Princess of the Lim villa

Lina and Mei finally arrived at the Lim villa, their mouths agape at the incredible architecture. 

Lila strode in elegantly, with a feigned graciousness and humility at her privilege. But the way she held herself betrayed the arrogance of a princess who was used to having the world at her feet.

"Come with me, we're going to my private quarters" she ordered gently.

Lina and Mei followed Lila quietly. 

The halls of the vast villa were dotted with regal family portraits and artifacts that had been carefully chosen from differeny cultures.

The artwork and showpieces made the villa feel less like a home and more like museum.

Lina much preferred her own Moshi mansion. It was warm and welcoming, even though it was ornate. But this house seemed like is was a delicate display case and nobody had any business lodging there. 

As a maid welcomed Lila into her chambers, she ordered some freshly brewed tea.
