The last day of summer vacation, Maxwell Palmer moved out of the Watson Family and settled into Ashby Villa with Eliza Morgan.
Maxwell Palmer became an idle wanderer, cooking, fishing, driving Eliza to and from places, and tossing coins into the Wishing Well every day, without any other activities.

Vandis was temporarily overseen by several senior directors, as Emily Watson couldn't manage the affairs due to her severe illness; insomnia, auditory hallucinations, and a general sense of malaise plagued her, and her psychologist suggested she communicate more with her family.
