Arrival Day
The days after the girls chosen for the Selection were a whirlwind, for everyone involved. The palace was in a race to be ready, as the girls were prepared for the journey of a lifetime. Someone came to each girl’s home to ensure they were healthy, their applications were accurate, that they knew the rules and what was expected of them at the palace, and to ensure everything was set for their families to receive compensation.
Soon enough, it was time for the Selection to begin. Each girl, dressed in a white shirt and black pants, was allowed to gather a few personal belongings to bring, though anything they would need would be supplied, including clothes. Each province held a celebration as a send off before the girls began traveling to Angeles.
Based on proximity, the girls from nearby provinces were seated on the same planes to Angeles. Upon arrival, the girls were greeted by a crowd of fans wanting to meet and take pictures, or receive autographs from the selected girls. Interacting with the public remained optional, though the process was filmed.
Upon arrival at the palace, the girls were escorted into a room where makeovers were being conducted with before and after pictures. The makeovers were extensive, more so for some than others. Starting with simply being washed throughly, some received haircuts, while others got hair extensions, or had their hair dyed a different color. Makeup, nail polished, their first dresses from the palace, everything. Finally ending with a quick interview, asking them about the process thus far.
Once a girl finished their makeover, they were brought on a quick tour of the palace and shown to their rooms. After being introduced to their maids and given an early dinner, the selected have an evening free. This is a time to get for them to meet each other, meet the Queen and Princess, and to prepare themselves for meeting Prince Beckett in the morning.
