I had been here for nearly a month. Grand Duchess always went out to meet her other friends. So I was always left alone. This was a popular retreat location for nobles. To be exact, this island was a popular retreat location for 'older' nobles. There were only two young female nobles that were close to my age on this island. They usually lived in the country or here, so I had never met them before.
We became acquaintances.
On some days, such as today, they invited me to their tiny tea gathering. On other days, I stayed in my own room and read to my heart's content.
"Liana, if you wish to send out letters, it's better to do it now," said Beatrice, one of the two ladies I met.
"Why?" I asked, curious.
"I knew it! You didn't know that!" Jane exclaimed.
"It's going to be the monsoon season soon, so there might be a chance we are not able to get in touch with the mainland."
