Kingdom of Oshua
Capital City
Since the news regarding the concubine selection was released, Oshua has been in turmoil.
Despite the time when the news was released, just when the hard-working farmers were about to start the planting season, those who had girls at home started preparing like crazy.
In those three months, maidens from households, from small to big, were all eager to try their luck. Since there weren't any restrictions regarding the selections, those who could afford it, went for it.
After three months, the capital city was flooded. The maidens came with escorts who hoped that their candidates would also be selected. Who didn't want to be graced by such a blessing?
Just a day before the selections start, in a certain inn, a young woman sat behind the curtain and across from her were two men who weren't looking at the woman directly, despite the curtain being put between them.
