Strange Energy 1

"So you snuck aboard?" I asked, feeling amazed by Grace's ability to just pop up out of nowhere. Now that I think about it, I did not see her when I set off.

"Master, the word snuck on is a bit demeaning. I walked right on without issue. I even sat near the rear of the airship out of sight while it took off and waited for this moment to appear." Grace proudly replied. 

At this, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. "So, in other words, you snuck on." I shook my head and slouched down in my chair. "Not that it matters what is done is done. Did you at least tell someone else, or should I notify the house?"

"I left a note for Annie stating that I would be away for some time in order to serve Master properly," Grace answered with a firm nod. 

Thurul was at the side, chuckling while I held my head. "Now that you are here, take one of the rooms. We are in for a long trip, after all."
