This time following Margaret to visit the Stonemason Guild, Shard initially thought he would have to disguise himself as a guard. But then he remembered that Margaret's visit was secret, so he could wear regular clothes.
Around one-thirty in the afternoon, Shard bid farewell to the ladies of the Opera House and boarded a carriage at the intersection to meet with Her Highness the Princess. Together, they set off for the Stonemason Guild, which was half a city away from Wilder Opera House.
Today, Her Highness the Princess had switched out of her ornate gown and removed her luxurious accessories. Over her long dress, she wore a lady's coat with a hem reaching the knees. A brooch with the Holy Emblem of the True God "Father of Peace" hung on her chest. Silver earrings adorned her ears, and her light golden hair was simply tied back, adorned only with a modest ribbon besides a cat-shaped yellow sapphire hairpin.
