<div style="text-align: justify;">The servant nodded when Lorna said she would like to hear any news coming from her sister's place of residence. That was perfectly normal, and something she could do without being blamed for anything improper. It was only natural that one wanted to know of their sibling's health and safety, right? "I shall bring you any news from those lands that come to me, madam", Mary promised kindly. <br/><br/>The request about being informed of visitors to the castle made wheels start turning inside Mary's head. What exactly was she interested in? Was there someone specific she wanted to know about? Or someone's visitors, specifically? It was something she needed to know, but it would be something to be asked at another time, once Lorna trusted her more. "Naturally, madam. As long as I know who the person is, I will be sure to let you know". The servant smiled kindly one more time. "I believe that would not disturb your penance, after all".<br/><br/>When Lorna took her seat, Mary walked next to the woman and started serving her. "Is this satisfactory?", she asked, indicating the meal. "It seems quite plain for a lady used to the finer things in life". Just like Lorna, Mary was also testing her boundaries. Or more properly, her mistresses's boundaries. She wanted to know if she was satisfied or upset, if something bothered her, and how she actually felt about the penance. Any shred of information helped, after all.</div>
