Okay… a few more weeks left.
…
Exactly two weeks have passed, and I've been invited to the Great House of Bonebloom, just a few days before the Meeting of Roses.
Apparently, the dude from that family, who I recently learned is called Orme… a weird name, wants to talk to me about something.
Upon arriving at the massive mansion, I was greeted by a few servants who asked for my name and the secret password he texted me.
They immediately confirmed my identity with some type of scanning device before letting me through the large outer gate, connected to a widespread fence that surrounded the entire mansion.
But, even when I arrived inside the large mansion, I wasn't allowed to leave the main room, which was so big tall that you could barely even see chandeliers hanging from the top.
"So this is the boy?" A deep booming voice said, and as it echoed through the room, I swiveled my head behind me.
