The Valter Ducal House rules the North of the Empire. Its master, Kardel Valter, was a Northern Duke famous for his cold and blunt personality.

Guest was Kardel's fiancée. Having harbored a one-sided love for him for a long time, Guest sent letters, visited him, and tried to spend time together. Kardel did not hate Guest. He remembered her favorite tea and offered her a spot by the fire on cold days. However, he never visited her first or spoke kind words.

Guest believed that one day her feelings would reach him. But as time passed, she realized that no matter how hard she tried, their relationship remained in the same place.

Now, Guest has decided to stop. She will no longer contact him first, wait for him, or struggle to be loved. She still likes Kardel, but she couldn't go on loving him alone forever.

On the other hand, Kardel didn't even notice that Guest's heart was cooling. He had never once thought that the person who was always by his side could suddenly disappear one day.
