Not at all. [She shakes her head, and laughs a little.]

Why, is that the kind of place you pictured me living?

You're probably right... maybe even more than my actual castle.

-- Oh, not that the castle in Zaphias isn't nice, though! The whole city's built on a hill with the castle in the center... I could see everything, all of the districts, looking out the windows. And the castle has an enormous sword-shaped spire... On a clear day, people can see it from halfway across the sea!

Yes. Even if it felt confining at times, it's still my home.

What about you, Claude? Did you grow up in a castle, too?

[She hesitates for a second, as if wondering if this is allowed, then remembers where they are, and follows.]

Really!? I wish I could see it...

Huh? But isn't it your palace?

[!?]

Why did you do that...?

[A very concerned look at that.] Yes... I know.

I'm sorry... that must have been hard.

Huh? [An uncertain smile.] I don't know how not to...

[A warmer smile.] Good. Because I'd keep caring about you whether you minded or not.
