Daniel, the stable boy, introduced Prudence to Daisy's cell. It was as good a cell with all those thick bars. "Here she is," Daniel spoke in a fake manly tone, "Be careful with this one. She is a little tough on new people. However, you shall not worry, as I will be by your side." 

It took Prudence sometime before she realised what was going on.
