MOrwen smiled and peeked into the door of the hall. "Good, we still have time to talk. How have you been, Estel?"

Estel rubbed the back of her head.
"I still have a small lump... but not bad. Otherwise, I'm ok! I am so glad to be back in Rohan. Eowyn and I used to be best friends. And secretly, I have a crush on Eomer."
She winked and chuckled at herself.

"You think he likes me? He's always been nice to me... but I never could tell... I've liked him for years."
she paused, and laughed at Deawen's face.
"What am I saying! I sound like a... like a girl!!" she exclaimed.

MOrwen leaned against a counter and went into her "thinking possition" (hand on her chin, frowning slightly.) "I wouldn't have thought," she said.

"Maybe I could do some wheedling tonight into Eowyn's opinions..."

Estel grinned.
"Would you!!?" she exclaimed. "Oh thank you! I owe you one. Speaking of! We should probably serve the meal..."

Ah!" Morwen yelped. She went out quickly and came back with a big platter with some food left. "We need the other dishes gone and the last tray of desserts out, quickly." Oh no, I sound like Felgira, she thought to herself. She was one of the older handmaidens who was a complete control freak.

"Morwen one Problem? Grima" she said bluntly " Good luck"

Morwen groaned. "At least those were the dishes," she said as she left. SHe always regarded meals as a game, to be won or lost against the diners. She carried out the tray and set it down. It had pasties and turnovers of assorted varieties, with a very nice garnish. Grima, grabbing the garnish and mutilating it on his plate, said "His majesty would like more mead, if it doesn't interupt your...conversation." Morwen bowed her head and went to fetch more from the tapped barrel. Back in the kitchen, she said, "I think Grima heard part of our conversation." When the pitcher was full, she put it onto the table and said to Grima, "I hope it serves your purpose, my lord," and rushed back to the kitchen, Eowyn smiling into her cup at Morwen's well deserved jab.
(Yes it is subtle, but I imagine Eowyn as being sharp.)

Estel peeked out at Grima, and glared.
"If you touchs you, or does anything disgraceful.. let me know."
She wanted a reason... any reason... to get rid of that creep. Grabbing a tray of fresh fruit, Estel walked back to the hall and served the guests.
"Estel, what are you doing?" Eowyn asked.
"Serving."
"But you are a guest tonight. Sit, relax, and eat." She encouraged. Estel shook her head.
"Not unless those two hard workers get to join me."

Deawen was humilated again for the forth time in one day. she wished it was over Deawen started to cry a little feeling that she was alone none of the other servants had that problem. "oh stop crying girl it's pathatic get up and this time when walking don't pick up your feet so high only just enough to move quickly and if you have a free hand pick up the dress alittle." the voice coached Deawen moved her feet gracefully and light "thats a girl! you could pass as a lady and not a servant!". Deawen smiled.

Morwen told Deawen what she heard that Estel asked that they sit and not serve! Deawen giggled with delight but it then turned to a frown the thought of being near Grima was a nightmare.

Eowyn stared at Estel, than grinned.
"You're full of surprises, Estel Singollo." She shook her head in wonder. "Have them come out here and take a seat."
Estel, grinning broadly, ran to her room. She changed into a 'work' outfit, and ran back to the kitchen.
"My ladies," she bowed to Deawen and Morwen. "You aren't dressed for the party."
