine.
