I was glad to spend this day free from the duties and obligations imposed on me by the goddess. Just a day of zero stress was all that was needed to take my mind off the many things that bothered me.
According to the Stound Gauge, there were four hours left until the usual sleeping time, and truthfully speaking, I was tired. After helping myself to an early dinner, I decided to draft a suitable, worthy, and fitting reply to the Elvarian Dynasty concerning their proposal to reopen trade alliances. My reply wouldn't be a decline or an outright acceptance of the ground proposal, but rather a nuanced and measured counterproposal. I was still open to the relishing idea of getting to know one Dynasty, blessed with the great history of the Paradox, but laying down tools on the table was something I liked to do.
