155 Interrogation

Alvin kept a safe distance between himself and Alicia as he followed her. Thankfully, she didn't stray too far from her chamber. She stopped along the passageway and turned to him.

"You were with Harold early this morning, am I right?" Alicia asked, and Alvin, who had been trying to come up with all the possible questions she could ask him, almost blinked in surprise since he hadn't been expecting that particular question.

"Yes, my lady," he said with a bow.

"Around what time precisely?" She asked, and this time Alvin was relieved that Harold had told him what to say in case she asked him about it.

"Before dawn. We usually start the first rounds of our training before dawn," Alvin supplied, and Alicia nodded.
