Queen Ashelia’s wish was to get closer to her people. To do so, she decided to organize an annual ball, the doors of the castle wide open, welcoming everyone. 

Penelo was ecstatic, she would dance all night. She spent days in the shops of the capital to find the perfect dress. She was looking for something light and simple, but also elegant. A dress that would make her feel pretty. 

Penelo really wanted to make an effort, and she was looking forward to Vaan’s reaction. As expected, Vaan was speechless, looking at her with an admiring gaze. 

The girl felt shy, and proud.
