Arielle did not have many good memories of her family in the South. Her siblings made her life in Nieverdell a living hell. Only because of Olin and the other maids, Arielle was able to survive this far.
Arielle's heart had indeed left the South and chosen Northerndell to be her new home. However, that didn't mean, Arielle would leave her friends too. She didn't know what made Olin think like that.
Arielle wiped her tears and smiled crookedly. There was silence in the backyard. Only the creaking sound of wood and leaves made the tension even more uncomfortable.
"Was it true, Princess? Have you really chosen the North as your new home?" asked Olin with a bit of urgency.
Arielle nodded. "Sorry, I did choose Northendell as my new home."
