When I woke up, I felt rested. It's like I've had a good night's sleep after a few sleepless nights, and this feeling is just a fairy tale.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a clear, blue sky in which birds were flying freely. I wish I could fly freely too. And to do this, you should find Umbra, and try to explain that all this is just a big misunderstanding.

After looking at the sky for a couple more seconds, I squeezed my eyes shut. I'm a misunderstanding! How can I explain something to her when I don't know or understand anything myself?

Sighing heavily, I got up from the bench. Wow, my back is numb.

Stretching sweetly, I looked around, and then continued my way through the huge garden of white flowers. I did not walk for very long, about five minutes, exactly until the moment when I saw through the tree trunks walls trimmed from bushes with white roses. If the jay also sings, I'll run away from here.

But apparently there are no jays here, and that's the only reason I started looking for a passage through the wall.

When I found it, I regretted starting the search.

— Oh, there you are, young guest! A familiar voice sang. This is the maid with the pinkish eyes. Is it worth shouting already?

— You just arrived, and you've already added to the problems. - The second one said venomously. If she doesn't like me that much, then let her go to hell.

— Veni, calm down! - It was the second time she was pulled back. "This girl is a guest of Mistress Umbra. We owe her a warm welcome. Do you hear? A warm welcome.

Can I just go to bed? You've made me tired again.

I slapped my cheeks sharply and loudly. That's it! I want to go home - I need to find this Umbra of theirs.

— Ladies, I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I said, forcing a slight smile. "Would you mind taking me to your mistress?"

"Veni" apparently lost any desire to be sarcastic from my words, and she just stood half-sideways to me, crossing her arms over her chest. But the second one, who walks with long pigtails, cheered up even more.

"Oh, miss, she's very close! There is a royal greenhouse in the middle of the maze, and lunch will be held there. I think you will like it there, you have never seen such beauty before-

- what? I stared at her, forgetting about the smile and other standards of decency. - The Royal greenhouse? - my head became empty, I felt sick, and my emotions became uncontrollable, which was very dangerous. And yet I was able to warm up a little self-control to a very interesting question for me - Would it be difficult for you to answer one question? Where are we now?

— Um, well, in the royal garden? - She said, looking at me strangely. No, that's not the answer!

— No, not that specific. In which state?

— Miss, well, you give it! We are in Druadales.

Aww. Well, it could have been worse. Probably.

Should I laugh or cry?

I'm on the other side of the continent, damn it!

Well, I shouldn't think about it. As soon as the full moon comes, then I will return to everything that is happening.

By the way, what is the date now? The last time was the fifteenth. Kind of.

While I was diligently trying to switch to something else, the maids looked at each other. And finally the blonde spoke:

"Okay, miss, we need to hurry, mistress is not supposed to wait!" - She sang the same way. Maybe she's

Oh, is the lady waiting for me? Why didn't you say so earlier?! This is great news! We should hurry before she doesn't want to listen to me anymore.
