The day of Arielle's departure for the academy with Irene, Aimee, and William had arrived. The four of them set off on a carriage containing Arielle, Irene, and Aimee, while William went on his horse to guard the rear with several other knights.
Arielle visited Ronan's study first to ask the man permission to leave the palace. Ronan was busy discussing something with Priest Louise and Priest Elis when she entered the room. Arielle already knew that Ronan had told them everything he knew about the memoir of Princess Cecillia. They were also looking into the possibilities regarding the power of the blood that could heal any wounds and diseases like the elixir of immortality.
Priest Elis and Priest Louise stood to welcome the queen. Then, Arielle approached Priest Louise first to greet him.
