“Doll her up a little.”

The maids got to work immediately. They washed her face, put on makeup, and dressed her in a traditional white wedding dress, including a white veil. With her vision obscured by the veil, Ellinor could only see white. When she looked down, she saw the man’s fancy shoes in front of her.

Though his words sounded comforting, they actually put pressure on her.
