Part 3

THE PALACE CORRIDOR

Intro: Annastacia walks quickly to catch up with Kathryne.

(Dialogue between Annastacia and Kathryne).

ANNASTACIA: (She chuckles) I see the Queen is not impressed by you.

KATHRYNE: well, I can't imagine to be a friend to the Queen, she is high like the sky and mighty like a lion tear. I dare not befriend the Queen.

ANNASTACIA: Of course you dare not. But it is really unfortunate that you try all your best to no avail.

KATHRYNE : All I'm doing is to ease the Queen's mind, I was there when she arrived at the palace some years ago, with tears in her silky face she stared at the gates endlessly. I understand her heart who doesn't want to act too nice or too cold.

ANNASTACIA: This is what I like about you. The way you reason is beneath Topple the royal dog.

KATHRYNE: (Furious) I will not let you address me in that manner.

ANNASTACIA: What will you do, run to the King and cry?

KATHRYNE: I would rather take my leave before I lose my anger.

(Annastacia giggles as Kathryne walks away).
