"Lady Stella, look at here. Don't you think this ribbon looks beautiful?"
Today is the day when Stella, now a future crown princess, and her maid Emma venture into the bustling city for some fun. The city is abuzz with a once-a-year sales carnival, a tradition Stella never misses. This year, even with her elevated status, she's determined to enjoy the day as she always has.
What is different is that this time, she has to go with a number of royal knights sent by the crown prince for her safety, and through this, she realizes that she can no longer go anywhere by herself. This is her first time going out after her engagement with the crown prince, so she is a little nervous.
Despite the public's anticipation of her becoming a crown princess, their response to her remains warm and friendly. It seems Aiden's image as a tyrant crown prince has softened since their engagement, a change that surprises Stella, given Aiden's usual reminders about public perception.
