Jae
To say Jae was upset would be an understatement. Besides the fact that she was afraid of her mother, she could never let that get in the way of expressing her displeasure.
"Watch your posture, daughter." the queen commented without even looking at her daughter. "It is unsightly for a princess to slouch."
"We are in a carriage, mother." Jae said. "No one can see me."
Before the queen could respond, a small knock came on the door.
"Who is knocking when the carriage is moving?" Jae wondered aloud.
"It's Eosa." Eosa's familiar voice called.
"Eosa!" Jae squealed and threw the door open. The carriage came to a stop.
"Oh." Eosa said sheepishly. "I can just ride along out here."
The queen sighed. "If the king sent you along, you might as well ride inside the carriage like a proper lady." she eyed Eosa. "You're about my daughter's size, we can get you a proper dress as soon as we arrive."
Eosa grimaced, but climbed in anyways. The carriage moved forward once again.
The queen continued to sit stiffly and stare straight ahead of her. Jae gave Eosa and 'i'm sorry' look, feeling like speaking would not be the best thing.
Jae leaned back and stared at the floor of the carriage. They rode in silence for quite a long time.
Suddenly, the carriage rattled to a stop.
"Why are we stopping?" the queen yelled. "We cannot possibly have arrived at the summer estate yet?"

Siry or Jakills ready to kidnap them maybe?
