Leaving For Two Months

(From Blue's Perspective)

After the disaster on our anniversary night, we were careful about drinking. I almost did not drink anymore and Dem also did not drink strong wine too much. 

Luc left again to look for more dark mages. There were some mages assigned to protect Ruby and the magic tower now after the theft. The thief got caught at the banquet. He turned out to be the son of a fallen noble. He stole some rare herbs to make medicine for his sick old mother. I could not blame him because I would take any risk for my loved ones too. Just as I could sympathize with him, I could not say he was not guilty either.
