"Don't worry about Nathaniel, Damien. He'll turn up eventually. You know he can't miss a feast. Plus we're having all your favorites being served. How about instead of wanting to scold you brother you go attend to your future wife, hm?" Damien chuckled a little. "I think he needs more than a scolding Father." He replied but did as his Father suggested and went back to where Isabelle was, he waited until she had finished her conversation, she turned to him with a brilliant smile, he smiled back.
"Is it as you remember it then?" Damien asked, Isabelle had been once before, two years before her parents died. The castle had changed since then, a few things had been moved about. He heard his brother announced and watched as Nathaniel walked down the steps, he appeared well put together which was strange, Damien scowled when his Brother came over. "Brother, I'm surprised you actually came." He said after Nathan had bowed to Isabelle, she seemed more than welcoming to Nathan even after his display in the mourning, Damien supposed that was a good sign, the only person left to arrive was Sinead. "Have you seen your Fiancee Nathaniel?" Damien asked his brother.

As the night progressed Sinead had arrived just before they started the meal, a table had been set specifically for the royals, Isac and Amelia sat next to each other of coarse, Damien sat next to his Father Isabelle sat next to him, and on the other side Nathan sat beside his mother and Sinead sat behind him, Nathan seemed to be being friendly enough that Damien aloud himself to relax. Once the meal had finished he lead Isabelle over to dance, they talked as they danced a few small conversations, Isabelle seemed happier when other couples joined them in the dance. Damien smiled slightly. The night had been wonderful and when it came time for him to escort Isabelle back to her room the Queen seemed exhausted and very ready for bed, he wished her a good night at her door before heading towards his own chambers.
