The girl frowns, looking back at the group of guards. They shake their heads, silent. "We arent sure." She says.

The guards bow, "Queen Lucia, we've been instructed to guard you until the king comes back. He will explain when he returns." A guard says.

She was quiet for a moment, watching him. " Don't worry, Cas. I can protect myself. "
