A huge bump jolted me awake and had me check myself for any awkwardness while sleeping. My mind started to overthink about my mouth being parted and me drooling or placing my head by mistake on His Highness's arm when the road signs came into view.
"Why are we going this way?!" I asked in a shrill voice as I noticed the board show the way to Genasia.
"You said his abode and that is the place you lived and worked at."
"Are you being serious?! Does he even live there right now?"
"Of course his corpse doesn't. It is you who hasn't been very clear on your demands, milady."
'No, it is you who has twisted my words to place me in this predicament,' I thought to myself with an irritated tch. 'Do all of your people love torturing people in this manner?'
"Yes, they do, indeed," he said with a smirk. "Many of them have that kind of blood, you see."
