Hugo, Amicia and Melie tracked down Lucas, threw the Inquisition off their trail and reached Chateau d'Ombrage, an isolated ancestral fortress, overrun with rats. After a tough battle to eliminate the swarm, the orphans got their first night of peaceful rest.

There came sunlight after a long night and the fortress looks beautiful in daylight. I just hoped the orphans and the friends didn't face any trouble later when I was not there to save them.

Amicia was still asleep and the kid brother awake her up after understanding that his sister was having a bad dream. The kid was so happy reaching this place and said he's found a lots and lots and lots of things.

I started following Hugo when the kid kept running with his little legs and he took me to Lucas who was working on some alchemist thingy. When Hugo runs fast, he looks too cute.

I was looking at the place and it looked like a good laboratory though Lucas was saying it's in a bad shape but it inspired him and he was on the brink of completing a good work. Lucas asked both Amicia and Hugo to help him grabbing something over to him.

I had to hand him a phial from the left-hand table, Hugo was asked to get a candle as Lucas would need fire at the last step and at last, Lucas asked me to hand him the concentrated laurel sap that was just behind him.

After getting everything, Lucas tried his work and we noticed that glow but Lucas said it didn't work though Hugo was so happy seeing the glowing thing and was addressing Lucas a sorcerer saying it was great work.

Now letting Lucas to get some rest as he didn't slip a bit last night, I started following Hugo to another part of the fortress and it looks like he was taking me upstairs now.

But I made him wait noticing the workbench there and I used it to upgrade the pocket of Amicia so she can hold more materials of each type. There were some resources around as well that I grabbed on my way.

This is the place where all of them slept/took rest last night. We found all three of them but Melie was missing so Amicia was thinking that maybe Melie left them in the early morning.

When Hugo was waiting for me at the door that goes above, I went to this place and found the beautiful view of part of the fortress from there and there's a big tree and some butterflies as well.

Then I decided to follow Hugo as the kid was waiting to show me what else he's found. He took me to this open space and showed me show beautiful the chateau looks at daylight. The kid tried shouting there and asked Amicia to do it together and the sister joined the brother with great pleasure.

To know what happens next, you need to keep following me so you don't miss my next post.

That's all for now. I'll write about more of this story again soon. Be safe till we meet again.
Au revoir/Goodbye.
