The enthusiasm the girls showed was a relief to Lena and she allowed herself to relax a bit as she listened to Priscilla talk. Indeed, her suggestion sounded nice, though the situation reminded her quite vividly of her home life, and she smiled at the thought of tea and cookies. Mairwen, though, seemed to be hungry at the moment and her stomach betrayed her if she'd been trying to hid the fact that her and her sister had not eaten much lately.
"Fine by me, let's go." Lena stood and opened the door for the girls, glancing back at the room before stepping out herself and following them. She felt that she could get used to living in a place like this but she was a bit worried and nervous as well because, since she'd left her home, she had never really stayed in one spot for too long. Soon, she became aware of the smells of food and followed the scents until she opened the door that contained the kitchen. Looking around, it was quite obvious that the staff were busying preparing various foods, she searched for a wandering eye. When she finally caught the eye of a man leaning near the ovens she gave a friendly smile and made her way to him.
"Excuse me, sir, do you think these girls could get something to eat? They're new arrivals and haven't eaten well, you see." Lena didn't need to say too much, the chef smiled to her, nodded at her request, and went off for a moment. When he returned he handed her a basket that, judging by the weight, had plenty to choose from within. After thanking the man she turned to the girls and walked out of the kitchens. "Come on, let's eat outside, it's such a nice day."
