Gwynevere had never been a stranger to trouble, sneaking around, or general mischief. But, she had never done something so risky before either? Granted the entire situation wasn't entirely her fault either even if she would be willing to take the blame for it. The day had been long and tiresome as Gwynevere had spent most of it taking care of a sick boy at the local orphanage. Of course she had Princess' Mariette's blessing to do so, but she was expected to be back at a decent time of day. But working through out the entire day not only caring for young William, but also doing some cleaning so she could stand being there there so long. Thank goodness the girl had been able to convince some of the other children to help her by making it a game. In the end, however she should have known better than to consider shutting her eyes for a moments break, or to rest her head. While it appeared to everyone else that the girls energy was boundless Gwyn had struck her limit for the day as she drifted off to sleep.
It had been the priestess who ran the orphanage who had awoken the young lady in the middle of the night clearly alarmed she had not already returned to palace. Thankfully William was on his way to recovery, but now poor Gwyn was in a whole new world of trouble. Her family was wrapped around her finger, but the Princesses simply were not. There were rules to being a lady in waiting, and if they were not followed things could turn out scandalous! Even if she did come clean by explaining what happened it would cause not only trouble for herself, but Mariette as well. And, hiding out at the orphanage simply wasn't an option as they would be very worried about her that morning and likely send out Tristan to go get her. Oh! And she would never hear the end of it from him either! No, she would simply have to find a way to sneak back into the palace with out getting caught by the guards. How hard could it be?
It was more difficult than she had first thought, even more so in a dress with healers bag; however, Gwyn had made it through the city on her own with out being followed, mugged, or kidnapped which made her a little over confident in her sneaking ability. Now on the outside of the palace grounds the girl's blue eyes looked over her next obstetrical warily, the palace wall. The main gate simply wasn't an option, but Breena had taught her how to climb if she couldn't find the servants door. Weren't there vines from the garden on the other side? Staying in the shadows the young woman picked up the length of her skirt in one hand so she could move quickly and silently. Who knew that the games her and Kael played would would have actually taught her how to dodge palace guards on patrol. Gwyn would wait in the dark for the guardsmen to turn their back, or move in another direction before moving once again as she still searched for a gap she could get through.
Finally, the girl found it, the section of the wall that was covered in vines that lead into the gardens! Moving over to the wall Gwyn tugged at the vines deciding that they ought to hold her weight well enough although she would certainly have to be careful not to slip. Letting the handle of her bag slide further down her arm the girl gripped onto the vines going to pull herself up onto the wall while trying to be as quiet as possible.

((feel free to skip ahead, have me change anything, or have him see her. I couldn't think of a better way to get in LOL!))
