Castle

The city passed them very quickly, and they were in a very desolate area. Angela looked out the window and could see a huge wall approaching them.

"I didn't know that modern cities had city walls anymore.", she said.

"Oh, that? Look again. That isn't a city wall.", Lucas laughed.

Angela squinted her eyes and looked closely. Lucas was right. This wall seemed to be a little older than the city that they passed. It was as if it came from the medieval times. In front of the wall, there was a moat of sorts and a gate that was closed.

"Don't tell me. Someone made it modeled after a castle.", she exclaimed.

"Not someone. Me.", Lucas said.

"You have a castle!", Angela shrieked.

"What's so surprising? It would be surprising if I got myself the whole city. It is just a castle. Any of us can afford it.", Lucas shrugged.
