"We're...somewhat close to the servant quarters," Mandy said unhelpfully, but truth to be told, she often got turned around in the hallways. They all looked alike. She normally just took one path until she ended up where she wanted to go; it always worked out in the end. "But if we go back this way we should come out near the courtyard." Mandy loved the courtyard. It was rare that the servants were permitted outdoors, but simply cutting through the pathways to the next wing was delightful, even when the weather was cold.
Mandy waited for Luna to fall instep beside her before she went along her way. "Tell me more about the pillowcases," she said eagerly, casting a quick glance at Luna. "Are they all different colors? I've not been able to find one that wasn't... well, peach or... a dreadfully boring off-white."
