《Freya》IIS. Extra: Everyone Thinks That Something Was Off
Advertisement
Rumours spread fast like wild fire, whoever said that couldn't be more correct. It was only during that morning that Lady Freya started acting unusual and the news about that went from person to person inside the estate. Because of that sudden change in the master's behaviour, each and every one of them were not sure if they should be merry or not. While on the bright side: lady Freya's personality had became more agreeable, that was undoubted. The other side was: they were all worried about their master and was concerned of her well-being. 'Had she perhaps hit her head somehow when waking up?' Said a maid. Most of the residents began sharing their stories at night and went theory-crafting about what might have had happened.
'It was a rather strange morning.' The chef said. 'Usually, when I make breakfast, lady Freya would always find a fault with her keen sense of taste. "The temperature is not right", "The quantity is too much", "The texture doesn't please my tongue", "The flavour is trash", etc, etc. She would then pick up her plate and throw it cruelly to the ground in front of me and I would have to remake breakfast. However, this morning, that wasn't the case. She ate my breakfast as if she actually enjoyed it and said nothing ill! Instead, she did the opposite and told me that it was a delicious breakfast and that she would be delighted to have it again the next day. A compliment coming from her mouth is something I could never imagine before! Truly, that is odd!'
'Miss Freya is a perfectionist, that is my opinion.' The maid shared her story. 'She would find something to complain about and when she does she would not restrain her fury. That's just how she is and I've grown used to it. So, when the mistress didn't scream at me when I broke her favourite cup by accident this afternoon, I was honestly shocked as I thought she had grown tired of me and planned to dismiss me. Instead, she acted cooly by saying that everything was fine. "Don't worry about the cup," she said, "you're not hurt from the shards are you?" Since when was Miss Freya a kind lady? She's usually a tyrant and I thought that I was dreaming. I pinched myself on the cheek and she giggled, saying that I looked stupid doing that. Am I still dreaming?'

There were more stories, but the point of all of them were the same: that the mistress was acting strange and unlike the lady they all knew. 'I think she hit her head.' 'Perhaps she had a life changing dream which made her see things in a whole new perspective?' 'Maybe she finally found a fiance afterall! That would explain why she looked happy!' There were many theories regarding the matter. But, in the end, a question stood on top of all others:
'Who is she?'
