"This place is magical." She whispered only to hear a response from Aldric who was a step ahead of her. "Yes it is and that's why you should keep your hands to yourself and not touch anything." Though his response made her pout, it was for her own good.

"Why not?" Came her question that made him halt and turn to face her. "That's how it is." It was not a response that she was looking for but seeing that the man had no plans to explain anything to her, she continued to follow him the moment he continued to walk.
