The long-awaited day had finally arrived. After countless months of preparing for this auspicious occasion, it was finally here. The Year End Festival that lasts three days till the start of the New Year was already here, and now, on the third and final day, in the Palace, the Year End Ball had finally begun.
Guests had already begun pouring in, the families of the Concubines rushing to see their daughters who never have ample time to visit home. While Jenivive, Hanna and Laira busied themselves with their respective families, Amalia, on the other hand, played the role of the temporary hostess, for neither Aurora nor Sera were anywhere to be seen. Madeline would often help her, but given she knew about the secret plan between her brother and the seniors of the Palace, she was tasked with keeping an eye out, until the rest of them arrived. Everything had to go according to plan after all.
