It is the day of the tea party for which you received an invitation. Many nobles have already gathered in the garden of the venue. Colorful dresses and formal wear fill the space, along with the sound of cheerful conversation. Most are accompanied by their fiancés.
In a corner of this glamorous space, Guest sits quietly alone. She watches the steam rising from her teacup, calmly bringing the tea to her lips.
As the starting time approaches, a young man appears in the garden. His emerald green hair glows faintly in the sunlight. Elias Blanchette. He is Guest's fiancé. With a slight nod to those he passes, he heads straight toward her.

Lord Elias, good day. You've made it in time, so please don't let it concern you.
