Chapter 134: 134 Reminiscences Part 5 - Empress Rifnia -

It's been a while since a serious secret meeting was held in the Red Rose Room.

Just after Diana entered Kusazuki, she received a visit from Master Magnom.

It is not uncommon for the head mistress to visit the Red Rose Room, but that day's visit was last minute and was not through the front door leading to the main room as usual, but through the door for the maidservants. That was enough to make me realize that this was not an official visit but a confidential one.

Please forgive me for this rude visit so early in the morning.

It's okay. If Madame Magnum is here in secret, there must be something going on that cannot be made public.

It's nothing too serious, ...... but in the sense that it can't be made public, you're right.

After a slight chuckle, Mrs. Magnum turned to Mia, who was standing behind her.

"I'm sorry, Miss Diana. I'm sorry, Miss Diana, but I'm afraid you'll have to wait until after breakfast to change into your lady's dress.　Mia has taken care of the preparations for you.

"A lady's dress?　I don't mind, but can't I wear my ...... maidservant uniform?

There are very few maids of honor in the place we are visiting. The place we are going to visit has very few maidservants, and since we all know each other, a strange maid might be remembered. In this regard, if you are with me, you will be recognized as the chief maidservant without any problem, and you will not attract any attention.

"So that's it. I understand.

It's not that I don't like to wear a maidservant's uniform, it's just that I've worn them many times before, and if I wanted to, I could take them on and off perfectly by myself without bothering Mia. After finishing her meal as she was told, Deanna and Mia retreated to their private quarters to get ready. She also put on her brown wig, which is essential for covert operations, and her disguise was complete.

"How about this?

"...... You're the best, sir. Fiona was a master of disguise, but Master Diana is well-trained.

I'm not even close to my aunt's level yet. ...... If Madame Magnum can say that, then it's unlikely that anyone will recognize me as this 'lady'.

"Yes. --Then show us the way.

Yes, please.

Incidentally, even at this point, Madame Magnum still hasn't told us exactly where we're going. It seems to be a place that must be carefully kept secret.

Whether it was because Madame Magnom was following her, or whether some arrangement had been made while Diana was changing, there was no sign of Rita or the other maids of the Red Rose Room following her. This is the first time I've ever seen a woman in disguise. She was able to trace the movements of the ladies without any problem.

As she walked through the palace, Madame Magnom would stop her several times, sometimes to hand her documents or to ask her about the handling of important equipment, which she would then take care of. Eventually, when I reached a deserted corridor, the lady in front of me looked back at me with an expression of both dismay and admiration.

I asked you to wear a lady's dress, but I didn't ask you to act as a lady while you were wearing it.

You say that, but since you are Madame Magnum's valet, it would be unnatural for you not to do the work that a valet is supposed to do, and wouldn't that make you look bad?

Even the way you use your words ...... is very thorough.

I've always thought it was quite irreverent to speak in such a casual manner to a lady of the caliber of Mrs. Magnum, even though it was unavoidable due to my position as the first in line to her side. For me personally, I feel more comfortable now.

Mrs. Magnom, who had accepted the position of chief lady's maid through Fiona's connections, had been called a very capable lady's maid when she was a daughter, and she was such an excellent lady that she was requested to stay in the royal palace as a lady's maid when she was accepted into the Marquis Magnom family. I'm sure you'll be able to understand that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this. The fact that you're talking to her like that, no matter how much you're the first in line to her side, is frankly heartbreaking.

Smiling at Deanna's true intentions, Madame Magnum took the documents Deanna was holding and hid them in an appropriate place.

You don't need to worry about that. If Deanna was not worthy of her position, I would not have been appointed to the position of Master-in-Chief in the first place.

I'm sure you'll agree. ...... To be honest, I respect Madame Magnom so much that if there was no such thing as a palace, I would have liked to have been introduced to her through Aunt Fifi's contacts and asked her to teach me various things.

It's a great honor, but I've been away from aristocratic society for a long time. Even if I had been introduced by Fiona, I doubt that I would have had the opportunity to speak to the noblewoman personally at that time. When I was offered the position of headmistress,......, I can tell you now that I was planning to turn it down 80% of the time.

So you were at ......?　But why?

Come on, ........ I would say it was because I was touched by a beautiful soul that was struggling but never gave up in the face of a much harsher reality than I had faced in the past.

Mrs. Magnum looked at me with a soft smile, which I rarely see, and unintentionally rendered me speechless and blushing. Since she rarely had the opportunity to receive unreserved praise from older women outside of her own family, Mrs. Magnom's words were more embarrassing than flattering.

As Deanna's face fell, Mrs. Magnom's kind words rained down on her.

You really don't know yourself, do you? You have never lost sight of yourself in any adversity, you love people, you love life, you love the world. You can easily hate someone and curse the world given your situation, but you never choose to do so. It's hard to remain cloistered in your own humility in the face of such a blessed soul. ......

It's too much of a compliment. ...... I'm not that great of a person. If that's how I appear to you, it's because of my family and everyone at Cresta who raised me that way and made me believe that the world is beautiful.

"Of course, your parents, your brother, and the people who raised you are wonderful, of course. Of course, your parents, your brother, and the people who raised you were wonderful, but no matter how good your education, people can still be warped. You must not deny your own upbringing and the beauty of your own soul.

...... I recall Kai saying something similar to this to me once. This is a personality trait, and I don't think I'll be able to acquire the brazenness to affirm myself all of a sudden.

Thank you, ....... I will continue to work hard to be worthy of her saying that.

I have come to believe that someone is thinking fondly of me, and I should take that to heart.

Smiling and nodding, Mrs. Magnum seemed to have finished hiding her set of items and slowly returned to her posture.

Now - shall we go?

Yes. ...... Well, where to?

Over the wall, beyond the wall.

"......What?

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

I'm not sure what to make of it.　I'm sure you'll be able to find something that works for you. ......

I've already informed him of your visit. She is very happy and is waiting for you.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

"Yes. That's why I'm doing this unofficially.

"Wow. ......

My head hurts. ...... So that's why you didn't tell us where you were going until the last minute, and why you had to dress in such a way as to avoid attracting attention. It's true that "here" is a place that Diana and the Red Rose would never officially set foot.

However, it would be a breach of decorum to turn around when you've already announced your visit and are on your way. As usual, Madame Magnom was both serious and devious, but on this occasion, Diana looked at her with a bit of resentment.

"...... Just to be clear, you are the only one who knows about my visit, aren't you?

"I'm sure it's just her and a few of her trusted maids.

I'm surprised she would go to such lengths to invite me. ......

I'm rather impressed with your patience, sir. I'm impressed that you've been able to hold out this long. Since the first time I gave my inaugural speech, I've been pressured from time to time to ask if I could see you yet.

...... It's been several years since we last met, but apparently "she" is still the same. Personally, I'm rather impressed that such a person can stay in one palace.

--But then again, there are very few people in this kingdom who know the real "her".

You'll be able to find a lot more information at ....... Let's say hello.

I'm not sure what to say, but I'm going to say it.

I'm sure you'll be glad to hear that.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. The Inner Palace, where Deanna and her entourage reside, is of course included in the Inner Palace, but there are several other palaces in the Inner Palace, each with a different role.

The Spring Palace was mainly used as the residence of the crown prince, and the Flower Palace was for the princes and princesses other than the crown prince.

And then there was the Palace of Wisteria, the final home of the Queen Dowager, the queen of the previous king.

"Well, well, well!　Thank you for coming, Diana!

Before she could make a formal bow to the royal family, she was hugged tightly by someone who seemed to be waiting for her. Even though it was a half-expected turn of events, Diana couldn't help but laugh lightly at the person who was still the same.

"Empress Dowager. I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.

"Oh, I see. I'm sorry Deanna, did it hurt?

No, it's ...... fine.

When she was able to leave, thanks to Madame Magnum, Diana adjusted her posture and made her royal bow.

I've been away for a while, Queen Dowager Rifania. I'm glad to see that you're as healthy as ever.

"...... already!　You haven't changed a bit, Deanna. You don't have to be so polite in an informal setting. You can call me "Little Mother Rifa" like you always do.

No, it's too dangerous to call me that in the royal palace, let alone in ...... Crestor's domain, isn't it?

I'm not sure. You never know who might be watching you, so it's best to be cautious. But this is the Palace of Wisteria, and I wouldn't even let an unscrupulous person betray me here. You don't have to be so careful in here.

...... Well, it's true that the security and confidentiality of the Palace of Wisteria is of a high standard, judging from the fact that this bold and cautious person, who is one of the most cautious people in the world, is not afraid to go back to his simple self. She nodded honestly and relaxed her shoulders.

It's been a while. --It's been a long time, Little Mother Rifa. I've been so close to you since last summer, please forgive my absence.

It's true. I've been looking forward to seeing when you would overcome the barriers of the palace and sneak over to see me.

I've been looking forward to seeing when she'd get over the wall and sneak over to see me." "...... Even though your family is known for being reckless, reckless and unorthodox, you can't be that wild. You can't be sure where people will look in the palace, even if the Fuji Palace is safe.

"That's the point, after all. Even when I was the only one in the palace, I was always seen by many people, but now there are more than forty concubines, aren't there?　I'm sure you'll feel uncomfortable with all the people around you.

She put her hands on her cheeks and sighed as if to say, "Oh, dear." Despite her casual tone, she was very delicate and graceful. Her skin is so white and smooth that it is hard to believe that she has a son over 20 years old. In fact, in front of her beauty, even the reality that she has given birth to a child becomes a blur. Her beauty is so complete that it is easy to forget that she is a human being.

Rifania Mondo Ergrand, the younger sister of Prime Minister Volz, married into the royal family from the second royal family, the Dukes of Mondria, is undoubtedly the woman with the noblest blood and roots in the current kingdom.

Her appearance is like a sculpture of a goddess, from the shape of her face to her body and every single eyelash, she has a beauty that is in a sense inhuman. Whenever Deanna sees her, she is struck by the mystery of her genes, thinking back to her half-brother and half-sister, Volz. Deanna does not look much like Edward, but not as much as this brother and sister.

But just because she looks like a goddess on the outside doesn't mean that she is as majestic and solemn on the inside as a goddess, as you can see.

Well, we can't just stand around talking, so have a seat. Sharon, please have a seat.

Thank you very much.

Thank you." "I appreciate your concern, but as the head of ......, I can't be in the same room as the Queen Mother or the Red Rose.

"Oh, my God!　I've already told you. This is an unofficial occasion and you and Diana are my guests. Let me treat you properly.

......'s personality is that of a meddlesome and caring lady who can be found in every town. In a way, she is more like the Elgrands than her husband, the former King Auster.

This is the first time I've ever seen such a thing in my life.

When Rifania took the teapot and poured the tea into the cup, Mrs. Magnum gave her a rather cold look.

It's not good for your health to be eating sweet treats in the morning like this.

"That's enough. Even I don't eat sweets every day in the morning. Today is special because I'm inviting you here.

I hope that's okay. ......

Okay, it's ready!　Deanna, would you like some before it gets cold?

Thank you, little mother. ...... Oh, delicious. It's the original blend. Was it your idea, little mother?

Yes, she did. When I'm confined to the palace, I have no choice but to devote myself to indoor hobbies like this. In the past two years, I've tripled the number of recipes for sweets, created many original blends of herbal teas, and accumulated a lot of new patterns and knitting patterns.

"Well. May I take a look at them later?

Of course. I wanted to get Deanna's opinion on herbal tea blends. I'd have to see an expert for the taste, but not for the benefits.

I think this blend is very well made. I think this blend is very well made. ...... It is a great tea to drink in the morning, as it gently promotes wakefulness and mood elevation. It's also a great way to wake up.

"Really?　Really? This is one of my best new products. I'm glad you approve!

I'm glad to get your approval!" The way the owner of the perfect beauty expresses her joy with her whole body, not just her facial expression, is enough to make you feel as if everything around her is glowing. If she was just a natural, she would have become a beautiful woman in a leaning castle without being aware of it, but she knew her own charms well enough to switch her responses perfectly depending on the other person. She knew her appearance and the effect it had on the people around her, and she used all of that to lead the social world of the past - she was the "Three Flowers of the Social World" of the Dualis generation, and she was the person who was called the pinnacle of that group. After marrying into the royal family, she continued to support the administration of King Auster from the inner court, demonstrating her skills to the fullest.

In a sense, she is an amazing person who can be said to be a symbol of the previous era, but she is basically like this when it comes to those whom she has forgiven. Deanna is the daughter of Rifania's best friend, Elizabeth, so when she first met her as a child, she was introduced to her as "your mother's friend, Little Mother Rifa," and treated her as such. Like Auster, I didn't know that they were the king and queen of this country until I was somewhat older.

I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's had a bad experience.

It's been a long time since I've seen you, by the way. I haven't seen Ellie or Dewar since the end of the mourning in Oerth. Are you two doing well?

"Yes, thanks to you. ...... I'm sorry that I've caused you so much trouble with my arrival at the palace.

I'm sorry. It's natural for parents to worry about their children. If you're doing something wrong, but you're not ashamed of your conscience, you should be proud of yourself.

"...... By that logic, I'm sure Little Mother Rifa is worried about His Majesty Juke.

I'm not sure what to say, but I think it's a good idea.

I can't believe that little Deanna has grown up to be so worried about me as her mother. No wonder I'm getting old.

"What do you mean? You look as beautiful as you did when I first met you as a child at Clester.

Well, you look like one. If Juke doesn't have a queen, and even though he's retired, he's still at the top of the kingdom's women's list, his shabby, limp appearance alone will lower the country's prestige. I've spent a fair amount of money and time and effort to make sure my appearance is up to scratch.

What can I say? ...... You're right, little mother.

If you're a woman, no matter what kind of effort you put in behind the scenes, you're likely to humble yourself and say, "No, I'm not," when people praise your beauty. She makes it clear that a woman needs money and effort to maintain her beauty. When she married into the royal family, she said to the nobleman who disgraced his own wife in order to lift her up and said in public, "I wish my wife would follow your example a little. It's no wonder I'm beautiful. I've spent a lot of money to make sure that I'm not inferior next to His Majesty as a queen. ...... So, how much money do you spend on your wife? This is a famous anecdote.

She smiles with a goddess-like beauty and compassion.

I've given you a lot of grief about ...... Juke.

"Little Mother, .......

"Of course, as a mother, I was worried about Juke, you know?　As a mother, I was worried about Juke, of course, and I blamed myself when the Ministry of the Interior acted cunningly and made it impossible for me to interfere in his education. --But I still chose to believe in her. Even though I don't see him often, when I do, he is the first person I think of when I'm worried about Oath and my health.

"...... Uncle Oath said that Your Majesty's kindness was 'like that of Rifa.

"Well. I'm not as kind as Aust. What is he talking about?

I can see why Juke thinks Auster and Rifania are the perfect couple. The adults around Deanna, including her parents, all have amicable families, but for Juke, who has witnessed the dry relationship between men and women with interests in the royal court since he was a child, it would have been an absolute and supreme light that his parents were a loving and trusting couple. It is not hard to imagine that he would have been eager to keep that light, no matter what he had to give up.

I was worried about him, but I believed in Juke. I was worried, but I believed in Juke. So no matter how the palace moved, it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. It's ......, but it's true. When I was told that you were going to be in the Red Rose Room, I protested ...... to your brother, probably for the first time in my life.

"Little mother, it's ......

The only people who can fix this situation from all sides are Diana and the Cresta family. I didn't need to be told that, and I knew it was for the best. But, but ......!

You'll be able to find a lot more than just a few things to do.

"...... I'm sorry, Deanna. I'm really sorry.

"Rifa, my little mother. Oh, my God, it's...

"It must have been hard for you. --It must have been hard for you to stay by the side of that child who doesn't know about the pledge of Legrand and Rest, who continues to misunderstand Clester, and not be able to say anything.

My eyes are burning. She shook her head several times to cover up her tears.

No, no, no. No, no, no. I'm the one who used the imperial order as an excuse to break a last-minute letter. If Lord Porast finds out, he'll be furious.

What are you talking about? You can't be mad at me for being a kind-hearted girl who loves her parents and her brother. I'm sure you'll be very happy with the results. ...... No matter how much pain you've gone through to keep your vows, there's nothing left for you to do when you leave the nobility. I'm not sure how much more I need to be thinking about other people.

"It's not such a pretty theory. I didn't want to see the miracle that has been connected to me since time immemorial break down before my eyes. I could not bear the thought of my brother, who had always longed for his father and the Austrians, suffering because he could not have them. ...... It's all just self-satisfaction.

That's right. In the end, Deanna moved to avoid what she did not want to see, to avoid the reality that she could not bear. It's never the beautiful "self-devotion for the sake of others" that everyone says. It is always based on the simple and clear logic of "because I don't like it," which is the ultimate self-centeredness.

Refernia and Mrs. Magnum in front of her laughed at Deanna's words.

You can't even count the number of people who have been saved by your "self-satisfaction. ...... You're really stubborn in that way. You're so stubborn. You're just like Ellie when she was younger.

"Yes, really. You are very much like Duarisse in her compassion and Elizabeth in her stubbornness. Deanna is their beloved daughter, isn't she?

I've never heard much about ......, but was Master Magnum also a friend of my parents?

"She worked at the royal court when she was younger. When I was younger, I worked at the royal court and often helped Master Rifania, the fiancée of His Royal Highness Prince Auster, to secretly invite Elizabeth and Fiona to the palace.

"Wow. ......

"Because the palace was so boring and stuffy. Nowadays, they don't make such a big deal about it anymore, but when I was young, I was always told, 'It's not for a queen to do. I have to invite my friends over once in a while to have fun.

To be honest, Diana almost agreed with that opinion, but she could not help but feel pity for Mrs. Magnum, who was often forced to help her with this. But I can't help but feel sorry for Mrs. Magnum, who was often asked to help with this.

"Oh, yes. I'm sure you've heard of her.

As if suddenly remembering, lightly. However, in a tone that showed that Rifania had probably invited Diana to talk about this from the beginning, she began again.

I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's a fan of your work. ...... Does she really intend to make that young lady a full-fledged queen?

"It's not just you, Your Majesty. It is the consensus of all of the named individuals, with the exception of Master Peony, that Shayla is to be the rightful queen.

I've heard that the girl is from a new baronial family, her parents are dead, she was adopted by her aunt and uncle who have no knowledge of the customs and manners of aristocratic society, and her uncle is the heir to the title?

Yes, well, ......

I'm sure you're all aware of the fact that it would take a miracle for a girl like that to be recognized as a legitimate queen by the old-timers, but you want her to be one?

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's a good idea. Once the beauty of Rifania showed such sternness and strength, most people would fall for the dignity of a goddess.

--But...

"Yes. I am aware of all this, and I wish to have Shayla as my queen.

And why is that?

"Little Mother ...... No, Queen Dowager Riffania. I think. I believe that in the future, the days when birth and surroundings define a person will be over.

In the face of Rifania's sincerity, Diana responded with her own sincerity as well.

It is true that Shayla was born into an upstart baronial family, and her current adoptive parents are not the most flattering of people. However, that and Shayla's own qualities are two separate issues. No matter what one's birth is, no matter what one's adoptive parents are, with one's own talent and effort, one can create a path to the future that one desires. --I'm sure such a time will come in the future.

"Oh, well. If that's the case, then the current status quo will be useless, won't it?

In my humble opinion, yes, it will. I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this subject in the coming weeks. I think that in the not too distant future, in the generation of our children and grandchildren, the era of royalty and nobility ruling the people will be over, and the people themselves will decide the future of the country.

This was the gradual flow of the times that Diana had come to see naturally as a member of the Crestor family, mixing with the people and experiencing the country firsthand. I'm sure that Dualis and Edward feel the same way, though they probably don't say it out loud. The blood of the Wise Man that flows through Crester can see from one event to a hundred, and sometimes even a thousand or ten thousand. Although she is not as good as her father and brother, Diana has certainly inherited the wise eye of the sage.

This is like an irresistible wave of the times. It's a good thing that you're not the only one who has a problem with this. I'm sure you're aware of that, but I'm not sure if you're aware of that.

...... So that's it. And for that reason, you dare to make the daughter of nothing a full-fledged queen?

"If Shayla herself didn't like it, of course, we would have had to find another way. Fortunately, your Majesty and she share the same feelings and wish to spend the rest of their lives together. --It would be wonderful if fulfilling their wishes could become a symbol of a new era.

The time will come when people will no longer live according to their status, but rather will place more importance on themselves than on their birth and upbringing, and they will be able to be anything they want to be if they want to and work hard enough. It will be an age in which even a child born into a farming family will have an infinite number of options other than inheriting the farm.

In that case, perhaps. The people's hearts and minds will turn away from the royal family, whose value system has become universal: "If you are born the eldest son of a king, you will automatically become the next king. The people will complain about why the king and the nobles are the only ones who decide the future of the country, when they should be living the same way. As Rifania said, the status system will not only become a skeleton, but also a useless one.

It is the fate of the world to throw away old things when they are no longer needed. ...... If we continue to remain complacent and indifferent to change, the royal family and the nobility will have no choice but to be abandoned by the people.

To avoid that.

"At least the royal family is affirming a new era. "At the very least, the royal family affirms the new era." "The royal family is willing to accept a person, regardless of his or her status, upbringing, or parentage, as long as he or she is of good character and worthy of the position. --There is no more effective way to show this to the people than to have a full queen in Shayla.

It means that the royal family itself is willing to accept change as a symbol of a new era, before being dismissed as a symbol of old values. In other words, it is the only way to keep the House of Elgrand together.

Yes. --So, to put it bluntly, we can't afford to listen to the opposing opinions of people who have their heads stuck in a knot and who will definitely be eliminated within a hundred years if things continue as they are. The royal family of Elgrand is probably now at the fork in the road of whether or not it can adapt to the times ahead. The traditions that the old-timers have mentioned are important, but I would rather see His Majesty Juke and Shayla and their children live out their lives in happiness.

Honestly, the Crester family alone can handle anything. To begin with, being a member of the nobility is a joke, and the head of the family and the next generation will return to the nobility and become commoners without any hesitation if they deem it the most reasonable thing to do. It is a family that has nothing to do with the kind of loveliness that would cause them to die of hunger if they became commoners again.

However, since they have been nobles for more than three hundred years, there are naturally ties that have been formed during that time. Not only the Elgrands, but also the Swons, Mondrias, and Diana's own family, the Stressias, Eustoles, and Keels, cannot be abandoned. Even if they will eventually cease to be nobles, I hope that they will continue in some way to the next generation.

That's why I'm trying to find a way for the royal family and the nobility to survive before the big swell becomes visible.

"...... I understand. When I heard that you were pushing for Miss Shayla Callerd to become queen, I knew it was unlikely, but I was afraid that you were going to go in the direction of 'my best friend wants it, so I'm going to do it, even if I have to silence the opposition by force. From what Sharon told me, she didn't seem to have lost her cool that much, so I knew it was an unnecessary worry.

Thank you for your concern. Of course, I want Shayla and Juke to be happy. But in another sense, ...... I've been feeling the big trends of the times for the past few years, and I've been thinking from time to time about how we can overcome these times of change in the most peaceful way possible. When Shayla told me that she was thinking of Juke and that she wanted to be his wife, it was as if a vision had suddenly opened up.

"You did?

I don't think ...... you know that I've been thinking about you that much.

I don't know. I don't know. Whether or not you can articulate it as clearly as I can, I think you can sense the new wind blowing in the kingdom. If you can sense this wind, you will sooner or later come to the same conclusion as I have.

I believe this is the reason why the "Wise Eyes" of the Crester family are sometimes said to "see into the future". In short, the power of the "wise man" is the ultimate ability to see quickly, to arrive at a conclusion in one breath that would normally require the collection of a hundred events to reach. It is the same reason why generations of families have kept the things they have discovered or developed with their "wise eyes" in the basement of their mansions, not showing them to the world, because "in a few more years or decades, someone else will think the same thing and spread it to the world. In fact, in the documents of the past lying in the basement of the mansion, there are many knowledge and technologies that were groundbreaking at the time, but are commonplace today. It seems that although they have a great desire for knowledge, they have been accumulating wisdom and knowledge in vain for many years because they are a family that has nothing to do with worldly desires to do with the knowledge they have acquired.

--Perhaps because they understood Diana's true intentions, the expressions of Rifania and Master Magnum changed. They looked at each other and nodded, then looked straight at Deanna again.

I'm glad to hear your thoughts. I'm glad to hear your thoughts. Now we can talk about the future without worry.

"May I explain to you what Master Riffania and I have come up with regarding the future of the palace and the process of installing a full queen?
