Diary entry... Introduction

January 7th 1830

My name is Daria Verbitzkaya Reynaldy. I am now fourteen years old and my little brother; Cameron Verbitzkaya Reynaldy is 12 years old. My mother; Aisha Verbitzkaya Renaldy bought me this new diary to start off the new school semester and for me to keep a record of my daily activities. My mother was from the Count Verbitzkaya's family and she married my father; Zahraan Bahri Reynaldy from the Earl Renaldy's family. Though we are normally considered noble families of aristocracy, since both my parents aren't the heir to the titles, they have decided to move to this new place. Yes I used to live in the mansion of Earl Reynaldy's estate until we decided to move last summer as my uncle heir to the earldom of Reynaldy got married. So we moved to a forest village in the outskirts of Izhevsk. My parents opened a bakery in the village and they said it had been their lifelong dream to live in a charming little village like this one and to open a bakery. In the beginning Cameron and I felt reluctant to leave the aristocratic world, but after coming here we don't regret it, We initially had to attend the Royal academy in St. Petersburg however we decided to go to a nearby school in Izhevsk. Later for high school I really do want to attend the Royal academy though. Ah my mum is calling me downstairs so I have to go, I'll update you more on what happened later. Maybe I should give you a name, I cannot only write "Dear Diary" now can I? I shall write "Dear companion" maybe? We'll see later."
