Lady Of The Night (44)

(Northern Region- Outskirts Of New Atlantic City)

(Castle Eden)

Mary stood outside on a balcony and relaxed under the bright sunlight that streamed down on her body.

It was now some time in the afternoon, and the young woman was feeling in a good mood. 

She stepped a bit closer to the balcony's edge and looked down.

All she could see from one end of the horizon to the other was a vast sea of green. 

Tall, magnificent trees that had stood for hundreds of years and would stand for hundreds after. Untouched and barely changed by the passage of time.

Mary absentmindedly wondered if Camilla had seen these trees when they were just small saplings jutting out of the ground.

It was still hard for her to wrap her head around just how old her mistress truly was. Of course, it helped that she looked like an attractive woman in her early thirties but…

She was centuries old.
