As Kyle plodded off, Nestor gave out his customary call of "Behave!", before heading back upstairs to his war room, in order to give his soldiers his morning briefing.
Kyle spent the next quarter of an hour wandering up and down the labyrinthine corridors of the ducal palace. It was clear that he had ventured off the beaten track, because these parts of the castle were completely deserted: the only other people present were a few guards dotted around in strategic places. Even the decorations were looking torn, and some of the paintings had been knocked out of their frames: evidently, Nestor had had a clumsy accident with them, and nobody had bothered to repair them.
Eventually, though, Kyle heard a quiet, downcast voice in the distance.
"Don't worry, Meriandra... you don't need to take on this responsibility alone... I can learn with you, and we can both replace Anastasia. It's my fault she's retiring anyway ..."
