Tft 01 Beauty And the Beast
“She dropped like a twisting cat and landed with an ominous crack.A footman and one of the grooms reached her first. She was passably pretty but plain, wearing the muted colors of a villager. Her breathing was ragged and her face was tight with pain. “NO!” she screamed when the groom tried to roll her on her side.The footman and groom leaped backwards. They thought for sure she was unconscious, but the young lady opened and rolled her eyes. She didn’t cry, but she clenched her cloak close to her... body with shaking hands.The groom inched back to her side and extended a cautious hand to her skirt, intending to remove bits of glass that were digging into the cloth.“Don’t,” the young lady whispered. “My leg—,” she broke off, hissing in pain.The groom turned helplessly to the footman, who was already signaling a chamber maid to fetch the staff physician.Hesitantly, the groom crouched at the girl’s side and nudged glass away from her.“What happened?” a voice growled.The footman lunged to his feet and hurried to stand in front of the chateau’s lord, gesturing at the broken skylight—where night lurked like a pool of black ink—and then to the fallen girl.The groom stood as well and bowed to the lord, but he sank back into a crouch when the lord dismissed him.MoreLess
