The place is arguably the must important and guarded place in the whole kingdom and the workers here respect the king but don't answer to him.

They sighed "I really thought that yesterday, he was here for us, but it's a good thing he wasn't, or I might have end of changing my mind" black mamba says.

Amanda looked at him, shake her head as if to say something but didn't.

Garza one of their brother say" yesterday we are a little paranoid and forget where we are that why we thought he came for us"

There was an understanding look on Black mamba's face, and he remembers a fact. This entire place stand equal or above the king himself, so no one can do what they want here.

By the time the children were brought here, they are not allowed to meet their guardians.

Even with their high status they are currently walking side by side with daughters and sons of slaves.

The giant hallway is 50 meters between left to right, but they are yet to see it end, they have been walking for 3 hours.

Most of them are in discussion while the other are examining the ground where they step. Some examine the sidewalls as if comprehending something.

Amanda thought and call to everyone "I am going to ask questions, anyone that answer perfectly, I will invite him or her to my mothers garden for a full day relaxation".

No one stop walking but they all listen. After she saw the attention she added I do not want to cause difference, but I will have to ask those with noble status to move a bit forward to the left, while the rest to the right".

"Good, thank you if you do not wish to participate, please can you step away from everyone ".

"I will help you manage Shabbar stand by her side looking at everyone in the eye with his arrogant look.

She says thank you and ask the first question "How long have we been walking"

The boy says "We have been walking for almost twelve and a half hours".

Most of the crowd to mock him and some began to shout "It's less than that".

But Amanda remain Stoic and ask the second question "How far is the height of the side walls".

Every one remain quiet and start measuring the walls with eyes, but no one give the answer.

She asks the Next question "This will be the finale question but think clearly. Are we moving horizontally or vertically? "

This question stuns many people including the nobles not because its absurd or stupid, but it brings them back to the reality of what was this place. They might have been moving for years without realizing, it let alone moving underground vertically without any sense of dizziness.

That wasn't the only case. As they kept forgetting why are they here, which stop them from pondering similar questions. At least they might comprehend something now.
