I was dressed in an old outift of last season's style and needed something new for the hunt. Knowing that it was not a grand event but something I should look respectable for either way, I rode my gelding Romeo down to Mont Nuit.
Dressed in browns and blacks I stabled my horse. Throwing a silver to an overly ecstatic stable boy, I began to walk down the street of the city hoping something would catch my eye.

Continuing to wander the streets of Mont Nuit, hearing the title from a passing lady and her friends, I decided to follow them as I had also heard they were going shopping for gowns in the Clothier's District.
I didn't have much in the way of clothing and I was glad to have caught on to their chatter so I followed.

I had been glancing around the street when I bumped int a lady on the street. Elua! What an idiot.
"Forgive me madame." I said stepping back slightly. "I wasn't watching where I was going."

"Oh! Excuse me, mesir." I exclaimed, having a handsome young man run into you doesn't happen every day. "I am alright, no harm done." I said, my accent catching a lit in my D'angeline.

I smiled at her noticing that there was an accent. "Very good," I said reaching out and brushing a crinkle from her sleeve. "I'm still terribly sorry either way." I gave her a soft bow.

He was stunningly handsome and when my eyes met his I found myself swimming in them for a moment.
Blinking quickly I thanked him,"I appreciate the kindness." I said, pulling a stray hair away from my face.

"Not at all," I said still smiling. "Are you lost?" I asked after a moment. "Something tells me you're not from here."

"Um, only a little, I heard a few of the ladies passing by talking about the Clothier's District and was about to follow them when our paths crossed." I told him, smiling pleasantly.

"My mother and I are here staying at the White Hart, but yes it's just me at the moment." I told him, my smile broadening.

"I would be glad of the company, actually. I was going to try not to get lost, but I am pretty sure it would have happened eventually." I told him, adding, "My name is Amadora, Amadora di Allighiero." Adding a curtsey as he had given me a bow.

I smiled and nodded bowing to her curtsy. "Prince Delaunay de la Courcel." I said hoping the name wouldn't send her off.

My eyes glittered, I'd never met a prince before, at least not that I knew of. That would explain the exceptional manners, "It is surely a pleasure to meet you, good Prince, I am honored." I replied, dipping my head in acknowledgement of his title.

"The Clothier's District would be a good place to start, I was thinking of adding to my wardrobe. I didn't bring very many things with me when I came here." I told him, graciously taking up his arm.
"I sold a great deal of my things just so I wouldn't have to pay to ship them along with me." I said, smiling, "I don't mind, they are just clothes, but it is always nice to have choices."

I nodded listening to what she was saying and wondering where she came from.
"Alright, well why not start there." I said pointing to one of the more common stores.

"That looks nice," I said nodding, mentally calculating my available funds, "Since I'm guessing that running into people isn't your usuall occupation, what were you about this afternoon?" I asked.

I chuckled softly at her comment. "I'm looking for an outfit for the royal hunt coming up." I replied smiling as we walked toward the store. "I require something dashing I suppose."

I nodded, I guessed the Royalty around here were a little more human than in La Serenissima, or at least a little more worldly. "I see, yes, that would be a good idea," I commented.
It was curious actually, I had been in Terre d'Ange for less than a day, start to finish, and already I had run into it's Prince, or one of them at least, I thought. Keeping my thoughts to myself for the moment I smiled, "Sounds like a wonderful occasion, a sporting event to be sure. Do you often have events like this?" I asked, keeping pace with him easily.

I smiled over to her as we entered the shoppe holding the door open and letting her step in followed her looking around the shoppe as we did.
"Not really," I said thinking. "The hunt is in memorium of the Queen's departed father."

"Oh, I see," I replied, coming to stop at a beautiful selection of gowns, a red one in particular catching my eye. "Is there anything that you do celebrate often?" I asked, picking out the dress and looking at the design. I liked it but it was very different from what I was used to.

"Midwinter and Longest Night," I said thinking for a moment. "Natale's are very important though thats a personal thing." I walked up behind her and thumbed the fabric of the gown.
"Very nice. It suits you."

I grinned, "Thank you," I was pleased to hear his compliment and intrigued to hear of the other celebrations. "Longest Night, that sounds like a long celebration," I said, "Though it probably has something to do with the longest night of the year doesn't it?" I asked, a playful smile lighting the features of my face.
I looked over the other gowns and decided to buy the red dress and have it, and anything else I found fitted later. I did find another as we talked and added it to my selections, It was a splendid sky blue color and I instantly loved it for the full, billowy skirt and soft neckline, it would be very complimentary against my skin.

"It does indeed." I said with a smiled at her comment. "It does tend to be a longer celebration, but during the winter months its really the only thing to do." I jested as I looked around the store. I wondered if there was anything that Phreya may want here.

I laughed, "That is probably true," I said, turning to another display of accessories, coats and scarves, awed at the seemingly endless display of colors, every shade of the rainbow and then some. "This is simply amazing, I have never seen so many colors. " I said, "I could never have found such an assortment back home." I added, finding a fur lined coat amidst the bundle and drawing it out from it's place. The soft animal skin dyed a dark ruby red and the fur almost the same shade of sable as my eyes.
"Ah, this is lovely, and so soft." I commented, setting aside the gowns to try on the coat, it's length almost as long as my dress. I wrapped myself in it to see the fit and fell instantly in love with it. "Mmm," It was so dreamy soft.

I chuckled runing my hands over the fur as she placed it on. "Interesting." I said softly. "So, do you have work here in Terre d'Ange?" I asked curiously. "Or is this simply for pleasure."

"No, but I'm hoping to enjoy myself for a while at least, until I do have to find work." I told him, "I've worked every day for the last seven years, I think I can handle the break. I'm just not sure what I want to do now," I added, slipping out of the jacket and adding it to the dresses I had decided upon.

"I was once the most desireable Courtesan in the Scholae of la Serenissima." I said, my chin raised proudly. Although there was a touch of sadness in my voice. It was because I missed all the splendor and riches I'd had at home, I missed the hard work and pleasure, and I missed the leasurly mornings when we did nothing but bathe.
"I left because I was finally reunited with my mother and I wanted to have a family again," I added, having been heartbroken for most of my life that I had not known her. "It was a hard decision, but I knew I wanted to be with her more than anything, so we came here." I told him.
