Tea Ceremony

Hans sat in his room around a small wooden table. Sitting across from him were the Princesses of Bohemia and Poland who had become Berengar's wards, and in many ways the only two friends that the young boy had. While Veronika was quite a bit older than the Austrian Prince, Natalia was of a similar age. 

The three youths were enjoying a bit of milk and cookies as they dined together. Since Natalia had arrived in Kufstein, she had a difficult time adjusting. However, Hans had been by her side every step of the way, acting as a listening ear and a shoulder she could cry into. He may be young, but he had learned much about dealing with the opposite sex from his father's actions, and took this time to cement his relationship with the two girls, completely aware of the plans his parents had for them.
