^^; Sorry it took so long to submit.

Spade wondered aimlessly through the corridors of his grandmothers home. He wasn’t pleased that he’d have to stay there all summer. The home was a drafty old castle that had been in his family for over ten generations, and was about to be his new home. He wasn’t sure he’d like it here, in this foreign land. He didn’t know anyone, and tended to be quite and shy. He preferred his home in the States. It was a small quaint little place with electricity.
He thought to himself that as soon as his grandmother died, he’d put in a phone line, light sockets and outlets. He loved to be on his computer, but without the electricity to power it, he was stuck with his 4 year old laptop and a slowly waning battery. At least he could talk to his friends back home for a while.
He sighed as he started up the cold stone stairway that led to his room, at the top of the castle, like a gilded cage. It was a spectacular room, with wall hangings depicting his ancestors on merry occasions, like weddings. Some where hunting parties, but they were all brightly coloured. His bed, which was cover in silk-lined furs, took up most of the bed chambers. But he still didn’t like the cold stone floor. It made the room, and the house feel like a prison.
He left his room, again, but this time he had a purpose. He'd spotted a huge garden on the right side of the castle that he'd not seen earlier.

And this is where he meets Corneilus? Maybe?
