The Map (1)

I was bed ridden for at least a day after our wedding. I was not really sick, and my body recovered just after a half day's rest, but Regaleon let me rest the whole day in bed to fully recover my energy.

"You have neglected sword practice, and so your built-up stamina dwindled." Regaleon said when we were outside taking a walk.

It was true that I was not able to lift a sword when I was being held hostage by my aunt and cousin in Jennovia. I acted like a weak little girl so that I could gain their trust and spy on them. Those two years bared fruit and I was able to help Regaleon in this war.

"I am sorry." I said with my head bowed down. I admit that I neglected practicing the sword, and Regaleon as my sword master was lecturing me.

I felt Regaleon pat my head and so I looked up. He was smiling at me sweetly.
