Last Time:

"Do you want me to give you a tour of the monastery? I'll be happy to take the time out of my day to help you." Edelgard questioned while adjusting her glove. Byleth considered his options for a second, and then nodded.

The white-haired young woman then walked forward to begin Byleth's tour, with the teal-haired professor following behind. Byleth seemed to soften his eyes very slightly when he was talking to Edelgard. It didn't seem to be noticed by anyone, but only one person noticed it. The person narrowed his eyes, and then followed after the two.

That person had black hair, and lime green eyes.—————————————————————————————————————————————————

8th of the Harpstring Moon, Garreg Mach Monastery, Marketplace (Early Evening), Imperial Year 1180

Three students in the uniform of the Officer's Academy were seen walking around in the marketplace. They all appeared to be from the same house of students, since the three students were all very cordial with each other. The students, all young women, were carrying bags on their arms, shopping for whatever they needed.

The first young woman was around seventeen years of age. She was wearing a normal uniform of the Officer's Academy. The young woman had dark blue hair, with blue eyes. Beside her was another young woman that was around the same age as her.

The second young woman was also around seventeen years of age. She was wearing a silver variant of the Officer's Academy uniform. The second young woman had turquoise hair, and also had blue eyes.

The third young woman of the group was around twenty-two years of age. She was wearing one of the uniforms of the Officer's Academy, but with a personal touch. She had pinkish-blonde hair, and light purple eyes.

"Do we have everything?" The turquoise-haired young woman asked while the group was walking back to the monastery.

"We do, Blythe, don't worry." The blue-haired young woman said to Blythe. She then gestured to the pinkish-blonde haired woman to Blythe's right. "Mercedes made sure to check before we left."

"Celine's right. I checked before we began to walk back to the monastery." Mercedes agreed with Celine's statement. She then hummed quietly to herself. "How are we going to get all of this done before the end of the day tomorrow?"

"We could get the other Blue Lions involved." Blythe and Celine said at the same time. The two friends then smiled to each other. Celine added on to both her and Blythe's statement. "I could also spend time with Annette, to keep her away from the monastery until the proper time."

"I could get Dimitri and Ingrid to help me set up the decorations in the classroom once class is done." Blythe told her female best friends. The turquoise-haired young woman glanced down to her feet, and looked back up. "I can ask the Professor...still getting used to saying that...if we can use the classroom for Annette's birthday party."

"Those are good ideas." Mercedes responded. "Dedue and Ashe could probably help me in the kitchen. They could make the savory dishes, while I make my homemade sweets."

"What about Felix and Sylvain?" Celine questioned while thinking of the Fraldarius male and the Gautier heir. Blythe chuckled while saying, "Based on how the Professor ended class today, I think he has a plan for both Felix and Sylvain after class tomorrow."
