The Arcadia Chronicles III: Wood Elf Quest

Weird Sounds

Third person's POV

Stein asked Sylvana You were working when you were young? Sylvana replied Y-Yeah, I want to make money of my own... she looked down ...so that I wouldn't depend too much on my parents.

Stein smiled I see.

Janus added I never thought of you Miss as the hardworking type.

A nerve appeared on her temple That's where the saying 'Appearances can be deceiving' steps in.

But Stein detected a hint of sadness in Sylvana's voice when she answered his question.

They walked for a while until Sylvana said, pointing to a wooden house That's where I'm living in. She said as they're before the door Feel free to enter.

The boys entered the place but Stein left his scythe outside before entering It might bring damages on whatever is inside. When he entered, he blinked in surprise for there's only little furniture - a small center table with a small vase sitting on top with a wilted flower in it, a small dining table with rickety looking chairs standing on the far end.

Stein thought as he looked around Her place sure is a bit gloomy, she's been living like this all her life? Sylvana said at the same time I'm sorry about the mess, I don't really have any visitors.

Janus asked, sitting down on a wooden couch Even your family or relatives doesn't visit you? Stein immediately looks at her, Sylvana pursed her lips Yeah, they went away. She said to Stein I'll just change my clothes, wait for a while.

Sure, take your time.

Stein sat down next to Janus Sylvana sure lives alone in this desolate house. Janus replied Well, this is her parents' place, it's no surprise that everything here is old. Janus grinned Hey, Sir, it seems like Miss Sylvana is in the middle of changing her clothes, why don't we peek like real men?
