That day, Broken received news from the knights that someone was waiting for him in the garden.
Who could it be? he wondered.
Clearing up his work, he hurried out of the blacksmith workshop and headed to the garden. There, he saw a woman sitting on a long iron bench, dressed in a white gown with a straw hat and carrying a wooden basket.

He quickened his pace, and soon Ivana noticed him coming. She stood up and waved enthusiastically. She had a cheerful smile when he reached her.
"Good morning, Broken... Are you surprised to see me here?" she said with a giggle.
"Good morning..." he paused for a moment. "How did you get access to this area, Ivana?"
Ivana chuckled softly, covering her mouth with her hand. "Yesterday, Sir Lionell came to see me and told me I had been granted permission to deliver food to you once a day."
