Samsul was a little surprised to see that Gerald was planning on talking to her personally without Anastasia being there, but nonetheless, he followed the older man out into the hall and looked at him. Samsul closed the door behind him and sighed lightly at the question. "She's doing surprisingly well. She wished to do to the dining hall as well as receive lessons from you without any suggestions from myself. She did want to go into town as well, but after hearing that she couldn't speak about her mother to the public, she decided not to. She is trying to stay strong, and it's a wonder that she is considering that every one of these halls are filled with memories of queen Elana."
