"The Overbearing Prince and His Runaway Bride’s Peerless Pampering.”

Looking at the parchment pushed by Astrid, Elowen reached out and took it, carefully reading every line.

Today's recommended outfit was a daily ensemble submitted by the princess of the empire, the Third Princess, Astrid...

Was this a clothing recommendation?

Astrid sat in her seat, arms resting at an angle, legs crossed naturally.

The thin black silk at her knees turned slightly flesh-toned from the movement.

Seeing the light reflected in Elowen's glasses and the gradual slowing of her blinking as she read, Astrid said nothing more, waiting patiently.

After a long moment, Elowen set down the parchment, her thin lips parting slightly.

"This is an article describing a style of dress. What does Her Highness Astrid intend to do with it?"

As a merchant, Elowen's first thought was that Astrid planned to use it for commercial promotion.
