Last week began with Rozemyne arranging for her retainers to come get her from the Farthest Hall. She postponed discussing her absence with the royal family until the Archduke Conference. Rozemyne discovered that she had missed the rest of the school year and the feast celebrating spring had just taken place.

Upon returning to Ehrenfest, Rozemyne meets with Sylvester to inform him how Georgine could take Ehrenfest's foundation using the temple's bible key. Sylvester believes that Georgine will make her move during Spring Prayer.

Rozemyne returns to the temple to investigate her bible's key. While there she sends Damuel and Angelica to gather information and inform the lower city guard. Matthias and Bonifatius are also sent to check for signs of activity in Gerlach. Rozemyne determines that the key to her bible is in fact Ahrensbach's bible key and was swapped when Viscountess Dahldolf invaded the temple. Rozemyne plans to immediately report her findings to Sylvester.

Will Rozemyne's retainers discover that Georgine and her allies are near by? What plans will Sylvester make to defend Ehrenfest's foundation? What else do you predict will happen this week?

I have to imagine we're going to focus on defending the temple the rest of this volume, but maybe there'll be an opportunity to have her meeting with the merchants before everything goes crazy.

I'm wondering if it's all going to be preparation or if we'll get around to some action too. I think we'll probably get to see Tuuli's reaction to Rozemyne's growth, and hopefully Rozemyne's reaction to Tuuli and Lutz's engagement.

I didn't even think about Rozemyne not yet knowing about the engagement. That is going to be interesting... assuming Tuuli will find a way to mention it, with the nobles present.
