" Do you have everything?"

I was asked to double check my bag again by Sarah. It made sense, she and Anna had also written responding letters to their mail. Sarah's letters were from her family as well as Trish, Asha and Sharon. Anna had a letter by Asha, Sharon, Cynthia, Trish, Aqua and her mother. I was going to ask Warrick to handle our return letters as well as give Sarah and Anna's letters to the people who were still at the Royal Palace when I arrived. After confirming they were all there, I looked back up at both of my wives and gave a firm nod. Their shoulders unwound and they both broke into a smile.

" Okay! Tell them I can't wait to visit!"

" Tell Ms. Aqua and Ms. Tina that I'm doing well!"

" Understood!"

I saluted them like a solider and then contacted Paula. After confirming that she was fine with opening the portal, a burst my black light came from beside me. After Paula greeted my wives, she began to open the portal. I walked through without hesitation. 

" It's about time! John!"

I was greeted by a very excited Aqua. I looked around the room to see Warrick, Trish and Zack. I looked back at Aqua and apologized.

" Sorry, but Sarah and Anna wanted me to double check everything... Then double check again. Eventually, they let me go."

I took out the letters and handed the corresponding ones to the people in the room. I then placed the rest on Warrick's desk. I sat down on one of the chairs in front of the desk. I then looked at Zack and began to speak.

" Did you get a chance to try the vegetables?"

Zack's face twitched and then he began to answer me excitedly.

" Yes! We did! We had the beets last night with our meat dish! It was great! My wife also mentioned that the pickles were just how she liked them!"

I smiled at him.

" That's great. Let me know when you need a refill, you might have to tell Warrick before I report to him."

Zack nodded his head to my words. I'm glad he and his wife enjoyed the food.

" Vegetables?"

Warrick muttered in confusion. I guess Zack hasn't reported anything from his journey yet. It's not that big of an issue. I explained about the vegetables I gave to Zack for his wife.

" What about us, John?"

Aqua spoke, a little disappointed.

" I can bring you some next time I come over, but I think you'll be more interested in what I'm going to start making."

" And what might that be?"

Aqua asked, curious about what I meant. I explained about my vegetable farming in cooperation with Lily.

" Well, with that explained, I think I need to explain what's happened at Paradise since my last report. Get ready for this."

Everyone's attention gathered around me. I started by speaking about Dartz. Once I finished the report on him, Warrick spoke.

" Ah yes. Marquess Wendell... Why would he invite someone from so far away, it'll take a month to travel to Fairsmile."

" Fairsmile?"

Warrick saw my face of confusion.

" Yes, Fairsmile. It's somewhat far from Paradise, so I don't get why they'd invite you. Those lands don't interact with Paradise much, besides giving around 1 ton of grain I believe... About every 5 years to Paradise."
