Considerable Growth

In the blink of an eye, three months had passed since the day Yvonne had taken a day's rest to recover from the sudden and unexpected fever that had afflicted her.

Everything went back to its normal routine back in the St. Claire household.

Yvonne's classes began the next day and she paid attention to everything that was being taught to her.

She diligently practiced the Piano each day in hopes of completing her classes with Governess Lester.

Her training with Captain Desmo had been progressing at full speed and she was now allowed to use her sword even in his absence.

Along with sword training, the Captain had begun taking special classes for the little girl to control and improve the powers that her etcher possessed.

Things were also looking better for the relationship between the two siblings.

Over the course of three months, Howard returned home for a meager seven times.
