Year 750
Sabastian is now 5 months old he now know how to sit up by himself.
Sabastian was by himself today after a long time so he was trying to digest something that he doesn't understand at all
I wonder why they love me so much,
I don't show them lovely expression or laugh for them so why do they all still smile at me and care for me.
In my previous life I have no reason to smile and if I don't respond to them they will eventually ignore me or give me a betting.
But I have been so unusual even as a baby they are not scared let alone angry.
When he was trying to think of a reason to why they love and care for him unconditionally Vivienne came to the room.
"Hey sweetheart what are you doing alone"
"Come let's meet someone who is very special and close to me "
Vivienne pick him up gently and hold him
I wonder who can it be that is close and special to her.
They started to go towards the garden
Don't tell me is it the person who I think it is
They reached the garden and everyone was already there
Sabastian saw a tall man who slowly turn toward him
"Brother this is your nephew Sabastian isn't he cute"
If it's Vivienne brother he must be Henry Jones Greyhowl a character who don't appear much but his name was often use by character for various reasons.
"Hi my dear nephew I'm your uncle"
Henry took Sabastian from Vivienne
" Now it's uncle and nephew time"
Henry was a character whose name was always use as an example by the professor while in the academy part but he himself doesn't appear much in the novel. I wonder why is he not the one who is going to inherit the dukedom. He is also a legitimate hire so why
"Brother are you not busy"
"The academy is currently closed and their is not much work so I have plenty of free time "
Academy???
Did he became a professor or what
Why would he become a professor instead of becoming a grand duke?
"Oh my dear nephew i have not introduced myself right"
I already know your name
"My name is Henry Jones Granbel Greyhowl "
Wait Granbel?
"And I'm the current headmaster of the Granbel academy "
In the novel Granbel is the title given to every headmaster as it was the title of the founder of the academy.
And if you become an headmaster of Granbel their is no guarantee that his/her child will be the next headmaster as the heads of the academy is choosen by their capability.
The headmaster always took in an apprentice and teach everything they got to know in order to become a headmaster. And after their apprentice become headmaster the former headmaster become a member of the academy council.
After spending some time they all went in .
Henry was gonna stay there for few more days until the academy start.
2 month pass by
Henry has already left for the academy. He was unwilling to go but he has to his duty call.
Now Sabastian has started to walk slowly
Vivienne and Vincent was so happy as they witness him took his first step.
After few more months pass by
Sabastian was now 10 months old he can walk quite nicely now
Days were going by very peacefully
Today was Sabastian first birthday and Vivienne was the first person to wish him happy birthday.
"Happy birthday my dear Sabas! May your future be blessed with good health, happiness, love and endless possibilities "
And she kissed him at the forehead
Sabastian felt a warm glow inside after listening to her, as if her words wrapped around him like a comforting embraced. Her voice brought a sense of peace and connection that lifted his spirit and filled him with a profound sense of joy.
As it was something he has desperately wanted in his previous life and unknowingly he smile for the first time in front of Vivienne
Seeing him smile Vivienne felt so happy that a tear of joy fall down from her eyes
Sabastian realised that he was smiling
"Sabas your smile is so sweet you should smile more"
Just then Vincent came in and after seeing Vivienne crying he became worried
"Vivus what happened is everything all right why are you crying"
"Vince "
"Yes "
"Our Sabas just smile"
Seeing her cry nknowingly sabastian at that time called out
"Mama"
Both Vincent and Vivienne could not believe in their ears even Sabastian himself couldn't believe at what he just said.
"Did you hear that he called me mama"
Sabastian was confused to why he was acting like this he look up and saw both of them looking at him lovingly as if their is nothing more precious than him.
Then he came to realise that he had already accepted them as his parents a long time ago, feeling a deep sense of belonging and love. The bond they shared has quietly woven itself into the fabric of his life, and now it filled him with warmth and gratitude. This recognition brought a preform sense of peace, knowing that he had found a true family .
He look up again to them and this time with a smile he called out wholeheartedly
"Mama papa"
Hearing him called them mama papa they ask him "please us one more time"
Sabastian give his brightest smile and called out "mama papa"
Both Vincent and Vivienne was so happy that they hug together and cry { btw Sabastian is still in Vivienne arm so they had a family hug}
Sabastian thought if I had knew that they will be so happy i would have called them earlier
After sometime they went down where everyone was already their to celebrate sabastian first birthday.
Only family members were there from both Vincent and Vivienne side
Everyone wish him happy birthday and they all enjoy their small party.
It ended very peacefully and i enjoyed it. But it was will have been better if Edward and Sophia was not there and the worst part they will be staying here for more days.
Sabastian became more clingy to Vivienne as to kept her away from Edward. But sabastian was not hating it even though he was clingy he was enjoying the motherly love that he was receiving and Vivienne was more than happy that her son was searching for her more.
Days went by and all the Montclair family left.

A little history of GRANBEL ACADEMY:-
Granbel academy was founded by Abraham Elijah Aldridge and his wife Granbel Jenny Aldridge on 02-03-685.
Abraham was a commoner, yet he forged strong friendship with the 1st Emperor Charles and the 1st Grand Duke Callisto, bridging the gap between social classes.
He participated in the war, standing along side with his friends, King Charles and Duke Callisto, despite being a commoner.
He excelled in strategizing, proving invaluable in crafting plans during the war.
After the war was over and was time to reward the warriors. Emperor Charles ask Abraham as a warrior who has shown great bravery, what will you like as a reward for your service in the war??
At their Abraham requested a piece of land that was not under the control of any kingdom or empire, seeking a place of his own.
His request was granted, and he was awarded the land he sought, free from the claim from any Kingdom and Empire.
In addition to the land, he was rewarded with precious jewels, gems and gold, along with a title to honour his bravery and contributions during the war.
Abraham graciously refused the title but requested a middle and last name to honour his new status and legacy.
His request was granted, and he was given the middle name Elijah and the last name Aldridge marking his new status and legacy.
The land he was rewarded was a little away from the Empire, yet it was a very beautiful place, with rolling hills and vibrant landscape.
He began his new life there with his beloved wife, embracing the beauty and tranquility of their surrounding. His wife was a noblewoman who choose to run away, with him leaving her title behind for love.
With the support of their friends Charles and his wife Isabella and Callisto and his wife Catherine, held a small wedding on the day they ran away together, marking the beginning of their journey.
Marriage Date:-24-04-675
Another reason he chose to participate in the was his wife illness; he wanted to secure a better future for her and provide the life she deserves.
The Idea of establishing an academy came from his wife, who has a deep love for reading and a passion for sharing knowledge; her dream was to teach others and inspire them through education.
With the reward he got from the war, he founded the academy, fulfilling his wife's dream of teaching and sharing knowledge with others.
He named the academy after his wife, honouring her passion for learning and teaching.
Initially, there were not many students at the academy, but with the support of his friends Charles and Callisto and few other nobles, it eventually flourished, attracting eager leanners from far and wide.
The academy never discriminate against anyone, welcoming students from all backgrounds and ensuring an exclusive environment for learning.
To this day, the academy has provided education, platform to learn whether from the field of medical or arts chivalry, the academy nurtured in various disciplines, creating a diverse community of excellent scholars and knights. Upholding the values of knowledge and bravery that the founders charished.
As for the reason to why the academy has a custom of choosing headmaster from different backgrounds,age and capability is because the first headmaster Abraham and his wife Granbel doesn't have their own child.
Tragically, his wife passed away at a young age of 39. Grieving her loss, he chose a capable successor to carry on her vision for the academy, ensuring her legacy to lived on.
Sadly soon, he too passed away just three years after her, leaving behind a legacy that would continue through the academy they built together.
