CLOUD'S CASTLE

There was the sound of scampering and hasty rummaging. It was almost as if the castle itself was quaking.
"How many subjects live in this castle?" Calibri asked as he listened to the conversations of the subjects as they hurried to clear the West Wing of the castle.
Cloud hummed. "Quite a few. As you know I know nothing of household management, so I have every sort of person I could possibly need living in the castle."
"How clever." Calibri said. Cloud grinned and Haochen suppressed the urge to roll his eyes at Cloud's beaming smile at being called 'clever'.
"Yes, this way, even if I leave the castle every now and again, I have magnitudes of people to take care of things."
"Very well done. I have a question, may I ask?" Calibri asked, turning his face in the direction Cloud's voice was coming from.
