At the behest of Erick, as soon as Mira was well enough to be on her feet, she began taking her daily morning walks around Avalon Castle.
Within the enclosure of the castle walls, there were hundreds of houses belonging to the thousands of warriors and residents of Avalon.
Outside the walls of Avalon were hundreds of thousands more Avalonian farmers and fishermen and ranchers, but of course, Mira was not allowed outside castle walls.
She had tried once. The gate guards were gentle but firm. Under no circumstances was she allowed outside the Avalon castle walls.
It was just fine by her. There was so much to explore inside castle walls that it would take a long time before she saw everything within Avalon proper.
The cobblestoned pathways winding through Avalon streets were worn smooth by a century of travelers and was easy to walk on.
