Mila sat on the window sill throughout the long night, feeling the cool breeze caress her face and listening to the far off sounds of wild dogs howling in the night. Her thoughts were blank for once, no imagining of the shoreline or how beautiful everything must be that she would never see. Casey and Lily were constantly teasing her for her descriptions of the world around them. Tearing down her built up imagination of their village, which made it seem like they lived like royalty. As the night passed, Mila stayed on the window sill, listening to the silence of the household.<br/><br/>As the sun crept above the trees, Mila bathed in the sunlight for a few minutes before retreating back into her room. Crossing carefully and silently over to the door, she pulled open her door and winced as it gave a creak. Listening intently for any sounds of movement, she slowly relaxed and stepped out when no movement could be heard. Making her way slowly down the hall, Mila felt the air suddenly still in front of her, an imposing force keeping it from moving freely forward.<br/><br/>Placing her small hand out in front of her, Mila felt the cold, wooden surface of a large door. Sliding her hand down, she felt the cold sting of the iron handle and proceeded to push it open. The sound of early morning birds greeted her ears and she stepped out of the lord's home cautiously. The feel of cool dirt met the bottoms of her feet and the warm early morning sun kissed her fair skin, encouraging her to venture further out of the safety of the home. Walking out further and further, she soon felt the sun disappear from her skin, signaling to her she had reached a wooded area and that it was time for her to head back. The distant rumble of thunder caught her attention as she began to try and find the way back. A single rain drop fell onto her cheek, making Mila flinch as the cold stung her warm cheek.<br/><br/>The servant wouldn't find Mila in her room, for she had left far earlier than anyone had been awake. It was pouring down raining by time the servant reached the room and fear turned his blood cold as he realized that the blind village girl could possibly be lost somewhere in the large home. Running back to the study, he had to tell Don before something serious happened.
