“I’d like to go to the fields!”, Markus replied with a bright smile. He also didn’t want to be on any boats for quite a long time if he could. But fields, they sounded the best. He was afraid a forest would be too dimly lit for him, and mountains made him think of the border of his kingdom -surrounded by mountains. So fields sounded like a dream.
“I’ll feel like I’ve been everywhere at the very least!”, he replied with a bright smile and happy giggle. He knew he couldn’t go everywhere, but so many places he’s never been to!
He had been traveling with his brothers since he was a young child; he couldn’t remember anything clearly from before he had started. Oliver was glad that Markus seemed to like the idea of it. Traveling alone was one thing but he missed the company.
“…years. I think I was about six when we started moving from place to place.”
“Wow.”, Markus was a little amazed. How could someone be traveling for all their life? He couldn’t imagine how that must have been like, though he could somewhat understand that Oliver felt trapped if he stayed in one place for long. He wasn’t used to that.
“Do you think you’ll ever settle down somewhere?”, he asked then, curious. Maybe Oliver did think about such things! He was very curious.
