Eleanor knew the ladies who had sent her letters wanted to cso they could curry favor with the queen

dowager. While she felt a surge of irritation over this, she couldn't refuse them.

After all, she had connections with these noble ladies, it wouldn't be wise to offend them, especially since Yuvan

had just returned to the capital.

Moreover, she needed them to contend with Carissa’s plan on the fifteenth of October. She only deliberated for a

short tbefore inviting them all over

The royal chancellor's wife, Mildred, was the first to arrive. She was accompanied by her granddaughter,

Rosalind. Eleanor explained the situation and mentioned that Victoria had sent food offerings, which prompted

the concubines in the palace to do the same. At the stime, many noble ladies also expressed their desire to

join in the event.

“That's fine. They can cas long as they have good intentions,” Mildred replied with a warm smile.

Having been a devout religious believer for many years, Mildred had a compassionate heart. While she

occasionally attended banquets like the prminister's wife, Natalie, Mildred’s true passion lay in the annual

Emberfest Festival.

She only cto pray for the departed souls and learn more about the religion's sacred teachings from the high

priests. In the past years, she had never brought Rosalind along. However, her granddaughter had insisted on

accompanying her this year.

Mildred knew Rosalind wasn’t particularly devout, but she appreciated her granddaughter’s understanding

nature and respect for others’ beliefs. It warmed Mildred’s heart that Rosalind was willing to spend the night by

her side.

Candles had been set up on the altar outside the main hall, and a raised platform for people to pray on was

ready.

“Has Reverend Zane arrived?” Mildred asked.

“He's already here,” Eleanor replied. “We're preparing the food offerings now. The priests had a long journey and

must be tired, so we arranged for them to rest for a while before the ceremony begins tonight.

“In that case, let's continue copying scriptures. I've already done many copies, but the more, the better,” Mildred

suggested.

Eleanor considered sending someone to inquire about the situation outside, but then received word that Natalie

had also arrived. Since Mildred had already instructed her staff to prepare the writing supplies, Eleanor decided

against it.

Not long after Natalie arrived, the matriarchs of the Lloyd and Lewis families also arrived. Each brought their

younger relatives along.

The matriarch of the Lloyd family, Irene, was over seventy but still had a rosy complexion and moved with grace.

She turned to Eleanor and said, “This is my granddaughter-in-law, Nadine Langley. She suffered a miscarriage a

few months ago, so she cwiththis year to pray for speace of mind.”

Eleanor recognized Nadine as the wife of the top scholar in the national examination after Salvador

ascended the throne, Justin Lloyd.

With a sympathetic gaze, Eleanor said, “If there's a bond between mother and child, he will surely return to you

in time. Don’t grieve. Taking care of your health is what truly matters.”

Nadine lowered her gaze and softly said, “Thank you for your kind words, Your Highness.

“Come, let's copy scriptures together. Later, we'll have svegetarian food. We'll be starting the praying

session in the evening.”

“Alright.”

The main hall was set up as it had been in previous years, with low cherry wood tables and a row of cushions in

front of them. They would sit cross-legged on the cushions to copy the scriptures and later recite them while

seated the sway.

noble ladies arrived, including Gemma, Molly, and Fiona.

Those attending for the first tthought it would be a more casual affair, and they greeted each other with

pleasantries as they arrived.

Molly was especially enthusiastic. She was eager to meet more of the capital's elite women and tried to

ingratiate herself with everyone.

Natalie furrowed her brows. “We've gathered for an important task today, so let's skip the small talk. We're here

to copy scriptures. If anyone is hungry, feel free to have svegetarian food first. If you're not writing, please

don’t disturb others.”

Her words left Molly embarrassed and a bit irritated. “It’s just a simple greeting. There's no need to make a big

deal out of it, Mrs. Murray.”

“What are you talking about? Why are we here today? Have you brought scriptures that you've copied? If you did

a lot of copies, | wouldn't say anything about it.

Molly's expression darkened. She hadn't prepared any copied scriptures.

Eleanor watched from the side, furious as she realized Molly hadn't bothered to copy any scriptures. She

had notified Molly beforehand and urged her to prepare. Instead of focusing on this fundamental task, the

woman seemed more interested in exchanging pleasantries.

What was the point of that?

What a useless woman!
