Liora nodded, trying to maintain her composure, but her grandmother's laughter was contagious.
"And seriously..." Selphira continued between laughs, bringing a hand to her chest as if she needed to contain herself, "little Luna jumped from the shadows trying to stop an imaginary immoral act? Oh, by all the dragons, I would give half my fortune to have seen everyone's faces... even those of the castle guards when they saw you both appear in front of them and next to the poor boy, Taro you said his name was?"
"It was quite dramatic," Liora admitted, allowing herself a smile. "Especially because Larissa convinced them that everything was part of an elaborate prank."
