Oscar:  The gardens that streamed between the buildings sloped upward so gradually that the incline was almost unnoticeable. Oscar came to the base of a spire that adjoined the tall building, and he gazed up at the white stone walls. "All right, let’s go."

Mila:  "Where are you headed?" Mila inquired, her voice sounding amused from overhead.

Oscar:  Oscar looked up to see a red-haired girl floating down, hugging her knees. It was Mila, one of the spirits who served Tinasha. "I need to talk to her. Are the regent’s chambers just above here?"

Mila:  "Yes, but you’ll see her later in the great hall if you just wait."

Oscar:  "That’ll be too late, and I don’t want anyone else to overhear us. Can you stop her?" In all likelihood, Mila had appeared to protect her master. Conscious of Akashia, Oscar met Mila’s gaze and waited to see if she would chase him away.

Mila:  The redhead grinned. "You can do what you want, but I’m not going to help you."

Oscar:  "That’s fine, provided that you don’t obstruct me, either." Oscar answered, placing a hand on the wall.

Mila:  Mila’s eyes grew wide. "You’re going to climb?"

Oscar:  "The guards will stop me if I go inside."

Mila:  "Seriously? Do you have a death wish? Look, I’ll do you a favor and put an illusion on you, so the snipers don’t shoot you and send you plummeting to your demise."

Oscar:  "That would actually help a ton, thanks."

Mila:  Mila shook her head and sighed in disbelief. She disappeared with a snap of her fingers, and Oscar placed his hand on the wall once more. He began to climb up, his eyes on a tiny transom window. He wouldn’t think about how he wished Tinasha had only told him she planned to be queen for just a year. He knew it was a matter of national politics. She couldn’t reveal her plan to someone from another country. If their positions were reversed, he wouldn’t consider telling her, either. So it wasn’t too late. Now was the soonest he could do this. Oscar came out onto a small corridor and grabbed hold of the wall of another adjoining building. He passed several magical barriers on his climb to the highest floor, but Akashia nullified all of them. The window of her room was not locked and was protected only by a barrier. Oscar took out the royal sword and looked around the dark room that was occupied by only a few pieces of furniture
