The Ladies Talkshow

Welcome to the Ladies Talk Show. This is your host, Lea Richheimer. We are on, believe it or not, Ladies Chapter 13, The Queen's Gift and Marriage Secrets. We are starting up. We just finished Harmony and we are going into a very, very beautiful, beautiful section. Here we go. 

10 ,000 people line the main thoroughfare. Some are seated on chairs, many have children on their laps holding small flags. The buzz of a thousand hushed voices carries through the air. You watch as a regal guardsman eases his horse back into position in the long row of horsemen standing at attention. Lining the route are sentries wearing majestic red jackets and black velvet hats. You look through the window of your parked carriage and see the most awesome sight at the crest of the hill.

A nobleman, white familiar to you, in a posture reserved for royalty, is seated upon the most magnificent white horse you have ever seen. The man is wearing a heavy white cape adorned with shimmering gold coins. He is leading an entourage on horseback, all bearing silver shields emblazoned with the royal coat of arms. His head is held high, but without a trace of arrogance.

His demeanor is one of pride mixed with gratitude, and he seems to glide with the horses as if the two were one. As the crowd notices him, descending the hill, they gasp at the site and begin to rise silently in homage. The sight of thousands of people rising reverently in response to his approach is enough to completely take your breath away.
