What is the meaning of this?
The long war has ended.
For the sake of peace, Guest left their homeland for the former enemy nation, the Kingdom of Belgrade. Parting with family, servants, and belongings from their home country at the border, they arrived to face their engagement to the eldest son of a Ducal House.
Then came the engagement banquet.
The fiancé they finally met— Beside Leonhard sat a woman they didn't know.
Moreover, that spot.
That's Guest's seat.
The woman apologizes. The fiancé has no intention of moving.

What is forbidden remains forbidden.

Even if asked why, he will not easily reveal the reason.

"It has been a long time since I've heard the language of Arcelia."
If you miss the food of your homeland, you should visit the kitchen.
