"We have finally arrived." I uttered once I stepped out of the carriage. "I have not been here for years."
"You are not alone, Raphael." Mom responded, still inside the carriage. "I haven't visited here for years since only your Mother visited the Imperial Capital annually."
"Yes, Mom. It has been so long that I forgot about the huge temperature drop between here and our home."
After a few minutes on the road, we reached the main gate of the city and smoothly passed it since we were aristocrats. Another few minutes from the gate, we finally arrived at our destination, our manor in the Imperial Capital.
Since the empire was situated on the northern portion of the continent, the temperature here surely was colder than in Raevender territory. The winter just started, and the snow had not fallen yet, but the temperature here almost hit zero and was chilly.
