Familiar (4)

"Eleanor, you need to explain what you are talking about because it is not just me that you are worrying with your outburst. Why do you need to go to the palace?" Bryce asked as he stood up with her. 

Eleanor looked at Bryce and all the other confused faces in the room. She was sure the familiar taste she got when she drank the queen's tea came from the same remedy she grew up smelling. Eleanor was familiar with it so much that she became sick of the smell and her body would instinctively try to throw up as if she had drunk it. 

Eleanor was so comfortable in the palace that it slipped her mind this was what she had tasted. Now that she smelled it once again there was no one in this world who could tell her it was something else. It made sense that the remedy was masked by the strong scent of tea mix. It was something her mother did to help newer girls drink it as they were not fond of the bitter aftertaste.
