Interlude ─ Pleiades

After what happened with the Luxor spaceship, things quieted down in the empire.

At the Fitzclarence mansion an important meeting was taking place.

This meeting did not involve the presence of the head of the house, nor his wife, much less his heir.

It was a meeting where seven "women" were at a table having tea and snacks.

The organizer of said meeting was Nirvana.

"All right, everyone ready?"

"Yes."

Replied the other six women in different tones.

"Good. We will begin our first meeting of the year about the wonderful man the young master has become."

It was the meeting at which no one but them would be present.

For as long as they can remember, the Pleiades have been fervently enchanted with Jake.

No one knows why except for them and neither would they reveal it for reasons known only to them.

"We will begin in turns, I will start."
