Chapitre 115: The new face.

Salviana's smile deepened as she glanced down at her teacup. "It is. I have plans to bring it to life with flowers and herbs. It's barren now, but in time, I think it will become a beautiful space."

Jean's eyes sparkled with interest. "What sort of flowers do you envision here?"

"Oh, a variety," Salviana replied, a touch of excitement in her tone. "Roses, for their boldness. Lavender, for the calm it brings. Perhaps even wildflowers, to give it a bit of whimsy. I want it to be a garden that feels… free, you know? A place where one could forget for a moment that they're within the castle walls."
