⋆。°✩ a cosy fantasy academic romance to get us ready for Autumn ✩°。⋆
Since her mother died and her father became incapacitated, all Ingrid has wanted to do it help. Help her family put food on the table, help her friends with their woes, and help the small town community she lives in.
While studying to be a Healer, the kindly librarian mentions that there's help wanted flyers she might be interested in for short term work as autumn draws near. She waves him off, saying she hasn't got time, but the next time she's in the tavern with her friends she notices one in particular, only after running into a very disgruntled young man on her way in (on his way out).
She follows the mysterious flyer out of town to a run down estate where she is greeted by the housekeeper and introduced to Grand Dame Agnes von Marcheford, whom she will be companion to. If she agrees, she will live in the estate and be able to send a good sum of money home. However, the brooding rude man from the tavern is Agnes's nephew, Leo, and he is suspicious of Ingrid's intentions. Not one to back down from a challenge, Ingrid agrees and signs her contract on the spot.
Will Ingrid be able to complete her Healer certification and provide companionship to Agnes under the strain of Leo's ever watchful eye?
As Agnes's health worsens, will Ingrid be able to use her abilities to help her?
