The sun was sweltering hot as the english Ambasador strolled down the Plank to the dock of the god forsaken city of Constantinople. He was now wondering if bringing his only daughter Elizabeth to this place was right. But he quickly shook off the notion, yes he was going to be here for 4 or 5 years and now that he was a widower who would look after his most prized posession better then he.
The ship rose and fell on the barely there current, she could hear the water lapping at the sides of the grandest ship in the royal fleet and she sighed at the heat. 4 years in this place....4 long years. She wouldn't know wny one when she got back home, and all the balls she was going to miss. But this was a new adventure and she sighed heavily as the maid tugged one final time on the corset strings that sank her already tiny waist intoan 18 inch oval. Next came the dress and her hat and gloves and a parasol. The door was knocked upon. "Miss Elizabeth, your father is waiting for you on the docks." A polite officer calls forth as he was sent to get the lovely young woman he too thought along the lines of the ambassador. Why would he think to bring a english woman to this city were no god fearing christian woman should be.
Emerging from the room that had been her home for the last 4 months Elizabeth nodded to the officer and she smiled as she winked."thanks Johnathan, I do hope you and the rest will come and keep me company when you are off duty." Elizabeth cooed at the officer and moved past him to lift a skirt and head up the gangway steps her dress rustled as she moved and several heads turned to look at the delectable creature emerging form the bowels of the ship and then flick her wrist a bit as she opened her parasol and then walked across the deck without aid to head towards her awaiting father on the docks. The beginning of a new life awaiting her, little did she know how true that meaning would be.
