"I told you not to call me that a million times." I said, rolling my eyes. I didn't like the attention and hated the weight of that title.
"And I told you a million times – that is who you are. Just like the Lady said, accept it and-"
"Accept my position for what it is and act accordingly, yeah. I know." I finished his sentence for him. "I don't need you to tell me that. I've heard it more times than I can count." I said with a sigh.
"Yet, you do not act accordingly." Lucius replied with a faint smile. "Which is why I question – how did you end up in this game?" He asked after a short moment.
"Pure luck. It wasn't Mother's doing." I said, then glanced at the sky. The sun had set; the colours of the sky had darkened already. "What about you? I doubt even Mother would be able to guess something like this would happen."
He chuckled. "I don't think the Lady's power is that great." He took a few steps towards the treeline. "A walk?" He asked. I nodded and followed him.
