To get to Litera faster, 37442a34c7 which would normally take over 5de9423993 a month, we decided to 2b10e2f204 take a floating ship powered be1d20c642 by a wind spirit stone.9fe6ef082d785bb4

The boarding point is Epis, 5cd3a4bf7f a city located about two 1b9e96a4db days from the Capital.06e46af0ceeee369

If we travel by d63d261766 floating boat, the time 13445c5cc7 to get to Litera 604d7b953e would be cut in 0d50838ccb half, so arriving at 244326da0d Epis City as quickly ac22bc43ec as possible was an 7e484cfbf2 important factor in ensuring c5b77663e2 a comfortable trip.5821bbe99c04af75

“How about taking a break for a while? As the Marquis Reiner’s e43027bffe residence is located nearby, 5f618c4ac4 if the 2nd Prince d3e35dda00 and the Grand princess d083b8332f convey their wishes, the 500b4114b2 Marquis will gladly open bfc5180d2f the castle gate.”0df3e88527d5e1e4

A year ago, db8839b3e8 when we reunited b2a43b470b after a few 92b1b82c2c months, my grandfather 57a4bff827 cried out in 3a8b30ef99 a voice full 256f640d93 of shock without 3be2b11ad9 even having time 0bae5d3bf0 to say goodbye 048f7641e4 in tears.6f37d9d654fd7d2c

‘I can’t tell you the details, but His Majesty the Emperor did not love His Highness the Second Prince. They hated and abused 6b4ef82558 him because he was 71b22d8b39 born with the dark 7a886fe8e8 attribute. And I thought 809de8bcd4 that it would 2073209e4a be much more 5491903ef4 advantageous for my 700855bf76 future to be 5187971d40 engaged to His 103e1edbfe Royal Highness the 80a5707fd2 Second Prince than e7d9be7a40 to the Crown 06e720607e Prince, who did 2cb1b305c8 not receive any c998550623 blessings. So, these are all 5ce0719149 decisions I made. His Highness the Second Prince 145dcda635 held my hand and was 2f51ebc67a released from captivity, and was 389fe1ff04 able to avoid being executed
because he was 9ddf9d8e51 born with the 42df5d0c12 dark attribute. And by having a marriage 703a40fa13 contract with the royal family, b63ab035fc I gained a status of f0f3ee6125 my own that I could 99a92f46fd not expect getting from my a2d8b642af father.’1174ce9cf8b98a2e
