"oh those? This is what we call Pièce de Fierté. It means Room of Male Pride. the whole house is filled with female potrait. so to keep the male morale up, they have potraits of past male that made a significant change in the Delacour Family. or in non-pride terms, its just whoever who catches my grandmama's eyes. my step father's potrait is that one."
Riiya pointed at a potrait 12th from the right. "He got up there a year after he married my mother. which to this family, it's quite quick. He got there because he's a politician for France. Oh. another fact. All of them are Muggle only. Delacour tries to avoid marrying Wizards. another pride reason. but i think its stupid."
Riiya walked to the center of the ballroom and swirled around. "when i first came to the Manor, i wanted so much to dance in this hall. But i couldn't. I was the black sheep. they wanted to keep me invisible from others. But after mom persuaded grandmama, i was attending ball after ball last year. I never get tired of it. So many beautiful gowns, so many weird looking muggles and wizards! and everyone is super nice."
