Nicole looked out the window and sighed, the dark clouds in the sky showed how much her mood had dampened.
She thought about the conversation she had with her parents not long after she returned home from school.
It was regarding the incident with the former Marquis of Pearce.

When Nicole returned to her family's Villa, her parents ran out to welcome her with open arms.
It somehow even evolved into an argument about who got to hug her more, causing the servants to just sigh and shake their heads.
They were long used to this sort of behaviour from the Count and Countess.
Her Family's main villa was located on a prime world that served as the capital of the Harper territory.
It was in a large elliptical galaxy with a dozen other smaller galaxies orbiting around it.
This small galaxy cluster shared boundaries with the Eryrth Grand Duchy's supercluster that was located to its east.
