Chapter 57: The Archduchess’ speech
Quick author's note:
I had embarrassingly had my compass-rose backwards in my head. I plan to go back and correct the typos in previous chapters when I have the chance, but for now know that the coast where the Torivald county is is located to the west, not east. The Kalisto Empire is the westernmost country on the continent and travelling to the east as I mistakenly wrote before wouldn't go to the ocean. Northeast is The Republic, east is The Theocracy, and then the Dìyù Empire is to the east of the theocracy on the opposite coast. And just for the sake of mentioning it, the sultanate is to the south. Sorry for the mistake on my end and I will correct it in previous chapters once I have time to go back for edits. Thank you for your understanding.

AngelAsphodel It's a slightly shorter one from normal, but I hope you enjoy. It just felt like a natural place to end.
Life is kinda stressful right now and I don't know how it's going to affect chapter regularity, but as always I plan to write as much as I can so long as it isn't putting excess strain on me. I'm honestly looking forward to the coming arc in the story, so I certainly have motivation at least!
Anyway, as always I hope you're having a wonderful day~
