Marguerite is oblivious as she folds Arthmael's body into beautiful silhouettes. Following the familiar choreography, she dances relentlessly.

Grand Jete! Penche! followed by a series of graceful pas de chats. All concatenated in front of the enthralled emperor.

When the music reaches the outro in a full stop, Marguerite falls gracefully on the floor in a pose. She stays there and waits for the king to tell her she can leave.

She stays on the ground for a long time but hears nothing from him. Wondering if she did anything wrong, she wants to lift her head to look at the king's face, but quickly remembers the warning he gave her. If she disrespects him any further, who knows what he might do to her.

She suddenly feels her chin being lifted, her eyes meet the hazels of Demian. She forgets to breathe and falls from her pose onto the floor. She doesn't have time to regain her senses before two strong arms lift her off the floor.

She is about to question him on his weird behaviour when her mouth is suddenly covered by his in a kiss.

-------------------------------------------------
Marguerite is very talented. She has a beautiful voice, a great passion for music and various talents in the arts. Unfortunately, her bright future gets compromised when she is forced to leave her world to fulfill the wish of someone else. Marguerite wanting to go home as soon as possible, accepts. However things turn out quite unexpected for her.

To Find Edward

When the light of dusk flickers away from sight for good, Jurian finishes tucking in Marguerite and Eleanor in bed. Then he walks slowly away as to not wake them towards the kitchen.

He lights an oil lamp and takes out the thing that has been making him anxious this whole time.

Marguerite, my dear flower of love, the only love I'll ever feel, my wife.

Immediately, Jurian wants to kill Armel. It's clear as day that Armel expected him to read this. He is declaring ownership over Marguerite by being overly intimate with his words.

However, Jurian still doesn't understand why Armel expected him to give the letter to Marguerite.

I know this may seem confusing to you, but do believe that I am alive. It may be difficult to understand at the moment but worry not, for I will explain it all to you once we reunite.

Jurian snorts. You guys will never reunite.
