Once Anne had prepared everything, Mia got right to writing. The letter was addressed to none other than the daughter of Marquess Schubert, Letizia—Sapphias’s fiancé.

Chapter 27: Keithwood Reaps the Seeds He Sowed

While Mia was having fun in the capital, Sion and Keithwood spent their summer peacefully and quietly...in Rudolvon Outlound County. They were there to visit Echard, who was diligently studying at Saint Mia Academy, as well as to pay their regards to the Greenmoons who looked after him. A quick trip to Perujin Agricultural County also seemed like a good idea; Sion wanted to see the organization Mia was building for himself. In any case, Sion had all sorts of reasons.

I’m quite certain his main one, though, is to visit Lady Tiona. Keithwood couldn’t help his glee. Sion’s deepening relationship with Tiona had lifted some weight off the prince’s shoulders. As a prince of Sunkland, I do understand the need to be prudent with those in his company, but His Highness really does take it too seriously.

Keithwood always wanted Sion to feel that he could act a bit more childishly, and while it was hard to consider it truly “childish,” he warmly watched over Sion’s awkward young love like an older brother. “Though I doubt he himself views this as love.” Seeing the shrewd Sion act so incompetently when faced with his own budding feelings left Keithwood so amused he couldn’t help but snicker.

“But truly, how peaceful...” whispered Keithwood as he watched the flowers wave with the wind in the courtyard of the Rudolvons’ residence. He had been so busy as of late that he had no time to appreciate the blossoms, and thus, his gentle stroll spent gazing upon the flower boxes left him with a mysterious feeling. “Perhaps you could say I’ve not been busy enough...”

Of course, after a muttering like that, the god of fate couldn’t just leave him alone.

“Oh, so this is where you were, Keithwood.”

Keithwood turned toward the voice’s source. It was one of the knights that had accompanied them from Sunkland to act as a guard. “Did something happen?”

“Yes. I have a message for you, Sir Keithwood.”

“For me? Is it from Sunkland?” asked Keithwood with a scowl.

The knight shook his head. “No, it’s from Sapphias, son of Duke Bluemoon.”

“Ah, from Lord Sapphias.” Under some of the oddest of circumstances, Keithwood and Sapphias Etoile Bluemoon had forged a pact of friendship. Keithwood recalled the young man’s face with warm nostalgia. Before the summer, Keithwood had informed him that he would be visiting Tearmoon via letter. “I did wish to meet him should I get the chance... I wonder if he has made time for me.”

The Four Dukes held the highest noble rank in Tearmoon. If Sapphias had rearranged his undoubtably busy schedule to accommodate Keithwood, he thought there was a need to apologize. But when Keithwood opened the letter Sapphias had sent, he froze. Its contents were simple: “It appears that Her Highness has invited Letizia to a cooking party.”

“Hwah?” Keithwood had let down his guard.
