章 323: Bonus Arc 5 Not Going As Planned

Larkin knew he would have a long road ahead of him to earn forgiveness for attempting to sneak a peek into the ladies baths, but he never thought it would be quite this demanding. Today he was out in the hot desert sun, pruning and maintaining the plants at the Castle. Kone had dragged him out of bed first thing in the morning, declaring that it was time to start earning some of his penance.

Normally the druids do all of this work at night, but Kone has no intention of telling Larkin that. So instead, she's given him a filter net and he's cleaning the blown sand out of one of the many fish ponds, a task she herself could do in seconds, using magic. But that's not the point of a punishment.
