A Journey To Him

Old money dies hard. That is what they always say but no one tells you what they do to remain their status as the elite. A very known method of marrying the children of the rich to get richer is commonly used. That is what happened to Elise von Kneight and Mark Eliot of Rutherwarth from the age of five and six. A promise between fathers to sustain the hard work from the generational labour of the familys and an engagement as a contract for the promise they made. Elise and Mark are on good terms since their childhood but both of them were not fond of the idea of marriage. Elise promised herself to marry someone she really loves because of the environment she grew up in and Mark has the need to follow his fathers orders to make him proud. The Academy of Youth is a place where all the elite children study at to be ready to take over the business of the family. Elise was verry happy to hear that she got accepted at the academy. Naturally Mark was also enrolled at the academy. Since their engagement is a secret, they would like to keep it as one.

"You will not tell a living soul that we are engaged."
"Is it fine to tell if they are dead?"

What will happen at the academy? Will they come to like each other? The Journey may begin.
