“Love? Come, Alice – You cannot be serious! Love is something written about in gaudy, vulgar novels to tempt young women into cheating themselves out of titles and favor by marrying beneath them.” She cocked her head to one side thoughtfully, taking up her fork in one delicate hand as she was presented with her plate and her friend was presented with hers. “Surely you cannot be so very naive as to think that love is the paramount ingredient to a good marriage? Men,” she counseled her dearly confused friend, “Are fickle creatures for all their profession of steadfastness. They will womanize. They will gamble. And in my mind the absence of love is small recompense to pay in lieu of a comfortable home and a disease-free marriage bed.” She smirked into her cup as she sipped the honey-water that she always took with her breakfast.

Alice Brandon - Noblewoman
Lady Liselle is almost like a confidante; someone who looks over and gives advice to Alice, though Alice is wary of her. They are neither friends or anything along those lines, though it is all a charade. Truly Alice is a little disturbed and scared of Liselle, but she will never say so.

Daine Merton
Daine cannot stand this newcomer. Their personalities clash, both being confident women that aren't afraid to say what they think. She also doen't like the feeling that she's being looked down at, a strong motion she gets around Lady Liselle. She can't to just have an arguement with her, to let their true colours show.
i.say.jump___you.ask.how.high {Servants}
Caden Brock - Steward
Caden has been in The Lady Liselle's servitude fore well over a decade now, starting when he was a boy of thirteen. Throughout these years, Caden has maintained his status as painfully devoted to his Mistress and doesn't intend for that to end any time soon. He is a confidant for her as well as her conscience at times. Onlookers comment that the dynamic could almost be friendly. Caden just sees that as what happens when one does their job.
Aida Benn - Lady's Maid
Aida is Liselle's maid. She does what she is told and keeps her mouth shut, though secretly she dislikes Liselle. Aida wishes she could escape from the servitude she had not so willingly gone into.[/right]
