Moving the Contract back to Friday night cause I want to try and get a little more out before going behind a paywall...

After leaving the Duchess's frozen palace, we returned to our normal lives rather quickly.
Jahi and I completed our lessons under Baroness Estra, sad that she had to leave so quickly, however we were happy because the Empress offered her an official position as the Etiquette Teacher for all her children, including her future children.
With that new promotion, Baroness Estra and her husband moved to the capital, and were moved from Barons to Viscounts.
Shortly after that, Arch Mage Kolia announced that she had to leave for the Western Border, where her sister and her family were in trouble.
Baron Jilk had left without much fanfare, and we found it rather entertaining how he tried to almost threaten the Marquess to let him stay, saying that people would speak about how uneducated Jahi would be.
