Maid: young master your father demands your presence in his study immediately
Father i wonder what he wants now probably another lecture about how much of a disappointment I am to his family
Xyrous : thank you I’ll be there right away
Maid: (bows and leave)
I get up put on some clothes and make my way to his study while waking I hear the same whispers of the servants I’ve gotten use to ,the same ridicule and conversation about how much of a disgrace I am to the great pyre family
Servant 1: *whispers* look it’s that broken thing
Servant 2: *whispers* yeah such a disappointment unlike his two older siblings hes just a waste of space
It’s the same thing everyday even though they are whispering I can clearly hear them I’ve had extremely good hearing for as long as I can remember KNOCK KNOCK!
