There were a lot of things Karla had wanted to do as soon as they entered the estate. Look around again and see how much had changed from her memories. Find old servants and friends and see if they were as glad to see her as she was them. Drag her friends by the hand and show off the home she'd grown up in.

Karla let none of her inner turmoil show as she looked down at her uncle's sneering face.

Look! She managed not to call him a pig! KARLA DESERVED A COOKIE.

"What I've done?" Hobart asked, unable to keep from grinning. "All I've tried to do was help Lady Ludmilla and Glacia to the very best of my abilities. Surely there's no law against that."

"Is that what this is all about?" Hobart asked, looking sympathetic. Or possibly dyspepsic. He didn't have a lot of experience with the whole sympathy thing. "Are you still blaming me for that horrible, tragic accident? Is that what this is all about? You've always looked for someone to blame for that, Karla.

You always were such a high-strung little girl.I wouldn't say unbalanced..."

But he would trail off there, so it was the last word the crowd heard.

Momoko twitched. Well, that wasn't fair, she didn't twitch so much as twitch harder. Her White Light was escaping her and she didn't care. Was it wrong she was hoping some fanatic would mistake it for a white jewel and attack her?

Too bad.
