Who wanted to spy on him, and why did they send such a young person? Or maybe she was a vampire, or an avatar of the night. Was it even a girl? Who wanted him to die right now? Probably a lot of people, but who would actually send an assassin to him? Wait, maybe he was dreaming, maybe the witch had poisoned him, but that was years ago? Or was it a faked memory. He mumbled to himself. Surely the king of this realm didn't want him dead. No, he was probably just overthinking this. She was probably just a normal girl, going to parties and such. Besides, if she were an assassin she would surely hide it. Maybe the red thing was lipstick or something. Allan realized that he had zoned out, and the gumbo was starting to get cold. At least the hot chocolate was less hot.
