This morning, Mount Glimmer was unusually lively.
Dariel Cooper had invited representatives from other families, Marcus Moore from the Moore family, Renny Jaron from the Jaron Family, as well as the young masters from some smaller families.
However, the other two major families, the Jefferson family was in prison, and the Lindsay family's young master, Arthur, was hospitalized. As such, nobody from these families was able to attend.
This gathering was mainly to celebrate Aurora Cooper's return to the Cooper family; a joyous reunion indeed.
Ella Lacey pulled Marcus to a quiet spot near a hill and asked him mysteriously, "Marcus, when did you get back? Weren't you in B Country?"
"I came back ten days ago." Marcus looked at her gaunt face, his tone full of concern, "Ella, we haven't been apart long, how have you lost so much weight?"
"It's a long story." Ella bit her lip, "Have you seen Arthur yet?"
