Retaining
Did you know that Their Majesties are not supposed to carry anything?
They each have a special person, called a Retainer, who follows them
around and carries their bag, their cup, and anything else they need
carried. Retainers also hold open the door for Their Majesty and take
a few steps back when they are having a private conversation. Retainer
shifts are an hour long. People who are 12 and up may retain on their own,
or a younger child may serve with a parent. (We recommend upper elementary
school and up for this job.)
