Palace Castle looked stately and forbidding under the overcast sky. Dolly cautiously followed a man as they filed into the palace.
Only two days before, Tracy and the others had received confirmation that Emily was at the palace. The Southern spies decide to send Dolly into the palace to find a way to reach Emily so they can plan a rescue.

Soon after the man named Tony had shown his papers to the soldiers standing outside the gates, they entered the palace without any problems. " Today is your first day at work, don't mess it up." Tony reminded Dolly.
Dolly nodded and Tony led the way to the palace kitchen. Dolly had been at work since morning, and had tried to sneak out, but had not had the opportunity.
