Chapter 346: No nice things to say about the dead.

When Sigrid finally woke up, it was 2:00 p.m. in the afternoon. She had slept for so long that she missed lunch and nobody had woken her up. She yawned and sat up slowly, stretching her arms.

"Your highness, you are awake." Lanai’s voice came from behind her.

Sigrid sensed the people in the room before she saw them. Her maids were standing behind, Alistair was perched on the window. Veylin was behind the curtain, hiding in the shadow.

"We will bring your lunch straight away unless there is something you need to do first." Lanai said.

Bella came and wiped Sigrid’s face with a warm towel. Another maid started massaging her shoulders. Mrs. Elsworth switched on the television and urged someone to bring some drinking water and calming tea. Everyone was doing something to please her or make her comfortable.

Mauve and Christie walked into the room, having received a text from Lanai, informing her that the crown princess was awake.

She had been far, she was just outside on the balcony, discussing magic theories with Christie and all the places on the world that they wanted to visit.

"You are awake, your highness." Mauve spoke up eagerly. "You have managed to sleep for four hours. How exhausted were you?"

"Very exhausted, I would imagine." Sigrid replied. "I think I fell asleep immediately after returning from Fairfax manor. Have you two been there?"

"Oh yes." Mauve sat down next to Sigrid. "We went together and we were both in time to hear Lady Underwood singing, Near to me, great Lord."

Christie pulled up a chair and sat opposite the table on which drinks were being set down by servants. "I do not understand why anybody allowed her to sing or who told her that she was an expert when it came to high notes. I swear that I saw a horse running into a pond just to keep from listening to her screeching. And it was screeching, not singing."
