With the knowledge that there was at least one familiar soul still in her life, Yue was able to relax a slight amount. She still nurtured an innate worry for her husband, her people, and her station – but alone, she was not.
Perhaps alone was not such a bad thing to be, but for a woman who had an attendant by her side since birth, it was quite an unfamiliar and daunting perspective. Yue had no desire to be alone, and the mere thought of losing all she had loved was nightmarish indeed.
There were so many questions that swirled in her mind, and she didn’t know which took preeminence. There was also the possibility that Touying was just as oblivious as she – thought at first glance, he didn’t look it.
Yue kept the surprise deep within, though it leapt and tore at its confines to escape and be known. Her voice was held low and controlled.
She wished the affirmation of the Gods to come through the mouth of a manservant.

I… must have been sleep walking,she suggested, though the orchid had strong suspicions that this wasn’t true. With her very statement, she dared the Crystal Dragon to prove her wrong.

I woke up and I didn’t recognize where I was.More for him to deny, if he would just give her the pleasure of doing so.
Touying… Where are we?
