"Milady looks beautiful as always!" Erin gushed as she stared at me with adoration in her eyes.

It's finally the day of reckoning. You guessed it right, it's the Founding Ball! The ball where ladies and gentlemen would mingle with each other, whether they are from Noble blood or not. Everyone in the empire, as long as they're citizens, are invited.

The ball in the palace are for the nobles while the lively plaza are for the rest. That has always been that way.
