" I didn't, I wasn't the first inhabitant of this castle....."

ashleigh replied simply, walking on in the darkness, lighting the torch she finally came upon ten minutes later.

Darryn didn't say anything to that one. Oh, a castle. Whodathunkit? The man looked around as the light flickered on.

"So... you live in a castle. By yourself. In the middle of nowhere." He exhaled thoughtfully.

"Shunned or shunning? Or are you just some morbid crazy chick?"

" escaping."

Ashleigh replied simply in the dreary dim light of the fire, walking on letting his hand fall now that he could see slightly, wondering on to light more torches and lanterns.

Darryn began to pick up almost everything he could carry, lighting it all.

"Oh, I know how that goes. Fun fun fun." He lit the lantern which he perched precariously atop all of the others, a few torches gripped somehow or another. Talk about a walking fire hazard.

Darryn didn't even hesitate as he set one lantern down.

"Trail of bread crumbs. I would hate to get lost in your castle. Then I would have to jump out the window. And that's throwing me to the wolves." Pun intended, of course.

" Stay close, and you won't be lost. I know it as if it were a part of me."

ashleigh replied simply, still giving him odd looks for all the things he was carrying.

Darryn did follow, though he was still placing little things down along the way, a torch here and a lantern there. At least he did until he was holding only an oil lamp.

"So... How high does the snow get?" That's really all there was to say.

" It's covered the entire castle before.... Considering that the entire castle is carved from one of the mountain sides, and blends in... It typically is covered in the deepest parts of winter....."

what she neglected to mention at this point, were the ways out.

Darryn sighed.

"Brings a whole new meaning to 'little hole in the ground' sort of place." Darryn suddenly had a thought.

"Wait. You told me to explore before. Were you trying to kill me?"

" No, you can't get to the dangerous parts of the house without knowing how."

She replied simply, not pointing out she'd opened three or four secret pannels.

Darryn scrunched his nose up.

"That makes even less sense. Why would the main part of the house that people could get into be completely safe and the parts that only you can get to be dangerous? That's like sleeping on spikes."

" the main part of the house isn't what I typically inhibit, nor any other previous owner... Keep where I live safe, who cares about the main house... and the main house has traps, simply have to turn them on."

"How comforting." Darryn looked up at a massive painting as they walked by.

"So... where do you come from?" Random questions for the win.

" A convent, you?"

Ashleigh answered vaguely, not a fan of her history, smiling as she soon came upon her chambers, wondering inside to light the two torches on each side of her four post canopy bed.
