#Chapter252
/"I...I need to go and talk to the lord,/" I mutter and leave immediately. I can’t look up; I feel embarrassed for some reason. Everything is going so badly, and I don’t know why.
The feast is over, and everyone is going to their homes. I enter Nasias’s mansion, ready to confront him. I feel the cold air brushing my cheeks, the hall is dark, and no guards are around. This isn’t normal.
I’m cautious, feeling like something is totally wrong and I need to be careful. I tighten my fists as I hear my footsteps, getting closer and closer to his office. The entrance is closed but I don’t hesitate to knock on the door. I hear his voice, inviting me in.
I touch the frozen knob and I push open, entering inside.
/"My prince,/" he greets me.
/"My lord,/" I say with respect.
/"Did you enjoy the feast?,/" he asks me.
/"Of course, did you?./"
/"I organized it, of course I did!,/" he says laughing.
