The City That Never Slept
The night outside Leons residence was really calm like something was finally relaxing, but the world around Leon was not going to sleep. The city of Vel was always alive, in the dark. You could hear the guards moving around quietly the sound of cart wheels and the far away cry of a night hawk flying over the rooftops.
Leon was lying in his bed feeling the warmth, around him his chest going up and down as he breathed slowly. At the time something was happening in the capital. It was not making a lot of noise. It was not crazy or wild. The capital was just coming alive.
The royal residence was really close to this building but it was near the big walls inside the palace grounds. This building was totally different from all the buildings around it. The palace grounds had these walls and this building was right next, to them but it looked really out of place.
