Going back to Meara's Pregnancy...
Three weeks after being settled in the Palace courtyard, Meara and the people she leads have an established system already. The candy production is in full swing and the course components for the Potion-Making school were finalized quickly.
Meara wants to go home already but the King persuaded her to stay.
"What are you worrying about? It is a good thing to wait for childbirth here. The midwife, doctors, and medicines are readily available here. You will be taken care of. I had them all on standby for you.
Besides, it's been a long time since we've heard a baby cry in the palace. A child brings good luck. Your child born in the palace will have a bright future!"
Meara thinks the King is not making sense with all the luck talk. But she also felt the sincerity of his feelings when it comes to her safe delivery of the child.
