King Trex waited for the lift to stop. When is does, the surroundings were like a dungeon of sorts. Stone bricks with moss on them, the stone arch ways have cobwebs in the corners. It was spooky to say the least. The king moves aside letting his Queen and nameless pass him. The queen draped an arm over Nameless's shoulders as she leads her threw the dark and dimly light, by lantern lit halls.
"So...Ms. Ever-Flame-" The king starts, but Nameless interrupts him, "Just Nameless my king."
He nods. He stops briefly and turns around to Queen Sora and walked backwards, "Well Nameless..." He says in a joking manner, "We have much to discuses..." The King has a small smirk as the queen grins in joy. The queen steps towards Nameless's right side,
The King walks down towards the lantern lit hallway, the stone archways covered in mosh and cobwebs, the queen followed him, and after a second so did nameless. She looked around her surrounding areas, most of it was the same. As the king turned to the left as the hallway had a crossroad between left and right, the queen follows but nameless looks at the right side with curiosity and wonder, before the queen calls for her. Nameless reluctantly follows down the left corridor.
Nameless looks at the walls. They probably had a lot of secrets, due to how old and worn they looked. These walls must have a lot of stories to tell.
"So Nameless what do you know about your father?" King Trex asked with his back turned to her,
"I knew my father knew the two of you very well but not enough for you to consider me family. At least from what mom told me. She always called me Medusa a lot." Nameless said with a sorrow filled face.
The king and queen stopped in their tracks. They sharply turn to Nameless. "What." They say at the same time. Nameless shrinks in fear and cluelessness. "Did-Did I say something wrong?" The queen sighs deeply "Not you entirely about you. Your...difficult mother..." Queen Sora said with venom as she talks about Nameless's mother.
A flight of stairs dawns on the three of them, the king and queen pulls Nameless in between them, the three of them collectively walk up the stairs and into the storage room, their staff opens the door for them welcoming them back.
Nameless opened the door leading into the tower, and closed it behind her as she climbed the stairs leading to the very top of the tower, her room. When she finally made up the stair case and onto the landing, holding her room she panted, those were almost 200 stairs alone. She opened her door to see a lavish bed room, a wooden desk, and queen sized bed with black and purple silky sheets. She was awe struck. Her eyes glided around the room as the other door caught her eye, she slowly walked to it and opened it, inside was a master bathroom and two more doors.
She picked the left door, when she opened it she was met with a walk in closet, Ball gowns, crowns, headpieces, simple dresses and other fancy and fashionable cloths. Nameless's jaw fell as she saw that it wasn't just one story, it was three stories of clothing, and shoes! Mostly heels, but there were some simple boots in there too. She exited the door and went into the right door.
In the right door, a huge library, books on every shelf, a spiral stair case leading down the main level of the large library. When she reaches the main level she sees the 7 levels of book shelves each filled with a different book. Nameless has never seen so many books in her entire life, not even in her public library. She looked around the entire library only to see books from left to right. She remembered the Queen telling her about the outfit picked out for her. She left the library and up the spiral stair case.
When she entered back into the bathroom a maid was waiting for her, "Good day ma'am! I am Mary! your personal Maid!" the lady says as she moves to the left revealing a dress, it was a black and purple skin tight dress, the purple was on the bottom, it fades from the black into a dark purple. Nameless's long brown flows down to her waist. Mary the Maid gave her black heels and tied her hair into a fish tail braid and change the tips of her hair to purple to match her dress. Mary smiled, "you such a beautiful young lady!"
Mary then opened the door to the exit of the tower "Time to get to dinner, Ms. Ever-Flame!" She steps away from the door.
