Kel stared; it wasn’t often she was called either ‘pretty’ or ‘little’, although she had to admit that this…lady was quite a bit taller than her. It was even less often that she conversed with ghosts.
“I’m sorry if we disturbed you,” she told the figure nervously. “I’ll leave you in peace now.”
“Oh, I’m not from here.” She snorted. “I’m not royalty. Gods, I think I’d do myself in again if I’d been married to Roger.”
Kel’s eyes widened. “Roger? And again?”
“Oh, I didn’t do it myself the first time. Old age actually, it was really quite boring. Maybe I should’ve. And I didn’t mean your Roger, I meant King Roger. Although really, they’re both as bad as each other, trying to cause havoc in the Realms of the Dead and failing every time. They’re not called the Peaceful Realms for nothing, you know.”
Kel nodded. “That’s very interesting, but I’d best be going.”
The ghost sighed. “So you keep saying. Maybe I’ll just follow you from time to time, you seem very interesting. It’s nice to see a girl page; we weren’t very popular towards the end of my time.”
Kel’s eyes lit up. “You were another girl page?”
The ghost grinned. “Lady knight.”
