The carriage moved gently as Ariana sat on the other side, while Leah, beside her, held the baby gently in her arms.
It was already morning, and the sun was beginning to rise. The rain had long since died down, and Ariana was now wearing a lavender floral gown—the color and style she had developed a liking for over the past few months.
Ariana was also curious. She had not expected that when they said they would be taking her somewhere, it would mean outside the palace building. This place was really big, because right now, they were using a carriage which meant there were still places she had no idea of. Finally, the carriage stopped.
"Lady Leah, is there another castle?" Ariana asked.
Leah, who was still getting used to Ariana's voice, was silent for a while before she nodded respectfully.
"It's not really a castle, Luna Ariana," she explained. "It's more like a duplex…not as big as the castle, but still large, with twenty-five rooms."
