- Scheherezade-Sam also felt the connection. Like a part of her was home. It was strange because she wasn't a very sentimental person. Losing both her parents did that...knocked all the sentimentality out of her. But there was something about this man that felt familiar."No," Scheherezade said of him offering to talk to Jaimie. "Thank you buy no. I order for this to work, Jaimie and I will have to come to find common ground on our own. That will take us talking this through. After our walk, I will go look for him and he and I will work this out. But thank you for offering," she said with a smile. And with a nodded, Sam took his arm. "I am excited. There is so much of the grounds I can see from my window. I wish to know about everything. Oh, and do you think we can add the turret to our tour?"?

Callum hesitated when Scheherezade expressed an interest in the turret.? There was little doubt in his mind as to which one she meant.? "Ah don't think you would like it much," he said after a moment, glancing back to where the tower in question loomed over the rest of the castle.? "No one does, really. It's an ill-favored place, and those rare souls who venture there feel it.? Ah would'na recommend it. Truly, ah wouldn't." ?
"Ah know a place you might like better," he said, cocking his head towards a spot further out on the castle grounds.? "Tis a quiet and lovely spot, where a lively streams runs.? There are some ruins there, now.? Ruins of a mill.? It fell into disrepair some generations back.? Ah often thought of having it rebuilt, but it would hardly have been worth the effort.? The days when it was needed to mill grain are long past.? And truth be told, it makes for quite a picturesque ruin.? There was a time when young couples liked to visit it on the sly, it being conveniently close to the castle to reach by walking but far enough away to allow privacy."
Callum looked to Scheherezade with an expression of polite inquiry.? "Would you care to see it?"
