Arrived to the west after 12 days of journey. "Welcome for your arrival, sir Eric, master Alice."
Manor of Duchess Nuri is used for nobles from all places from The Kingdom of Leynan to issuing business regarding the west.
Duchess Nuri is a not so friendly person. She is one of the people who thinks woman shouldn't get involved in country matters, especially if she came from peasants family. She looks at Alice just like she's inspecting her.
"Well, sir Eric. Have you think about my proposal between you and my daughter?" She smiles when it comes to talk about her daughter's marriage.
"As our arrival is based for the immigrants matter, I think we will be very busy" Eric refuses to answer Duchess Nuri.
The head of the butler, Mr. Win, "This way to your room gentleman and lady. Please head towards the 2nd floor, the right door is sir Eric's room and the left one is master Alice's room. Dinner will be ready in 30 minutes"
Eric walks to the staircase and goes straight to his room while Alice follows him from behind. She jumps to the bed, "I will sleep for 10 minutes only 10 min... u...." she falls asleep.
"Alice? Alice..?" Harry knocks on her door.

Eric knocks on Alice's room and once he opened the door he said to Harry, "Send a maid to help her change the clothes. She passed awa.. I mean passed out for the long journey."
Harry hastes to call for a maid.
"Huh.. ? who changed my clothes and washed my face? Anyway thank you it feels goo... d." Alice continues snores in her sleep.
"Good morning master Alice, we are assigned to assist you to get ready for today's meeting."
One of the maids wakes Alice up.
"Ye.. yeah okay do so.." her eyes still dimmed.
During the meeting with Duchess Nuri and the minister of Finance, Duke Oliver.
"How about the plan that I have discussed with you, Duke. Regarding to provide foods and supply to the immigrants?" Duchess Nuri asks.
"Well, first. I think it is not make sense to just provide them with food and supply. If that's the case, more immigrants will come to the West and it will be insufficient of food and supplies. The recycle will remain to happen until there are too many immigrants in here." Duke Oliver explains.
"Master, Alice, as a representative do you think it is possible for us to provide them with food and supplies?"
"In my opinion..."
