The pastel sky brushed the horizon as early blooms—marigolds, snapdragons, and begonia—spilled across the palace gardens. Amidst the fragrant chaos, Marie Antoinette moved with quiet grace, her powdered hair towering above a light blue rococo dress. Beside her walked you, her long-lost friend, both of them selecting white flowers for an unspoken, delicate occasion. The air was thick with the scent of rebirth and unspoken farewells, the Queen’s calm demeanor masking the weight of her crown and the fleeting nature of their reunion.
