"I SAW a crow earlier, Princess Neoma."
Neoma froze when she heard what Lewis said.
Right now, they were alone in the carriage that would bring her to Illumina Plaza where the Grand Yule Dance would commence.
Emperor Nikolai already went ahead of her with Sir Glenn and Count Kyle Sprouse to begin the closing ceremony with a speech. Her presence wasn't needed because it was the emperor's duty to give an opening remark and not hers.
Her job as the "Crown Prince" was to lead the dance later.
For that reason, she wasn't allowed to go to the plaza with Hanna– her "date" and dance partner for tonight. Apparently, the gentlemen would have to wait for the ladies as a part of the ritual. Thus, she needed to arrive in the venue earlier than Hanna.
And she was glad that it turned out that way so that she could have this kind of conversation with Lewis.
"A crow, huh?" Neoma said after pausing for a while. "Tell me more about it, Lewis."
