“Uh…” Kyle frowned sighing as he looked away. “Um…it’s the castle…” he said softly pointing ahead. Even from where they stood they could see a large castle in the distance.

"I still can't tell how far away it is from here, though." She didn't seem to mind that he was from the castle- it was as if it didn't mean a thing. To her, the distance was literally all that mattered right now. That, and her desire to understand more about this country, and her new friend.

Kyle looked at her a little surprised. “Your not…weirded out about me living at the castle? Usually if people know they get all funky and stuff.” He said with a frown.

"I mean, you've mentioned the castle unintentionally a few times now, and I wasn't sure why... But now it just feels like, 'oh, now it makes sense' so I decided not to think about it much. Besides, I'm friends with the 'gods' of my land. I don't see it as such a big deal if you live in a castle, you know?"

“Hm…I guess that makes sense.” Kyle said. “Well…to be honest I haven’t been completely honest with you. I usually don’t tell anyone if I happen across anyone when I do manage to sneak out…but you’ll probably figure it out anyway or hear about it. “ he said hesitating a moment. “I don’t really just live at the castle, I’m sorta the prince.”

"I mean, it makes enough sense. Living in a castle, having the guards looking for you... Kinda points to that." She chuckled a bit, smiling. "But does it really matter? Before that, you're my friend."

“Huh…usually people react completely different.” Kyle said. He then frowned looking at her. “But don’t you dare do none of that your highness junk. I hate all that proper stuff.”

"I think things like that are culturally decided anyway. Besides, calling a friend that would be weird."

“It’s just annoying.” Kyle said coming to a stop pointing at a house. “Is that your place?”

"I can imagine. The dragons would get mad when I called them gods, too." She laughed a bit, seeming more at ease with him than she usually was with people now. As she saw him stop to point at a house, she stared at it and nodded. "Yep. Did you want to come in?"
