	[[Myasara Illistim]], the most recent post-Lanenreat Argent Mirror, has reigned during a time of radical changes in Elanith. But rather than focus on the central woman in power, we take a look instead at the role of women behind the Peacock Throne, more specifically the Handmaidens, and the part they have played - and continue to play - in their sovereign’s shift towards idealism and egalitarianism.

	It is no coincidence either that we chose to dedicate this edition to the Handmaidens when you consider that the night sky will soon be dominated by a constellation of the same name. Clustered tightly about each other, the six stars of [[Zelia]]’s ladies-in-waiting will shine brightly in from day 21 of the month of Charlatos until day 3 of the month of Olaesta.

	The stars in general have always held us in their thrall. Some of us look to them for power, others for answers, and others just in sheer wonder, but there is something about those twinkling points of light in the night sky that are just plain fascinating. Lady Autumnn Goldberry, a sylvan spiritcaller and gifted hydromancer, shares her insights into what the rest of the year has in store for those born under the six spring [[Constellations of the Northern Sky]].

	Dressed from head-to-toe in a delicious ~~mulberry~~ and silver concoction, the diminutive elf was keen to share that her shoes were made by the talented Laphrael Miran'ta – a former Cordwainer to the Argent Mirror. She also gave a nod to both Laphrael and the glamorous Lady Corlyne Lancre (interviewed in our [[Elanthian Vogue: Lormesta 5119 \| Lormesta edition]]) in the design of her gown.

	With similar coloring, the Lady Silima Oneriel Illistim also opted to wear dark hues, which perfectly complemented her silver hair and pallid skin. It seems both Handmaidens know a thing or two about making a statement with their attire; such elegant young ladies!

	We took our seats in the Council Salon. The ladies thought it would be fun for us to sit and talk in its exalted surroundings, but perhaps that was because they hoped the sheer size and scale of the opulently furnished chamber - with the stunning diamond-inset avian mosaic above - would be a distraction. They were right!		We took our seats in the Council Salon.

	After several glasses of a rather delicious aged blackberry wine, nerves were settled - mine mostly - and the conversation flowed, despite ~~a brief~~ interruption from the Seneschal who left his nearby office briefly to hand some official-looking papers to both ladies.

	Handmaidens, or ladies of the Argentate, are usually single elven ladies of noble birth who serve as loyal companion, confidante, and advisor to the Argent Mirror. Their duties vary but generally include proficiency in the etiquette, languages, and dances prevalent at court, dealing with correspondence, embroidery, painting, music making, wardrobe care, personal needs, and keeping their sovereign abreast of activities and personages of note in her presence. Whilst it’s not necessarily part of their so-called job description, they can also be relied upon to know the latest gossip and discreetly relay messages – being the eyes and ears of the Mirror.

	The '''Dragonfly''' (Lumnea 2 - Lumnea 15) is beauty, and those affected by her influence are artistic and creative, usually graceful and well mannered. However, they often place too much stock in appearances, some might call them vain. The glint of afternoon sunlight on the bowl’s water revealed a shadowy vision of a great eagle soaring in a cloudless sky. Change is in store for you and everything is looking very positive. Spring 5119 will be a reawakening; you will be efficient, dynamic and creative, which means you have exactly what it takes to achieve your goals.

	Those whose birth is influenced by the '''Hammer''' (Olaesta 4 - Olaesta 18) embody strength, reliability, and perseverance with a tendency towards shyness. The still waters of the scrying bowl revealed a veiled vision of a man dressed in black. Spring is going to be a positive season for you, even though you may encounter some relationship problems. You are very disciplined and will be able to accomplish your goals if you follow the rules. Should you feel stuck in a situation, Eonak may guide your hand, otherwise rely on your intuition to see you through.

Should you feel stuck in a situation, Eonak may guide your hand, otherwise rely on your intuition to see you through.

	Those influenced by the '''Cat’s Paw''' (Olaesta 19 - Ivastaen 2) are quick and powerful, revelling in the hunt and the stalking of their prey. With a tendency to be quiet, eyes ever watchful for opportunity, they can sometimes be considered lazy by those who underestimate them. A light touch of the cool water in the bowl revealed a shadowy vision of an archer suggesting that you could struggle finding your place this spring with misunderstandings leading to disagreements. ~~She~~ counsels that you share your problems with those closest to you and they will help you to see more clearly.

	The '''Mistress of Adoration''', visible from Ivastaen 3 to Ivastaen 17, influences people to be warm, loving, and caring. Those born under Oleani’s constellation tend to be romantics and dreamers, often to the point of making poor personal choices and giving too much of themselves in their quest for love. The colors and shapes in the scrying bowl revealed a muddled vision of a lone figure walking down a narrow trail. Spring will be marked by relentless determination and change. Oleani will take control and make the important decisions. If you are unhappy with how things are going, this spring is the best time to make a change and work towards new goals. Don’t forget to take some time out for you as well to make sure you are happy.
