The stillness and pressure I felt when they were both in the room was gone and I could take a breath.
While releasing it, I let my head fall back as I tried to get myself under control before stepping out of the room. Strangely, today I am having a very hard time doing that. It feels like as soon as I have a grip on it, it suddenly slips away.
After a few breaths like that, I forced myself to move. There is so much to do today and I don't really have that much time to waste.
Before leaving the room, I stopped in front of the mirror. Taking one last look at myself and preparing myself for how lively the castle will be today. The usual staff can't handle the amount of work that comes with a celebration of this size
