[Everdawn]

As per usual, Vieana was late. She had decided to take an afternoon nap, which was odd for her, though she had been feeling overly tired lately. She was only woken when Lessawen came into her room to look for her washing. Vieana had been very surprised at this, and when Lessawen told her the time, Vieana dissolved into, what can only be described as- panic mode.

She had rummaged through her wardrobe odding aside numerous grey and white dresses that crowded the racks. And instead, picked out a dark navy assortment striped down the middle with silver. Well, Dol Amroth must stand for something... She told herself. Lessawen had a terrible time trying to adjust the strings on the corset, Vieana fainted twice. "Not to worry Lessawen, it does happen."

"But not twice in a row m'lady" Lessawen replied. "It happens" Vieana repeated, placing at the same time a silver circlet round her hair and the same blue lily jewel that her husband had given her, three years ago. "I need an escort." she said expectedly to the maid, and together the two hurried out to the ball.

It was soon enough that she found Elen, and to her distress she could not find Tessa or Averyll. “Doesn’t Finduilas look beautiful?” Elen whispered to Vienna. Vieana just nodded. Ah! Its times like these I miss my Dardanir. Bless them.

Elen and Vieana sucessfuly (as they supposed) found their two companions, “And of course, Lady Dryea of Dol Amroth is being the star of the evening...” she heard Averyll say. Tessa stopped.

“Of Dol Amroth?”

“Yes her sister Alethea, her mother and Dryea are all from Dol Amroth.” Vieana said catching up to them. “ The Morthaniawen’s.”
Elen seemed very confused by this. “I’m starting to confuse myself” Elen said before walking off to get a drink.

"Neither have i" said Vieana turning to the others. "Neither of my sisters have, and i know that becuase you know what one sister is like.. And i have five, not to mention that at least my father would have met them and... "he knows everyone in Dol Amroth" It really is pathetic. You know what i think, and this is in my professional, six-gossiping-sisters-blood opinion, I say that we in time confront them. The younger one if possible, she seems more approachable then her older sister... And their mother, she seems rather nice dont you think."

Vieana paused to gain breath, she felt her eyelids dropping. "Why am i so tired this week!" she exclaimed. "Now, I dont want to hear that any of you have been calling that Pelien lady a snake its unkind.. Tessa.." Tessa raised her hands as in mock truce. "You called her lady, Vieana, even in the face of betrayel you are still well mannered." Tessa laughed at her.
