章 64: An Eccentric Ruler 2

"Um, can that even be called a castle?" I asked

"No, it can't!" Luna replied with a bright red face. She seemed to be embarrassed by her mother's actions. I guess maybe she was worried about being connected to strange things.

"This is pretty par for the course for that woman," Carin chimed in.

"Lana has always had a fondness for over-the-top things."

Lana, huh? So she knows her by name. It sounded like the two had some history together. There had to be a story behind it. As we continued a steady pace toward the palace, I decided to probe a little into the subject.

"You two know each other, then?"

"We do. I was sheltered as a guest for a time in the palace when I deserted. Lana took me in and looked after me until I eventually met Vivienne and left this country behind."

"Even though you were an enemy?"

A bit of a shorter chapter today. It's little under 1400 words. I probably could have kept it going for a while longer but it would have ended in an awkard spot, and I want it to transition into the next chapter smoothly.

Anyways, let me know what you guys think of Lana. I think she is fun, but it would also be completely understandable if some people found her annoying.
