Being the guests in a huge castle was so confusing but everyone was willing to point you in the right direction. I often had to ask a faun or dryad how to get to the library or the dining hall or even out into the palace gardens. Angela o the other hand refused to talk to the fauns because they had hooves and the dryads because they were to wild. I tried to explain that they just thought themselves free that's why they don't wear the clothes we do. As usual she told me t stop being stupid the Kings and Queens ruled the animals they should be able to make them wear the right clothes. I gave up and tried to find the library. Along the way which was a lot longer then i remembered it was last time, i ran into Edmund.
'Hello,' i smiled.
'What are you doing here?' he asked
'By the sound of your voice I am nowhere near where i want to be,' i sighed
'Where do you want to go?' asked Edmund
'I was trying to find the library but now i don't really want to go there,' i laughed.
'That's easy you just go down those stairs across the courtyard and up the stairs on the left then take the first right then the second left,' he said seriously.
I laughed 'ok very funny.'
'You want to go for a ride? It's easier to remember the woods,' he asked
'I don't know,' i hesitated
'There's not corridors and stairs' he promised
'Then I will have to go,' i laughed
'Ok follow me my lady,' he offered me his arm.
I took it 'Aurora just call me Aurora,' i said
'Like whys, call me Edmund.'
'Are you sure we are going the right way?' i asked
'Positive,' he replied
'Isn't the stables that way,' i pointed out
'Yes,'
'Then why are we going this way?' I asked
'There is always more than one way to get somewhere in this castle,' he smiled
'Great,' i muttered
'It gets easier with time,' he laughed
'Yeah how long,' i joked
'About a year or two,' he said
