Hilda see's who it is

Hilda emerged from her room a few minutes later, dressed in her finest remaining silk clothes and wearing her formerly second-best set of armor (it would probably take a few days to track down the one she lost in the woods).

At Sally's suggestion, she had spritzed a little perfume on, to help hide her otherwise *ahem* noticeable natural odor (she didn't have time to bathe).

"How do I look?" Hilda quietly asked the admiring Sally.

"Like the greatest knight in the land!" Sally beamed back, still as utterly smitten with her boss as always.

Hilda blushed and giggled before heading towards the keep's grand hallway.

"Now announcing, her ladyship, Hilda Brandt!" Sally happily bellowed as Hilda entered the room, her confidence returning as she approached the armored stranger who had been waiting for her.

"Hello, I was told you wished to see me, miss..." Hilda said.

The woman turned around to look at Hilda, and then both froze in shock.

"Oh no, not you!" They both said in unison.
