The next day...
The Royal family had given Nyx and Nathan two separate lavish rooms to stay in during their time at the castle. The rooms were adorned with golden curtains, polished wooden furniture, and huge chandeliers that cast a soft, warm glow across the expansive space.
Despite the indifference between them, King Aldric didn't shy away from making his guests comfortable. He wasn't a stingy man at heart and wasn't petty enough to inconvenience his guests. In his own way, this was another way of showing his grandeur and superiority to the Cromwell family.
Of course, Nathan knew this as well, but he didn't comment on it and left the king to his scheming devices.
