"I'm not one for gardening, but I'm sure I can help in some way." Charles agreed, "Let us then go to the gardens and gather."

Charlotte coughed over a smile, "We happen to be standing in the gardens, sir, modest as they are."

Smiling, Charlotte walked to the rose bush, bending over slighlty to snip the rose and a good six inch of stem. She continued this until her basket was begining to fill. Then she move on to the camomile.

Charlotte smiled, "That is quite all right. A still room is a place where you keep your medicinal herbs and your fragrent flowers. It allows the housekeeper, or the lady of the house, to make salves and medicinal remedies when needed."

"If you own a larger abode, you will have one somewhere. But likely as not, your housekeeper probably takes care of these things."

"Um.... I live completely on my own...." he said, "unnatural yes, but I jsut never hired someone after I fired everyone in a bout of depression."
