Chapter 145: Something Dull

Serenica was a bit terrified by the idea of intruding into the dream of a stranger, let alone a Lean, and one that was probably not as enamored with her as the fair prince was. She thought of herself as an honest woman, so, naturally, she voiced these concerns to the Dreamer, who nodded, seemingly understanding her distress.

"You have a less than satisfactory relationship with her?" Serenica asked.

"Not every mother is worth the title," he said and grimaced.

She didn't want to push him to reveal anything he didn't want to tell her.
