"From tomorrow, we'll begin our decorations!" Lady Flora announced with a voice that carried authority and grace.
At once, the hall erupted into cheers.
"YES!!" the servants chorused in unison, their voices echoing through the wide corridor.
The sound of excitement soon faded, replaced by the rhythmic sound of brooms, buckets, and chatter as everyone returned to their duties.
