Chapter 152: Something is Brewing

=

In the middle of the rising empire of the east lies its capital named Tokyo. There, two palaces stood, the Imperial Palace, which houses the Royal Family of the Yamato Empire, and the Akasaka Palace, a baroque-style architecture palace similar to Hofburg Palace, built primarily for the crown prince. 

The three Grand Duchess / Imperial Princesses of Ruthenia are staying in Akasaka Palace for the duration of their visit to the Land of Yamato.

Anastasia was looking out the window as the sun graced her skin with its gentle rays. Her face shows a hint of disappointment as if something bad has happened. 

"What's the matter, Anastasia?" her sister, Tiffania, approached her and lay a hand on her shoulder, gently. 

"Nothing."

"You don't sound so sure. You never sounded so uncertain before. Is there something bothering your mind?" Tiffania asked.

She shrugged. "I miss our home."
