Lola smiled. Her first day as a knight was going well so far.
That was mostly because she'd been assigned to guard an unmarked wooden door deep in the castle and turn away any who came asking for entry.
She was a bit curious as to what she was guarding, but Lola hadn't peeked. Neither of the two castle staff she'd turned away had commented on it, either.
Suddenly, late in the day, the door opened and the crown prince stepped out. Lola stared at him and he just smiled sheepishly.
"Thanks."
And then she saw that he was holding a book.
