The Sound Of Tree Branches

William returned Irene to her room. In front of the door, he then stopped frantically. He did not realize that he had pulled the princess's head. William immediately let go of his hand and touched Irene's shoulder.

"Princess, Arielle… is not in pain. Maybe…" 

Shit! William had a hard time making up a story he could give to a small child. Perhaps if it was Lazarus or Kael, both of them would immediately understand what was going on in the room, but Irene… William closed his eyes in deep thought.

"Ah! Princess Arielle is probably very busy taking care of the dragon eggs that she brought with her," he said quickly.

Irene thought for a moment then nodded in understanding. Yes, she knew Arielle's task was quite difficult and maybe that was also what made the princess sick. Irene immediately lowered her head, feeling confused because she was also afraid to go into her own room right now. She was afraid of the strange sound on the window in her room.
