126 Kitchen accident

Unedited. 

After leaving Harold, Alicia returned to her chamber. The first thing that hit her nose was the damp smell of the place. She could not help but wonder if it was normal that no one had made any effort to sun dry her bed all through the day. The whole place had an unpleasant smell yet nothing was being done about it, and unfortunately she couldn't report it to the king as the servants who had been involved in the so-called accident might be punished for it.

Since she was going to be sleeping in Harold's chamber for the next seven days, she decided to not let the state of her chamber bother her for the time being. She was going to talk to Harold about it later.

Having made up her mind, she went to sit beside the window where Luciana had been seated earlier. Her brows furrowed as she thought about Luciana and what she had said about the queen trying to get prince Ivan a second wife. What could she do to help the poor girl?
