I so much love the suspense that comes with this particular story. At every point you read, you already want to read the next episode.
I'll say that so far bastard has been so lucky, I hope he remains lucky. He is known to be fearless and ready to do whatever he sets his mind to do. Hope his encounter in the abandoned castle will be good as well.

It's obvious that the bastard will become King one day. He has gotten alot of reassurance from the eagle, the dead priest and even the noble and his daughter.
There's a saying that heavens help those that help themselves, in that I must say bastard is not doing so well. He is always taking risk and embarking on adventures that endanger his Life. Although I understand that destiny must take it's course but I think he needs to be more careful. I'm optimistic that he will survive the night in the abandoned castle, though not without a fight, because he must fight his battle and win a hundred times.

Friendship is one aspect of life that many people neglect. It's good that Katy still communicates with her childhood friend. That's awesome.
Do have a wonderful day ahead Sir.
