Claudia brushed a lock of hair behind her ear and hazarded a smile at Princess Ayame. Should she help her clean up? That would be the only polite thing to do, but Claudia hadn't ever touched cleaning supplies in her life. This really was an odd kind of gathering. Claudia decided to risk it and gathered her skirts around her before taking another rag out of the cupboard and joining Ayame on the floor to clean up the water. From her position down on the floor she got a better look at the other lady. She was pretty, and Claudia envied her hair...as she'd said to Samuel Winters, dark hair was the fashion in Orcade. Perhaps she could try dyeing her hair...
"So, um, what is your name, my lady?" Claudia asked, sitting back on her heels. She thought briefly of the state of her dress, but after the mud she supposed that a little more dirt wouldn't do any harm. "I'm Princess Claudia. Of Oracade." She added the last bit after a pause. Normally she didn't have to say what country she was princess of!
