In preparation of Alhazred's wedding to Cassima, two sets of serving wenches entered the Castle of the Crown. The first set of serving women enter the castle before the wedding plans are announced to the general public. They was plenty of work to be done, and they had no time to doddle. They had to clean up so that Cook would not worry himself over the wedding preparations. Later after the formal announcement was put into town, more serving women showed up, they were quite late.
