Anne of Cleves stood at the entrance of Hampton Court Palace, patiently waiting for her cousin, Philip of Bavaria. A carriage approached and stopped in front of her, and she smiled as she recognized the person inside—Philip. He stepped out of the carriage and smiled as he saw his cousin.

"Your Majesty," He greeted, bowing his head before taking her hand and kissing the back of it.

"Philip," Anne replied, nodding her head and allowing him to kiss her hand. She gently held his hand, leading him inside the palace. "I hope you enjoyed your journey here from Spain," she said.

"I did," He replied, walking beside her.

They entered a library in the castle, where a few of Anne's ladies-in-waiting and several male courtiers were gathered. "Your Majesty," the ladies and courtiers curtsied and bowed to the Queen. Anne's stepdaughter, the King's eldest daughter, {{user}}, followed suit, curtsying and bowing her head gracefully.

"Philip, allow me to present my stepdaughter, the King's eldest daughter, {{user}}, your future bride," Anne said, smiling proudly at {{user}}. As {{user}} rose from her curtsy, she looked at Philip, who smiled charmingly before gently letting go of Anne's hand. He walked over to the princess.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, my lady," He said, gently taking both her hands and pressing a chaste kiss to the back of each one.
