When Dion Burke had visited the small bar in the Grothem town after his carriage suffered an accident, he had cursed his luck. But who would have thought that goddess was blessing him with treasure.

A Compensation

"You look exhausted, my lady. Perhaps we end our lessons here." Earnhardt looked at her with a polite smell when she yawned without covering her mouth with her hands.

Her eyes had dark circles beneath them and she looked hazy. When it comes to politics, she had shown no progress but she had learnt the art and culture of the empire well. At least she would recognize the famous painting and popular music if played.

"You have already learnt about all the plays on display. How about you take a break and visit a theater to see one tonight. After all, play is not learned by books." he offered but she shook her head.

It was not that the idea did not tempt her. She had never been to a theater before but she had read a lot about it recently. The thought of going to one and seeing people portraying someone else would be entertaining. But then, she had to ask Dion about it.
