"We need to turn here before heading downstairs." Julian said, nodding to the right turn in the hallway they were approaching. "The cafeteria is in the next wing over."
"Daddy took me to a Naga game when I was little. I barely remember it." Brella said.

"Why is the cafeteria so far from the rooms? Marendy asked.

"It's actually as close as it can get without being too far from the rooms in the other wings." Julian explained. There are rooms on the other side of it too, as well as underneath it."
"Isn't it in the basement already?" Brella asked. "This is the ground floor..."
"Counting secret tunnels and the royal war bunker, there are twelve floors underground." Julian explained.

"It must be like a maze down there," Marendy replied.

"The whole castle is like a maze." Julian explained as the group turned the corner. "The outer wall was measured at around four square kilometers."

"That's huge," Marendy replied. "I guess it makes sense though, it's where the king lives. Oh, speaking of which, what's he like anyway?"

Brella pointed to the staircase going downward in the middle of the hallway. "Oh! Does that one go all the way down?" she asked rhetorically before darting off to go check for herself.
"There's a new king." Julian stated. "King Derio Nerg died recently. He and the queen apparently committed suicide, and their only son took over."

"Suicide?!" Marendy asked with a shocked tone. "Why?!"

"No one knows." Julian continued as they got to the staircase.
Brella peeked over the railing. "Awww, it only goes down one floor?!? Where's the rest?"
"No warning signs and no suicide notes were found." Julian said. "Though some think one of them murdered the other one, but was caught in the explosion."
"...explosion?" Brella asked as her curiosity was immediately drawn away from the staircase.
Julian looked down at Brella. "Yeah. When nobles and other demigods die, their bodies produce a powerful explosion which most people would in turn die from if they're too close to."

"Couldn't it have been an accident then?" Marendy asked.
