Lucien: Just wait here. I'm right back.

Elain looks bored Okay

Lucien walks away.

Elain: Walks through the garden until she sees something behind the three. Hello?
Sees a shy year-old boy standing behind a tree with curly blond hair and green eyes. He looks at her with wide eyes.
Hey. Hello.

Boy: Are you a High lady?

Elain Chuckles. No. I'm just... Just Elain.

Boy: You are beautiful Elain.

Elain: Blushes. What is your name?

Boy: Ash

Elain: What are you doing here Ash? Are you alone? Where are your parents

Ash: They... Are under the ground. They feed the plants. They give back everything they have received from nature.

Elain: Oh... But where do you live?

Ash: I sleep in the stables. With a horse. Everyone has forgotten him. I named him Cozy. Because he is soft and sweet. Chuckles softly. And sometimes he farts. I've left the stable door open but he always comes back.

Elain: Maybe I can take you and Cozy somewhere else. A safe place.

Ash: Shake his head. No. I don't want to leave the plants and animals here alone. The high lord allows thorns and weeds to grow, killing them. I have to protect them from it.

Elain: Sees his hands covered in scratches. You're a brave boy Ash. Takes the gloves she once received from Lucien from her pocket. Here. You can use this.

Ash: carefully walks over to her and takes the gloves. Thank you. Looks with bright eyes at her. Please don't tell anyone I'm here. Otherwise they'll take me out of here. But I really don't want that. This my home

Elain promised.

Ash: bows Thank you. High lady. Skips back into the forest

Elain: I'm not...

Lucien: Walks towards Elain. Ready to go?

Elain: I want to come back tomorrow.

Lucien: Smiles wide
