The person who had delivered the gift box to Lyra was the servant whom Auntie had arranged to organize and bring groceries to her new home.
"It seems like an important item."
When Lyra looked at him curiously, the man hesitated to explain further.
"It was in the box," he added softly. "The box for the kitchen, right next to the grocery crate."
"Ah…" Lyra's eyes widened in sudden realization. It was Auntie Jamie who had sent it.
Lyra simply accepted the package and nodded without thanking him. After the servant finished carrying her remaining luggage to the room and departed, Lyra immediately hid the box somewhere completely out of sight.
She had ignored it at first, utterly unable to look at a token from the very person that had killed her only remaining family. Then the chaos with Elara had happened, and she had forgotten about the box's existence entirely.
