"Come," Zilla says standing up and taking my hand, "Let us dine."
I follow Zilla through the many twisting corridors I've grown to know so well. Her castle is so much better and more beautiful than my father's. After a minute or two, we walk into a huge dining hall. Her servants bow and bring out the food. We sit down next to each other. One servant with Blond hair and purple eyes comes up to me, "I'm so glad to see you again! I'd be honored to be your personal maid during your stay again." "Thank you, Lily." She beams at me, bows, every time, and walks away to help all the other maids. "I'm so happy they enjoy working for me," Zilla says. I turn to see her beautiful smile. "Yes, they are all so nice and caring. My father's servants are so distant. Sometimes I forget they're human." I feel Zilla grab my hand, "Well I'm glad you're here." I smile at her. She turns towards the food sitting in front of us, "Let us eat. Before the food cools."
"I'm stuffed," I sigh wiping the corners of my mouth with a cloth napkin. "I am as well," Zilla stands up and rings the bell to call for her maids. Lily and the rest of the maids quickly show up and bow. "How may we be a service?" Lily asks as they raise from their bow. Zilla stands as she speaks, "We have finished." Lily nods her head, "We will have this cleaned u-" "Please," Zilla says, motioning towards the leftover food, "You may have the rest. Please, help yourselves." Lily and the others bow again, "Thank you so very much, your Grace." Zilla laughs, "I told you, please call me Zilla." I smile. For being the 'bad guy' Zilla has always been so sweet and caring. We both leave the room hand in hand.
