=============================

Turning her attention to the dedicated staff of the mansion, she supervised as they meticulously prepared the beds for the healers.

Adeline made certain the mattresses were adorned with the softest linens, providing the expectant mothers with the utmost comfort for a peaceful night's sleep.

As she completed her preparations, a poignant thought crossed her mind. She couldn't help but wonder about Lady Sophia's fate.

Had she found solace among the spirits of the healer ancestors?

A solitary tear welled up in her eye.

Her heart ached as she contemplated Lady Sophia's destiny. Adeline remained in silent contemplation for an extended moment, her gaze locked on the moon as it gradually disappeared behind a curtain of dark, billowing clouds.
