”If you were told to go eastwards, you can’t just ignore me and go in the opposite way,” the king added on.

”Yes,” she said while nodding. If she can’t go in the opposite way, North and south work fine too.

”Sure”. She replied. She never has to be the one having affair with the others. Others have it with her.
