"Everything went well, young master," Elias spoke with a heave of relief when they got out of the study finally.
"You call that good, Elias? We are stuck in the forest till I show enough strength."
"But weren't we always in that part of the forest anyway, young master?" Clara chimed in with a chuckle.
Theo did not have much to say, but his mood became even grumpier, and they both didn't try to make it worse.

Only the silkworm was in the same box, munching on the fresh leaves a servant gave to it every few days.
He crouched and looked at the silkworm with a smile.
