It was a new day again and the people rose to the song of the tuner, they started another busy day again under the cool weather, while at the tower the little tuner was just singing the second song that day but half part of her wall was already on the floor, the bricks had gone weak, it's been centuries now and it couldn't even handle the fist of a teenager, to her she was going after the people's where about but any other person would transmit it as escape, she soon stopped her hitting and crawled out of her space to the dusty stairs.
While at the palace, Turlip picked the thermos flask on the kitchen counter and strolled towards the door, she decided to visit the tuner with some food, she could hardly wait to see her expression when she took a taste, she crossed the dinning hall and she was suddenly blocked by one of the men who was invited by the king the previous day, the man with the most wrinkles, "Mr Felix you are blocking my way" she said and the man smiled lustfully then took few steps close to her and immediately she stepped back "it might interest you to know that your mother already took things from me to lay with you" the man mumbled and Turlip yawed with a bored expression"I wonder what my mother took from miss Agatha's sex slave to make him so excited" she said and the man froze "Aga..., You know Agatha" he cried and Turlip smirked, "yeah, I do, and I also know your history with her, you don't really know how to hide things Mr Felix" Turlip muttered with a mocking gaze and the man suddenly fell to his kneels "I beg you please, don't tell Agatha, please" he cried with a pale expression; Agatha was his source of finance and he was like a puppet under her, she had warned him to stay away from other ladies including his wives and that was why he had to send his family abroad, if she should get a whiff of what just happened, he would be done. "I wonder if you would take back what you gave mother if miss Agatha stops financing you, well, I don't care, I just hope you never appear any where I am again" Turlip said, "yes,yes, I would stay as far as I can from you"he cried and fled immediately, "cowered " Turlip muttered and strolled out of the palace.
It was a sunny day that day and the town was as busy as usual, the tuner was releasing her songs but no one knew she had crawled out of her place and was in the first step of the stairs, she gazed at the oil lamp beside her with curiosity, the dazzling blaze attracted her, she tried to touch it but when she felt the burn she gave up the idea, she blew at it and when it flickered she smiled at her little achievement then she resumed her song again, outside the tower Turlip pushed the door open, she felt the song was a little louder than usual but she couldn't point out what was wrong, of course nobody noticed those changes because they never really paid attention to the tuner's songs they only knew it was a lovely melody, she fastened her cloth and strolled into the tower, it was cooler inside she began to wonder if the tuner ever felt something wrong with the temperature, she sighed and strolled up the stairs and as soon as she got closer to the tuner's place she suddenly froze, the tuner was out of her place, the girl didn't notice Turlip, she stopped singing when she noticed a wall gecko tottle in the oil she tried to pick it but she stopped immediately on remembering the burn, she silently picked a stick from the floor and used it to flick the gecko out of the oil then she smiled like a child who just got her favorite candy, she had a pure and childish aura around her that it felt too bad to touch her, just then she looked in the direction Turlip was standing and she revealed a happy smile, she moved her self down the second step, to the third step and to the fourth step then Turlip caught up with her "you got out" Turlip muttered with a smile and the girl smiled back foolishly, Turlip chuckled and looked up and when she saw the fallen wall she turned surprised, she didn't think the girl knocked down her walls to get out, "you completely knocked it down, it's such a beautiful work, I love what you did there" Turlip muttered and ruffled the girl's hair then she placed the thermos flask in her hand down in front of the tuner and the girl's eyes blazed with curiosity, "this is a thermos flask and in it is some snail soup" Turlip muttered and opened the flask, the aroma of the soup filled the air but the tuner wasn't enjoying it, she covered her nose with her hand and turned away and in the next minute she retched on the dusty floor, "are you okay" Turlip asked in shock, she never expected such reaction, she immediately closed the thermos flask and after seconds the tuner calmed down, "this is what we eat you know" Turlip said while the tuner resumed her plan of bringing good food out for the people
