Sam and I followed her father away from the Dining Hall. ( I wonder what he wants to talk about.) I thought as we went down the corridors. There were windows everywhere making it brighter and warmer. I looked outside as I walked feeling the warmth on my face. (It seems to be summer outside... I wonder what it's like out there.) I thought. (I haven't been outside since I came to this world. I wonder if it's similar to the world I left.) I continued to look. There was a courtyard as large as a football field. It was filled with a labyrinth of bushes covered in white flowers on one side and the other was open and airy. (So beautiful) was all I could think. " Ignis! Stop daydreaming! Come on!" Sam called out to me.
I reluctantly followed her back into to the dark hallways. As I followed them I realised that it was starting to get colder. I turned slightly as a pair of icy claws swung past my head. ( That damned bird! I swung my head around and caught it by the leg and flinched it back. the bird was thrown a descent distance leaving a little frost on my maw which quickly melted. The bird was laying there stunned by what I'd just done. I walked over and put a clawed foot on its chest and hissed right in front of its face to let it know I was higher on the food chain. Then I let it go. I continued walking only to find the stunned looks of Sam and her Father who had been watching the whole time.
"That lizard is not as simple as it seems. Most beasts wouldn't dare go close to my eagle, let alone fight it. Speaking of which" He turned his head. " Malphus! How long are you planning on Laying there!?" he called. The bird did an awkward roll and stood. It shook itself then flew the rest of the way down the hall to land on Sam's shoulder. I hissed at it and it hid behind her head on the other shoulder. Sam laughed at it. " You got scolded by a little lizard and come to me to mope. You are definitely my father's bird! Hahaha!" I huffed ( little lizard my ass. I should've eaten the dumb bird.) I thought as I walked past her and into the room they were in front of.

As I walked in I noticed massive book shelves lined the walls. They filled the walls from floor to ceiling and were full of books. The room must have been 15 feet tall by 40 feet wide, and at least 60 feet long. it was filled with the smell of ink and paper. The smell I loved when I was human. I can't describe the nostalgia I felt. It almost brought a tear to my eye to see so many books. (Shame I probably can't read them.) I thought sadly. I felt a small breeza pass me as Lord Carnac passed me to get to his desk. " You're probably wondering why I wanted to talk to you right after the events we just suffered... Am I right daughter?" He sat down and knit his fingers together looking very intently at us both.
" Yes I very much do. Who would want to take my life?" she paused. " It wasn't just an attack on you. It was an attack on Ignis and myself" this was prepared specifically so We would die from this. Who would profit from this?!" her voice got slightly louder closer to the end as she spoke. She sounded frustrated and alarmed. And even more so.... scared.
" My daughter. There's not much I can tell you. But what I can tell you is that this herb is not cheap. In the history of its use only nobles have ever had possession of it. And even fewer among nobles who can get there hands on it. I know that being a barons daughter has not been easy. But is there anyone who could possibly be targeting you?"
" I don't know." She said
"It could be anyone then. Until we know who this person is we will have to keep a close eye on you both to keep you safe. I know any damage you get is transferred to him. But if he sustains enough a little bit hits you too. I just want you to be safe and sound. And I hope the day comes when we find the traitorous fool who dared try this stunt." He calmly put his hands down and grabbed a paper from a massive stack next to him. " Until then I still have my people to look after. I'm sorry. I'll have the head chef make you something since Neither of you were able to eat the poisoned food." He rung a bell. An elderly butler came in and he handed him a note and said something quickly. The butler nodded and hurried off. " Now. I love you. But I have work. Best go fill your stomaches. Go. Shoo." He waved in a funny fashion.
