Lord Vangheart, Lady Vangheart, and their daughter Gevherriz Vangheart Tyrell walk over to where Edith and Lyanna are.

As they approached, Lord Vangheart offered a warm smile and greeted, "Hello, Edith." It's a pleasure to see you this evening." His voice carried a tone of genuine warmth, reflecting the festive spirit of the Winter Solstice Ball. Lady Vangheart and Gevherriz stood beside him, their expressions equally welcoming as they exchanged pleasantries with the two friends.

Edith smiled brightly in response to Lord Vangheart's greeting. "Hello, Lord Vangheart! It's wonderful to see you and your family this evening." She glanced at Lady Vangheart and Gevherriz, adding, "Lady Vangheart, Gevherriz, I hope you're both enjoying the festivities." Her tone was warm and inviting, perfectly matching the joyful atmosphere of the Winter Solstice Ball.

Lady Vangheart smiled graciously at Edith, her eyes twinkling with warmth. "Thank you, dear Edith! We are indeed enjoying the festivities. The Winter Solstice Ball is always such a delightful occasion, filled with laughter and joy. It's wonderful to see familiar faces and share in the celebration with friends like you."

Gevherriz beamed at Edith, her eyes sparkling with delight. "I'm truly enjoying the evening, Edith! The ambiance is truly magical, wouldn't you agree? The music, the decorations, and all the wonderful people around us make this Winter Solstice Ball such a joyous occasion. It's a pleasure to celebrate together!"

Edith smiled warmly at Gevherriz, her heart swelling with agreement. "Absolutely, Gevherriz! I couldn't have said it better myself. The atmosphere is enchanting, and being surrounded by friends like you makes it even more special. The music sets such a lovely tone, and the decorations are simply breathtaking. It truly is a wonderful celebration, and I'm so glad we can enjoy it together!"

Everyone was nodding their heads in agreement.

Edith turned to Lyanna with a beaming smile. "Lyanna, I would like you to meet Lord and Lady Vangheart," she said, gesturing to the elegant couple beside her. "They are dear friends of mine and a delightful addition to our celebration."

Lord Vangheart bowed slightly, his demeanor regal yet warm. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Lyanna," he said, his voice smooth and inviting.

Lady Vangheart, with a graceful nod, added, "Indeed!" The joy of such gatherings is magnified by the company we share.

Lyanna returned their greetings, feeling a sense of warmth in the camaraderie that filled the air. "Thank you both! "It's wonderful to meet you," she replied, her smile reflecting the festive spirit surrounding them.

Edith glanced around, her heart full as the lively music continued to play, drawing everyone into the magic of the moment. Then Edith introduces Lyanna to Lady Gevherriz.

"Lady Gevherriz, may I present to you my dear friend Lyanna," Edith said, her voice ringing with excitement.

The elegant lady turned, her eyes sparkling with interest as she extended a hand. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Lyanna. I hope you are enjoying the festivities as much as we are!"

Lyanna nodded her head in agreement. "Please, the pleasure is all mine, Gevherriz. Yes, I am. The ballroom is beautiful. Edith and her family know how to throw a wonderful ball."

Gevherriz smiled warmly at Lyanna's words. "I entirely agree, Lyanna. The atmosphere here is simply enchanting, and Edith's family truly knows how to create a memorable experience. It's wonderful to see everyone so joyful and celebrating together. I'm glad you're enjoying yourself!"

"Thank you," Lyanna replied, her eyes sparkling with excitement. She glanced around the room, taking in the elegant decorations and the sound of laughter that filled the air, feeling grateful to be part of such a magical evening.

Gevherriz smiled warmly at Lyanna and asked, "Where are you originally from?"

Lyanna turned to Gevherriz, her smile widening. "I'm originally from Germany," she said, her voice filled with a hint of nostalgia. "It's a beautiful country with rich history and culture. Then I and my family moved here about ten years ago."

Gevherriz nodded appreciatively, intrigued by Lyanna's background. "That sounds wonderful! What made you and your family decide to move here?" She inquired, eager to learn more about her family's move.

Lyanna paused for a moment, reflecting on the journey. "Well, my parents wanted to seek new opportunities and explore a different way of life," she explained, her eyes shining with memories. "They thought it would be a great adventure for all of us."

Gevherriz smiled at what Lyanna said. "Where did you and your family move to?"

Lyanna's excitement was palpable as she smiled back. "We moved to Colorado," she replied, her voice filled with enthusiasm. "The mountains are breathtaking, and there's so much to explore. My family and I just love the outdoors. It really feels like a fresh start for us."

Gevherriz nodded in a pleased tone. "That sounds wonderful!"

Lyanna agreed with Gevherriz. "Thank you."

After a moment of comfortable silence, Gevherriz added, "Would you like to hang out for the rest of the ball?" It would be nice to get to know each other better."

Lyanna smiled brightly at the suggestion. "I'd love that! It's always enjoyable to meet new friends, especially in such a beautiful setting."

Gevherriz nodded her head in agreement. "I agree."

Edith smiled as she listened to the conversation unfold. "I'm glad to hear that you both want to spend time together," she said warmly. "But I should let you know that I'm going to join the rest of my family for a bit. They're probably wondering where I've wandered off to."

Lyanna turned to her, a hint of disappointment in her eyes. "Oh, okay. I hope you have a lovely time with them."

"Thank you! "I'll catch up with you both later," Edith replied, giving them a friendly wave before heading off to find her family.

As she walked away, Lyanna and Gevherriz exchanged glances, eager to enjoy the rest of the evening together.

Gevherriz looks at Lyanna with anticipation. "Shall we?"

Lyanna nodded her head in agreement. "We shall."

As they walked deeper into the elegantly decorated hall, the soft music and laughter around them created a warm atmosphere. Gevherriz pointed toward a group of guests engaged in a lively dance, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Shall we join them?" She proposed.
