Standing by the open window of her room, Lady Adelaide de Lanark delighted in the festivities of the Archduchy.
Twice a year, the town hall hosted a special celebration to honor the birth of each of the Archduke's daughters. The night sky sparkled with dazzling fireworks, and the open-air theater entertained the crowd with popular stories of Kaiser de Lanark's heroic triumph over the last Emperor, which led to the creation of the kingdom of Emoria. As a gesture of thanks, apples and bread were given out to the townspeople, showing the noble family's gratitude.
Adela drew in a deep breath, feeling her chest expand as her lungs filled with air, and released it in a long, heartfelt sigh.
