Last week’s conclusion of part 5 volume 7 began with a side story following Charlotte when she learns of Rozemyne’s disappearance after the Dedication Ritual. We see how Charlotte deals with an excitable Hartmut, an impatient Hirschur, Prince Sigiswald, the Ehrenfest dormitory, and the eventual return of Rozemyne.

The concluding short story is from Leonzio’s point of view after the epilogue takes place. We learn of his future plans for Letizia, his relative inexperience with magic, his desire to end the farcical relationship with Detlinde, his desire for power, plans to hunt the nobles siding with Letizia, the three main houses of Lanzenave and their princesses, future plans for Alstede, Blasius, and their daughter, the teleporter between the Lanzenave Estate and the old Adalgisa villa—now remodeled as Rozemyne’s future villa, and the relationship between Lanzenave’s King Gervasio and Raublut.

This week begins a new volume and a return to the main story. Who do you predict we will follow in the prologue? Do you think Rozemyne’s ploy to rescue Ferdinand will go as planned or will there be complications? How will Ahrensbach react to an invasion force from Dunkelfelger?

    I would expect Hannelore to at least come to the Royal Academy, to see the attackers off and be part of the pre-fight… erm I mean pre-“ditter” ritual prayer dance. ^^ But I have a feeling that Sieglinde will not allow her to join the actual attack force, or that Hannelore would want to in the first place. Now Lestilaut on the other hand… he might well want to join, to repay Detlinde for ruining his graduation Whirl. But once again, I suspect that Sieglinde will not like the idea of having both the Aub and his successor involved in the same attack and try to dissuade him.
