— ☩ “Over there. The castle. I wish to see it as close as a foreigner possibly can.” It was a simple enough request. Invitations were just some of the many things Ingus could not say ‘no’ to, especially if the approach had been personal, face-to-face. Seth had come up to him during his leave and asked him to visit his home of Cornelia, with eyes exuding persuasion that coaxed him to accept. Needless to say it won him over, with him tucking away stacks of papers lettered to the margins with legalities under a small desk—all left to accomplish some other time.
“It bears many similarities to Sasune’s own castle—though I must say that ours has two spires, whereas yours only has one.” He looked up to Seth, a distinct glimmer peppered over his eyes. “You would not think that seeking passage would cause us much trouble, yes?”
