''You see I'm quite scared of the dark, so its best for us to switch on the light.''
''Alright but can you at least tell me your surnam-''
I immediately stood up and grabbed Leola by the hand and pulled her up. ''We shouldn't waste any more time!''
''Well alright.''
I held her hand and we started searching for the switch of the light.
Despite it being daytime, the room was very dark and it was very hard to see anything. Throughout the time we had been searching, I was able to create small talk between the two of us and I found out that Leola is from the South provinces of the Asteria empire but to be exact she's from the city of Irievine. The city of Irievine is a place that snows all year long and due to that there's massive food shortages. Ordinary people would have moved out of Irievine but its inhabits are very proud and arrogant people that they stuck by their land and just came up with solutions to their problem.
Though most of their solutions weren't the best, they still kept trying to resolve their problem though the issue could have been solved by asking the state capital for assistance but them being them they are too arrogant and proud to ask for any assistance (Classic tsunderes).
Also Leola is actually a person of nobility though she isn't a high ranking one, she's the daughter of a Baron which gives her the title of "The Honorable".
After some time, we found the switch and turned on the light and I was amazed by the beauty of the place.
(I'm sorry I couldn't resist, this is how you can imagine the place if you want. Btw art not mine found it on Pinterest.)
I looked down at Leola and we both stared at each other before giving each other soft smiles.
''This place is very beautiful.''
''Yes it is. It reminds me of the sitting lounge I have back home.''
''Say Leola; aside from you can you tell me more about your family.''
''Well alright!''
She took her hand which was once being held by mine and put it on her chin and closed her eyes and began thinking. She stroke the same pose for a while and I hopelessly just blinked at her, she eventually came back to reality and turned her head to me and her eyes lit up.
''I will first tell you about my father, Tristan Duskbloom.''
''Tristan Duskbloom? Sounds familiar.'' I thought.
''He's a man built up of three major things trust, strength and determination. Despite growing up abandoned by his family, with the power of his determination and strength he quickly became a knight for the city of Irievine and after years of training hard he became a knight for the capital. He has been in many battles and always came back the victor, he eventually got a title as baron and worked hard to build up his status and in the process he met my mother, Ellen and they both fell in love and had Ivan and I.''
