Twenty minutes later as the empress had gotten good and settled in, Gina tapped on the door.

"Come in."

"Mistress, I've brought the pixie brew."

"Oh good, put it here on the desk."

"Something else, there is a girl here to see you. She looks lost and alone."

"Send her in to see me."

"Yes miss." She said exiting the room.

Pouring a hot and fresh cup, waiting to see what she hoped was the last client of the night. Kicking off her dark brown leather boots, she relaxed a moment. Taking a sip of her favorite concoction, letting out a deep sigh. She gulped down a little more as Gina slowly opened the door.

A shy much younger girl stood behind her, nervously staring at the floor; twirling a few strands of her dark sandy brown hai around her index finger.

Gina was right, this poor girl looked lost.

"Thank you, Gina." She said as the servant then bowed to her and swiftly left the room.

"Hi there."

"Hi." The girl whispered back.

"Please sit with me."

The girl nodded, sitting in the chair across from her.

"What's your name?"

"Amberosia miss."

"Ohh, that's a beautiful name."

"Thank you... I've always liked it."

"How old are you?"

"Thirteen."

"Oh, and what is it you have come to see me about?"

"It's... complicated."

"Take a long deep breath, then tell me and I'll see what I can do to help you."
