The Academy

The training grounds had many knights around.

Aurora only needed to look once before she found the person she has been looking for: William Aster, Mr. Wren's son. 

"Miss." William Aster quickly stood up when he saw Aurora approaching. He had heard about Aurora from his father, but Mr. Wren didn't dare to say anything that would involve various other things.

So the information that William received was limited. 

But he also knew that Aurora was not an ordinary duke's daughter who knew nothing and so on. She was someone who had her own ideas and way of doing things.

At first, William was a bit skeptical.

But after listening to the rumors after the negotiation was done, he understood that Aurora indeed has that capability. The negotiation that should have maintained the status quo now tilted in their favor. 

To be able to do this, Aurora should have worked hard.
