Marina's Concerns!

Over the past half-month, Harry had made sweeping changes to the way the manor and its surrounding lands were managed. His policy of replacing staff, however, came with an unexpected twist.

Rather than simply dismissing servants and casting them into the streets, Harry released them from their servitude entirely. In a world where noble servants were often treated as little more than slaves, this act was revolutionary.

Under Madam Glenda's rule, these workers had endured grueling labor, barely enough food to survive, and the constant threat of being discarded once they were no longer useful. Harry changed that.

"You're free to go," he had told the dismissed staff. "Take this land and these seeds. Start anew. You owe me nothing."

The announcement left many in shock. Instead of forcing them into destitution, Harry granted them parcels of land and lent them food and seeds to begin farming. It was a second chance at life for people who had known nothing but hardship.
