662. Beyond The Beauty

Sylvester and Xylena arrived atop one of the high towers of Ashstone Castle and talked privately. With chairs present and the smooth, warm breeze of the south surrounding them, this was the only likely place where none would be able to spy on them. 

"Look there, Father!" Xylena excitedly pointed at the distance in the city. "We're building your statue there. It will be massive, and it'll have a working halo behind the head, which will use light crystals. It'll illuminate the city at night… it will look so pretty!" 

Sylvester watched her excitedly jump around and talk. It was truly heartwarming to see he was able to give her a good life despite having lost everything. After spending years of her childhood running around for her life, working small jobs to survive, Xylena had her home back.
