Kapitel 369: [Elizabeth's Engagement Party] [4] Arrival of the Great Houses

The hall where the engagement party would be held was slowly filling up. Even though the event was scheduled to begin in half an hour, guests were already arriving in large numbers. This early attendance was a sign of respect, especially when the party involved a Great House. Being invited by the Tepes House was a significant honor, and any noble would want to make a good impression. Many hoped that by arriving early, they would have the opportunity to speak with the prominent figures of the Tepes House, attempting to forge connections.

Nobles made sure to bring along their sons and daughters of appropriate age, hoping to secure favorable engagements or other opportunities. Although the chances of arranging a match with one of the princes or princesses of the Great Houses were slim, they still harbored hopes for other connections.
