Gaum's carriage arrived in front of Grand Duchy Stormhill's mansion. This mansion was quite far from his current residence in the city of Dionde. The real office of Grand Duchy Stormhill was in that city, but it seemed that Grand Duke and Duchess already stayed in this white palace on top of a cold hill for almost ten years already.
The reason? It was because their only son, Aster di Arlingdon had a skin condition, which he would get severe rash and burns whenever he got exposed with sunray or caught in extreme heat.
Gaum had prepared a gift for this high and mighty Young Lord of Grand Duchy Stormhill. However, he still had to meet Grand Duke for their business in Kingdom Rhea.
"This way, sir," a butler escorted him to Grand Duke's office. Gaum's lips perked up when he face this middle aged man, whose body still looked youthful and strong even though he was around early forties.
