"Hold on, you're what?" Amélia asked in shock,

Before Red could respond, Trivia stepped in and grabbed Red's hand,

"I think best we settle down before explaining anything" Trivia said looking into his eyes,

"Okay" Red replied,

Both Red and Trivia walked inside while the group followed them in. They came upon two huge golden doors which opened thanks to two servents. As they peered inside, a huge hall laid in front. An array of chandeliers hang from the marvelously carved ceiling, holding about 20 candles each. A red carpet span for about 30 meters straight leading to a gigantic throne. The throne was made from golden skulls and feathers. As a center piece, at the top of the throne, was a giant snake's head with two jewls for eyes, one black which seemed to absorb all light, while the other was a pure white and seemed to emit light. To the left and right was a number of doors in which servants kept walking in and out of. As they walked in, 5 maids in beautifully made clothes bowed before welcoming Red and Trivia,

"Ladies, take Red for a bath. And show the others to some rooms" Trivia ordered them,

"Yes, Your Highness" they responded before 4 of them led the group through a door to the right, the other one was waiting for Red to accompany her,

Red let out a sigh before following the maid. Trivia stood in place looking at his back with a saddened look. A servant suddenly approached her and knelt, making Trivia quickly disperse her sad face,

"Your Highness, I have news as to the subject you asked of me to investigate",

"That can wait until The King has arranged himself. Bring all information and documents to our room" she said with a stern tone,

"Yes" he replied before quickly disappearing,

Red followed the maid to a wooden door with a golden doorknob. The feeling of boiling water hit him emerging from inside. The maid opened the door before stepping back, bowing, and pointing inside for Red to go in,

"Thank you Jaela" he said to her,

The maid simply smiled,

The group that followed the 4 other maids were amazed at the indoors. They were on the second floor, surrounded by statues of creatures never seen before to Amélia. Karla and Maria were running from side to side with a gleam in their eyes, taking everything in,

"I'm sorry but can I ask a question?" Amélia asked with confusion in her voice,

"Apart from the one you just asked?" the tallest maid replied with a smile,

"Umm, yes",

"Please, be at ease. No need to be so stiff. You are in the house of King Red. As his guests, you will be welcomed and be made at home as if you were The King himself",

Amélia relaxed a bit "Thank you, sorry but I just can't believe it. Red? King?",

The maid gave a small chuckle before answering "I'm guessing you met Our Lord at a time where he may not have given the image of a king? ",

"Well... Yeah",

"Don't worry, he doesn't mean any disrespect to himself or others. His Highness simply prefers to live a comfortable life, wanting as many people as possible to be unaware of his status",

"Why?" Amélia asked with a wide look in her eyes,

"Because he wishes it" the maid replied with a smile,

After a while of walking, they came upon a small hall splitting three ways. Each end was a door leading into a room. The maids stopped in place and the group followed suit,

"The lady may stay in the room to the left while the girls can take the middle. Each room has a deluxe bed made with feathers from a Lioass and sheets of the best cotton the world has to offer. Each also contain a bathroom, with a bath I think you will all enjoy. Along with that, if any of you wish to see the vistas, there is a veranda in each room as well overlooking the Queen's Garden. If any of you has any enquiries there is a Speaking Stone by the beds which can call myself or any of my sisters, and we will help in any way possible. As the Main Maids of the castle, we humbly welcome you to Savanna" the maid said before all of them bowed,
