章 264: An Excuse to Visit

Corva was sitting in one of her parlors and stared out the window. Ever since she heard about her mother's condition, the lady of the house had not returned to her forge below the mansion.

Seeing her savior in such a state left Yue in a somewhat distraught mood. She also no longer had her older sister, Snow, with her to help her talk to Corva. Yue was the primary caretaker for Lady Corva, but somehow Snow had a way of speaking to her that would easily bring Corva out of moods like this.

For what must have been the thousandth time already today, Corva sighed to herself. She was still dressed in her night clothes, not having the energy to even prepare for the day. Not that she really needed to. People did not visit the mansion often due to how out of the way it was.

"My Lady," Yue called out gently. "You have correspondence from the capital. I have already screened it. It is not regarding your mother."
