Ten months later:

Aadalia let out a soft sigh as she looked outside. She was out on her balcony.

If a person walks outside of the palace, they will catch sight of a young woman sitting on the balcony with a peaceful expression. The sun rays caught in her magnificently thick, curly black hair. She appears almost godlike.

Aadalia has been out on her balcony for the past thirty minutes. Whenever a particularly stressful week, she would find herself drawn to the clean and refreshing air. It was a much different atmosphere in the Obelian court. In the court, one word to describe was stifling.

All those stares and greedy intentions-hidden behind the placid faces of the "nobility."

Looking out the window, she gazes out the balcony. She had a spectacular view of the garden outside the Imperial Palace. Aadalia created this garden personally at her charge two and half years ago with the permission of Claude.

The garden only contains one type of flower: lavender. No one knew the reason but Aadalia and one other person. Aadalia closed her eyes, thinking back to a specific time in the past.

Flashback to two and half years ago:

Aadalia was twenty years old. She has been Claude's concubine for about two years. She has developed admiration and feelings for him for several months as she works side by side with Emperor Claude due to her talent in creating successful alliances.

What made her fall in love? Aadalia had fallen in love with his care and how intricately he finishes his work. One may see his icy cold stare, Aadalia saw underneath through his piercing front and found sincerity in bringing prosperity to all his subjects in the Obelian Empire. He did not seek the glory and fame of being an emperor. He did not seek flattery or compliments from the nobility. He stood tall and firm to his beliefs.

She respected and valued him as the emperor. Soon, she wanted to know more about him as a person. Little by little, she grew closer to his majesty by striking small conversations and getting to know him.

It was not long before Claude ask questions about herself. Aadalia was thrilled. Soon, these conversations turn into a daily thing as they slowly become friends.

During their friendship, Aadalia realized how she truly feels for Claude.

Aadalia had never felt this strongly before a person. She was scared but at the same time happy. At that moment, Aadalia felt hope for the first time in her stay in the Obelian Empire.

Through her stay, she felt suffocated and trapped. The moment that she belongs to the empire, she lost a great deal. She lost her home and family that she will rarely or never seen. Her brother was now shackled as well. Her future seems so bleak.

However, with her newfound feelings and friendship, she knew not all hope was lost. She can still make new and happy memories.

Little did the emperor know, but he gave Aadalia hope and gave her the motivation. That motivation led to a positive change that spread to many individuals, families, and countries.

Emperor Claude had become the raindrop on a pond where many ripples spread. Just as ripples spread when a single raindrop falls into the water, the action of a single individual can affect others.

As she let her feelings blossomed, she took the time to gather her confidence to share her feelings with him. In Van Die Siel, people showed their emotions and feelings through a sincere display.
