"Here I was planning to begin the selection for the position of Crown Princess, but you have to leave for war." The Queen had a heavy expression on her beautiful face, looking at her son who was wearing newly polished armour with his sword hung to his waist. "When are you leaving?"

"I believe it will take about two or three more hours for the military supplies to be secured," he replied. "However, the troops who will be in the vanguard are prepared to be dispatched as soon as Father gives his speech."
