Kayla tilted her head, her confusion mingling with a naive intrigue.
She blinked slowly, processing the unexpected visitor and her unusual offer, "Who are you?" she asked, her voice imbued with both wariness and a childlike wonder, yet feeling curious about this mysterious figure and her offer.
"This young lady is Silvia, a friend of yours from a neighboring kingdom," Silvia answered, her voice a conspiratorial whisper.
Kayla's brow furrowed, her mind churning through what she knew, "Silvia?...Ohhh..." Suddenly, recognition sparked in her eyes, brightening like stars, "Silvia Valentine?? Is that really you? The pretty young lady of House Valentine?"
With a playful yet low giggle, Silvia puffed up her chest and nodded, "This young lady is indeed Silvia."
Kayla's eyes widened with childlike wonder and disbelief, "You really want to play with me?"
