Capítulo 286: Strange Things

Nathaniel was there to welcome our group as soon as we arrived at the palace. He then escorted us to the east wing where my room would be while I live here. In my whole 19 years of existence, I have never thought that there would be a time that I would get to live in the palace, even temporarily. It's just… I don't know… surreal?

"This place is closer to the tower thus the emperor wanted you to stay here so you could feel more assured," he said as he showed me the room in its entirety.

My eyes roamed around the unfamiliar surroundings I would now call mine. Everything is new to my eyes, the bed, the decorations, the ambiance in general, and the view. I thought of the scenery I have grown to love after seeing it every day and then compared it to now. Instead of the rose garden I personally cultivated, it was just green hedges. 

Although I could clearly see the arcane tower in the distance, it still felt a little empty inside my heart.
