I slept well, despite my new surroundings and all of the confusion that washes over me every time I close my eyes. My body was just exhausted the night before, so when I lay down in my bed, after King Solan left, I immediately went to sleep, and now, as I open my eyes and blink a few times, I realize I've slept longer than usual. The clock says it's past 9:00 in the morning. I am usually up by 6:00.
Trying not to think about everything that happened the day before, I take a shower and get dressed. I decide to pin my hair up off my neck, which is probably not the wisest decision in a castle full of vampires, but it seems like a warm day outside for this part of the world, and the sun is actually shining. My understanding is that it is almost always cloudy here, as it was yesterday when I'd arrived. If there'd been any sun the day before, I hadn't noticed, though I had spent some time beneath the ground.
