"Are flowers that special?" Dawson asked as he didn't see why many go crazy about them.

"Of course they are. Maybe it is because you haven't seen the gardens in the palace. They are well taken care of so they are the best in the kingdom. I haven't travelled to see many gardens but I have a feeling that nothing compares," Alana replied. 

"You must be mindful of what I told you about couples in the garden. The darkness provides an opportunity for them to enjoy each other," Dawson said, resisting the urge to laugh at the horrors Alana was thinking of.
