[The place was huge. Long stairs helped people climb and reach all the outfits. Long cloth strips divided each garment and gave them the protection needed. There were more than half a million dresses. The oldest dress had been kept there for at least 50 years.
The legend goes like this:
Once upon a time, a king discovered her wife's green silk dress had the ability of portraying the personality of its first and oldest owner. Why did he discover it? A lady, who had asked the queen for a favor, gave her a lovely dress in return.
Every time the queen wore that dress she would become angry and so despicable. The king was mortified. He hadn't understood what happened to her on those days. Until, a strange day the lady came to see the king and asked him," Dear King, you are so kind to us.

Your duties will be: To be in charge of the ward, and find all those dresses." ]
