Primrose returned to her chamber with a smile still lingering on her face. She proudly showed the gift to Solene, holding up the soft white scarf as though it were the most priceless treasure in the world.
"My husband gave this to me." She hugged the scarf close, swaying it back and forth with childlike joy. Even though she knew Solene might think she was being a little silly, she couldn't stop herself.
But instead of looking annoyed, Solene's face lit up with excitement. "Your Majesty, this scarf is truly precious!" she exclaimed. "Its material is extremely rare. It's made from the fur of a mountain bear, a demon beast that usually lives high in the mountains and is incredibly fierce!"
She continued, "Scarves like this are hardly ever seen on the market because the fur is so difficult to obtain. Only the strongest warriors are able to bring one back."
