New Year's Eve with Morgana

[bit_of_a_clotpole]

At a quarter to midnight, the great bell of Camelot tolls once. The townspeople crowd into the streets and a lucky hundred or so get into the palace courtyard.

The Main Hall is full with the nobles of the kingdom.

And Prince Arthur (allowed to stay up for the first time!) is sneaking the corridors to Morgana's chambers to bring her down for the New Year's countdown.

Morgana, despite her determination to stay up until Arthur comes to get her, did fall asleep for a while, awaking about half an hour before the bells.

So she's been rushing to get ready. For an event like this, she's pulled out her very best dress. It's royal blue, with white ribbons, as it will be many years before she starts getting the ones embroidered with small gemstones. After brushing her hair out, she's tied half of it back with a white ribbon.

She likes it better this way, as she still doesn't like the maid the King's assigned her. At home, her nurse expected her to be able to dress herself.

When she thinks it's about time (really it's 5 minutes early) she keeps peeking out the door, looking for Arthur.
