"This place is so beautiful," Rosalind remarked, her eyes filled with wonder as she gazed at the vibrant garden before her. The flowers seemed to possess an ethereal quality, unlike any she had ever seen. She turned to Lucas, who stood beside her, his expression as stoic as ever. "Where exactly are we?" she inquired, her curiosity piqued. After 'eating' in the study, Lucas took her to tour the Mansion. Then they ended up here.
Lucas paused for a moment, choosing his words carefully. "We are currently at the barrier," he replied. "The Rothley Family has been entrusted with its protection for generations."
Rosalind furrowed her brow, confusion evident on her face. "The barrier?" she repeated, struggling to comprehend the significance of his words. "Are we back at the island?"
Lucas shook his head. "No, this is a different place. A hidden sanctuary guarded by the Rothley Family. No one else, aside from its members, can enter this space."
