What's the occasion that it needs this much decoration?
Well let me tell you, it is the ball that was celebrated every 12 years, well in a matter of fact every King of the clan found his Queen in this ball only, for that every maiden of Royal family and high business family around the world came on this day for wooing the heart of the most powerful King in the world.
But, but my dear friends things are not easy as it seemed or more like sounded, for there is a contest, and the maiden who wishes to woo the King has to participate in it, as it was mandatory.
For having the King, first, the lady has to participate in the Royal contest, a contestant has to find the Royal ring of the previous Queen that was hidden somewhere the ball would be held by one of the members of The Royal family after that only the lady winner would be allowed to dance with the King himself.

And if the saying is taken in regard and the King is wooed, she will be the future Queen of the most powerful in Modern Royal hierarchy.
"Move your hands, fast girls, we don't have a whole year for the task, cmon" Semma, the head maid, of The Royal's shouted at her fellow companion.
It was the important day which had arrived after 12 years, Royals, media personalities, politicians, mafias, which included the Indian Capones ' The lethal triplet' as they were King's Bestfriends, all around the world are invited were to arrive.
It was Royal fame at stake, a single mistake, and the Beast King would not hesitate to serve their heads instead of dishes.
" Everyone is here but why does it seem like someone is still missing," Seema asked one of the maids.
" Head maid don't you know King's little mistress still in her beauty sleep" she answered in an annoyed tone.
On hearing this Seema was fuming
How dare she
What does that wh@re think of herself
She dashed to Shivanshi's room, surely keeping this in mind, to give her earful more she will inform The Lord about it.
And then nobody would be able to save her.
As the head maid forcibly entered the room even after knocking for an nth time no one was opening it.
" OH MY GOD" she gasped loudly.
Wait, but why?
Shivanshi was lying lifeless there or more like in deep painful sleep after yesterday, her back facing Seema.
All her wounds though she dressed it up as perfectly as she can herself, still it was open here and there.
And that's what came in sight of the head maid, it was a sight to send a shiver down someone's spine, all the opened part of telling a story of his cruelness.
It was deep, red, if slightly touched blood would surely leak out as it was still fresh, sure as hell they were going to leave a mark.
Yet then also a wicked plan stridden in her mind, this was not enough for her, she wanted her to suffer more.
So she locked the door of her room and went away tossing the keys in her hands.
On hearing the sound our nymph slowly woke from her slumber, with difficulties slightly less than yesterday she sat on her bed.
She moved the door only to find it locked, she knew it was someone knowingly doing it, but did not matter to her.
Today is a day of great happiness for her, on this day only years back her mother was born, the kindest soul she ever met, the prettiest she ever laid eye upon.
Every year on this day she used to celebrate with orphanage kids baking cakes and playing, she would never let this, at least this day, get spoiled by his torture of yesterday.
She hurriedly gave herself a fresh routine and came out of the bathroom wearing a simple t-shirt and jeans, the only pair of casuals she had for an outing.
She took 250 rupees she had and stuffed it in her pocket and made her way to the window, she would return by night surely no one would notice her?
She had a uniform that was specially provided to every maid whenever something special happened in the castle, so there would be no issues with clothing.
Tieing her hair in a ponytail she applied a little balm on her heart-shaped lips, making sure she didn't look pale due to pain, checking no one was around as everybody would be busy preparing, she jumped out her window and passed through the gate of the castle, dodging the gate saying she was out to buy some groceries they also allowed.
Giggling she made the way out, no one would stop her now.
She ranged the bell on the orphanage door, can not hold the giddiness, sure they will be angry with her after she was visiting them for months.
" My child " Sr. Avery grabbed her in a bone-crushing hug, tears willed in the old nun's orbs after seeing her beloved for a long time.
She broke the hug , and peppered her face with kisses while Shivanshi was in pain but all went away after seeing her happiness, her tears told how much she missed her.
.
" My child how are you?, did you forget your mother that you don't even bother to visit," Sr. asked with pain in her voice, she missed the girl dearly.
"No no, but she was blocked by a huge bundle of little happiness that came crashing down on her, with all them above her Shivanshi couldn't possibly take the weight, she fell with them above hugging her tightly.
" Didu we missed you" came the childish voice of little Niya
(Elder sister)
Soon' Didu ' filled the whole area, Shivanshi was having a difficult time assessing them, so Sister Avery decided to help her.
" Children let her breathe, I am sure she is here to bake something with you and play all day"
"Didu what you brought for us" Niya again questioned.
On hearing this Shivanshi's face fell she don't have money enough to feed herself, how can she bring something for them?
" I am sure she came in hurry today, no problem she will make something with you all" Sr. Avery answered as if sensing her discomfort and handling the situation.
Soon after the refreshment, everybody retired to their room, after getting a promise from Shivi that she will return soon this time.
BUT SHE DIDN'T KNEW IT WOULD NEVER BE FULL FILLED
As she entered the office of Sr. Avery, she sees her in deep thought with a worried expression.
" Sr. everything is alright ? " she asked with a frown.
" Everything is perfect my child with God's grace" she hated lying to her, but a kind soul in front was suffering much more than anybody could think of, yet her face was always adorned with an angelic smile.
" Sr. something is wrong I know, Please tell me, by every means I would do my best to help you" answered her, true she can go to any length to keep them safe this only places her mother's memory is safe perfectly, she can not lose it.
Sr.Avery knows she is a stubborn child when this type of matter came into concern, she had no option but to tell her.
" Our land is under The King and his order we have to leave the land within 3 months" she answered with a defeated sigh.
