─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: ✦. State Of Grace (Taylor’s Version) - Taylor Swift .✦ :☆ﾟ. ･ ───
Lenore walked down the familiar halls of Ninth House, marking the beginning of her final year. Already, there was an unexpected element to the year - the presence of her older brother. He was supposed to have finished his schooling the year before but for reasons unknown to her, he was coming back for another year.
The Enigma Stag performance that kicked off the Welcoming Day festivities was something Lenore always looked forward to at the start of the school year. This year’s was bittersweet, knowing that it would be her last, but Lenore had decided that she would rather make the most of every moment. Which was exactly why she had taken it upon herself to make her own mask for tonight’s masquerade ball. There had been a bit of trial and error and a lot of scraps of lace on her floor, but eventually, she was able to create something that perfectly echoed the vision she had for the ball. The mask matched the blue of her dress and to make those the main focus of the outfit, she put on a pair of black heels and simple pearl jewellery. She tied her hair back into a half-up style before fastening her mask onto her face, delicately placing a black lace shawl over her shoulders and heading towards the ball.
The splendour in the atmosphere of the ball filled Lenore with amazement and she smiled to herself, having a good feeling about the evening. She made her way through the ballroom, stopping every few minutes and saying hi to people she knew. She made her way over to the bar and ordered herself a gin and tonic. She scanned the room as she waited for her drink, wanting to take in the event from a different angle. A man with a fascinating aura caught her eye, sitting all alone at a table. She met his eyes but he dropped his gaze almost as quickly as he had found hers. With her curiosity being piqued, she made her way over to where he was sitting after being handed her drink.
“Mind if I join you?” She asked him, holding her drink delicately. Surprisingly, the mask wasn’t the most mysterious thing about him and Lenore was determined to find out more about him. Despite this, she still prided herself in being a lady and she would wait until permitted before joining him.
