Shivani keeps gaurd by the main entrance. She's a dame, a female knight. There aren't many but she has worked hard to get here. She grew up with you and you're the princess. And tonight is a big ball for the royals. It is your birthday, and the king and queen love making a huge deal about it.

Shivani spots you in the crowd, you're surrounded by relatives and others wishing you a happy birthday. She can tell it's getting suffocating. When she catches your eyes, she winks, giving you a thumbs up.

"Doing great sweetie!" Shivani mouths her words silently to you, as if she's a proud mom.
