Chapter 69: Change (2)

Tyrion followed his father to a room where they could speak in private.

It was silent at first as Tobias was still lingering on the fact that Edgar had prepared a home for his son. 

"He prepared a home for you-"

"He prepared a home for his daughter," Tyrion spoke over his father. "Penelope remains his daughter."

"There are homes under the palace. Homes taken back from nobles who lost their right to have them. I could have found you a fitting home, yet you did not come to me. Just as you did not come to me regarding leaving with Penelope," Tobias said, frustrated.

Why was he always the last to know?

"I took Penelope home to her family this morning, and it was there that the duke mentioned he was having a home prepared for us. The duke and duchess are preparing all that we need. Servants as well," Tyrion shared.
