With little else to occupy her attention, Lina began sorting through the letters. Most contained invitations to banquets and balls, while others were filled with lengthy greetings and elaborate expressions of courtesy that said very little despite their many words. She decided to leave the replies to Celia, since she had neither the time nor the patience to deal with such trivialities herself.
Then she opened another letter and abruptly sat up straight.
"Huh?"
Unlike the others, this letter contained only a single short sentence.
Please don't close the windows tonight. Wait for me.
