writing_shadowsFor once, one of Rosalba's parties had been successful. She smiled as she cleaned up the dishes, humming to herself. So many people had come, and they had all seemed to have a good time. She hadn't spoken much - too busy making sure everyone had enough food - but she had listened.
Once the castle was clean as a whistle, she climbed the stairs. She was tired, but it was very worth it. It had been such a lovely party, so open and friendly. Aside from a few tense moments everyone had gotten along quite well.
She got to her room at the top of the stairs and softly closed the door.
She brushed her teeth and washed her face before changing into her pyjamas. Then she sat down on her bed.
Rosalba pulled out a mirror. "Mirror, mirror, in my hand...Please reveal my mistress's land."
And in the mirror there was another castle, far grander and more glorious than the one she was in. As always, it took her breath away. Soon she was face to face with her Lady, that most beautiful of all the Gentry.
"What do you have for me today, my precious child?" her mistress asked in a voice like silver bells. Rosalba glowed under her loving gaze as she began to share the secrets she'd been given by the dozens of Lost she'd spent the day with.
