((OOC- Yay!))
(Arianna, Tomen, Housekeeper Stara)
"Good day ma'am." Tomen said opening the door. "Mistress Arianna here is to be a page and the Trainig Master sent us to you."
Arianna stepped in and curtsied to the woman. "Good day." She said, once again feeling her normal self since the Training Master had not outright rejected her.

Stara listened as Tomen explained Arianna's presence and nodded. Smiling cheerfully she turned to the girl, "Good day to you young miss and welcome! My what a busy day, you're the second girl page I've seen today." Whipping out a cord knotted at set intervals, "Now let's just get you measured for uniforms." Talking while she did that, "You're allowed to wear your normal clothes to dinner and when you're not in class, training, or serving at table. If you've not brought a servant one will be assigned to your rooms for cleaning." Moving around to measure from a different angle, "They'll bring you hot water for washing and see to your laundry. But if you play any tricks you'll do your own laundry for the rest of the year." Finished she tucked the cord back into it's pouch and disappeared in the rows of clothing to reappear shortly carrying a bundle of clothing. "Here you are dear this should do you for awhile. Your sponsor will take you to the cobbler's later to be fitted for boots and such." She handed Arianna the clothing, walked over the a rack on the wall that was hung with keys, and picking one out came back over. "This is the key to your room. There's a room over there," she pointed into a corner, "to say your goodbyes and then I'll take you up to your room."

Arianna nodded at the appropriate intervals and took the clothing when offered. "Not necessary ma'am." She said and turned to Tomen, "Thank you for the escort Tomen, tell my parents I love them and will visit on the first holiday I can." She said.
"Very good Miss." Tomen replied and with a nod for the Housekeeper he turned and left.
"I do not have a servant so I would appreciate one being assigned to my room if it's not too much trouble. Generally I prefer to keep my own things neat and tidy but I'm not too good with laundry and I know I'm going to be far to busy to do more than pick up after myself." Aria said to the Housekeeper then with a smile and a nod to indicate she was ready to move on.

Stara smiled at Arianna, "Right, then I'll assign a servant to you." Once Arianna had finished saying goodbye to her escort and indicated she was ready Stara smiled brightly, "Ready now? Then let's get you settled in your room." Saying that she guided Arianna out of the room, closed the door, and lead the way to the pages hall. Stopping in front of a door about halfway down the hall she turned to the girl, "Here we are. This will be your room during your training. I see your luggage has already been sent up. If you need anything just let me know alright?" Patting her on the shoulder she left her to unpack and settle in.

(Arianna, Stara)
"Thank you." Arianna called after the woman and then set about moving her few bags inside and hanging everything up or putting it away in the clothes press. She left her door open so she could hear any other pages moving about. Maybe she could meet one of two of them before dinner...

Kalarina prowled the hallway looking for first years. It didn't take her long to hear voices from farther down that sounded like the Housekeeper bringing a new page to their room. Grinning she trotted down the hall to meet whoever it was. Seeing the open door Kalarina walked over and knocked on the door frame, poking her head in and calling, "Hello in there."

(Kalarina, Arianna)
Arianna spun around still holding a half folded shirt. "Hello. I'm Arianna. Just arrived obviously." She said with a grin. "Are you new too?" She asked since the girl seemed to be near her own age.

Kalarina grinned, "Nice to meet you Arianna. I'm Kalarina." She shook her head when asked if she was new, "Nope. This is my second year."

Aruanna smiled. "Oh good, maybe you can tell me if it's really as hard as my brother made it sound. He was trying to scare me out of becoming a page I think." She said with a laugh. "He's over protective." She added.

Kalarina laughed at the comment about her brother. "Most older brothers are like that. One of mine tried to talk me out of it too but he soon gave it up as a hopeless cause." Thinking, "Well it's definately hard. I mean you'll earn lots of bruises and sometimes worse. But the training master's alright, even if he is really strict and all."

"Oh I don't mind strict. As long as he's fair." Arianna said. "Which I can't imagine him not being and him in such an important position." She added. "He seemed nice enough when I met him for a moment earlier anyway." She said with a thoughtful expression.

Kalarina nodded, "Oh he's fair all right. He'd be fair if it killed him, he hates bias." She leaned casually against the wall with her arms folded, "The rest of our teachers are alright. Well except for the stuffy Mithran priests. I especially like our instructor on Immortals. She's a basilisk and does she have a sense of humor." Tucking an errant strand of hair behind her ear, "Oh when the bell goes off just before dinner stand out in the hallway in front of your door. Sponsors have to be chosen before going down to dinner."

"I almost forgot about the sponsors." Aria replied. "Do you know what family's currently have someone here? I'm from Olau." She added, turning from her unpacking to look at the other girl full on.

Geof rubbed his nose idlely. "Sooooooo.... You need a sponcer?" he asked, not really remembering what she had said last. The tall youth grinned at the small wirey child.

Smiling, "Well I didn't even know about sponsors." Rolling her eyes, "Older brother neglected to tell me." Kalarina had to think about that for a moment, "Well I'm from Amelien and I know there's a fourth year from Naxen. I've no idea where the other first years are from though."
