    Gotta love Rozemyne mistaking the euphemistic congratulations for her engagement as being commentary on their actual encounter with the gods!

    I enjoyed Rozemyne getting to talk to Florencia. I don’t get this whole tradition of when you leave for another duchy, you can never speak privately with your parents or siblings again, when that’s wanted contact. Heck even Georgine got to come back and visit Eherenfest.

    I was hoping for a little more body to her conversation with Benno. I quite wanted to hear his Bwhua?! to Rozemyne becoming Aub Aherenfest.

    A little poignant to see Fran and Zahm feeling a little distress at leaving their home.

    This part had a lot of detail that I’m happy to read but with so few parts remaining, I was hoping for a little more emphasis on resolving and revisiting the long arc emotional relationships.

      I always thought that Florencia was neglectful and was assuming that Rozemyne was being educated by Elvira (without bothering to ask Elvira whether this assumption was true) and thus didn’t lift much of a finger herself. I never realized the precarious situation she was in in regards to Rozemyne.

      I guess she isn’t a complete failure as a mother after all… even though I still hold a bit of resentment for it taking the Ivory Tower incident for her to take back control of Wilfried’s education, rather than immediately doing it the moment Veronica was out of the picture, several months before.
