A Day later the war had already started, but during the week there was only one report sent to the palace thus far and It told that Cyno had pushed the Army of Snezhnaya back, in which this lessened your Father's stress about the current situation, and it told of the progress but other than that nothing else had been heard but the kingdom was able to take a breath of relief 

you were sitting on the steps to the lotus pond, sitting as you watched the water ripple and the wind blew the blue petals softly, it was at high noon right now so the day was kind of hot but you went to escape the heat at the pond, just then you were brought out of your daze upon hearing the sounds of bracelets, looking to see Nisha with a piece of parchment In her hand 

"My lady, this was sent from the battle front It's from his highness to you"

you stood up and came to receive It, "thank you"

you took the letter and opened It up as you started and it read:

My Love, I wished to write you sooner but with the war right now I haven't had a spare moment, but I write this to tell you how much I miss you, though It's only been a week so far but still I miss you very much, I hope you're well and I hope things In the kingdom are also well, we managed to push Prince Ajax and his army back but they've been relentless In their attacks, I was worried about the soldiers for the moment but they've held their own this entire time and they've covered each other's backs as well as mine, I'm grateful, but sometimes I have felt the heaviness of this responsibility that Father In law's given to me, and it would be a lie to say that I didn't have doubts, but no matter what I will hold to my promises and continue fighting for Sumeru with all my might, Love I don't have much longer to continue writing this but know that I love you, and I will continue doing my duty to protect the kingdom but more Importantly you, please take care of yourself

-Cyno

you closed your eyes and whispered, "I love you too"

you then smiled softly before folding it back up, and you held onto it as you started walking away from the lotus pond In the direction of your bedroom, and once you were there you walked to place the letter down next to the rose that he'd given you that was still vibrant, you then sat down on the cushioned seat as you then had an Idea and you called for Nisha to come

and she soon came into your room, "you called my lady?"

 "mhm, could you fetch me a piece of parchment please"

she bowed, "right away"

Nisha left your room once more as you waited, and you didn't need to think about what you were going to write as It was already In your heart, you were going to send a response to him 

Nisha soon returned with the paper, and you got a writing untensil as you started writing down a heartfelt response to his letter and you told him to take care of himself, and not to worry about you too much as everything was alright In the kingdom, and you ended It with your love and missing him just as he does you, you smiled warmly as you then folded It up

"Nisha, when you have the time make sure It gets delivered to him"

she smiled, "right away my lady, you miss the prince very much don't you"

"yes, but he's away doing what he has to do and I'd never hold him back from that"

Nisha noticed a look of longing on your face, but she was soon brought out of her thoughts upon hearing a rapping on your bedroom door and she went to go see

"Oh, Grand Princess"

Candace smiled, "is my little sister in here?"

Nisha nodded and stepped aside as Candace made her way into your room, just as you turned to see that It was her and you started to smile "Candace"

you stood up and walked over to greet her as you hugged, she then tossed her ponytail back over her shoulder as she guided you to sit down on your bed

"I didn't announce to Mother and Father that I'd be visiting, but I won't be staying long this time"

you nodded, "I see, are things alright with you In the Kingdom of Natlan,"

Candace sighed, "They are, but I had to come here upon hearing of the war declaration, I was worried about you and our parents, I hear The General is fighting valiantly at the border"

you spun your bracelets, "he is, and you know he sent me a letter today"

"Really? what did It say"

you smiled, "only that he misses me, and he hopes that all is well here but he also mentioned how he's grateful to his comrades"

Candace smiled with a nod, "I see, that's good to hear"

you brought your legs up onto the bed, "Candace, I should've told you sooner but something happened the other day, I was In the palace temple praying for his and the armies safety and when I finished, a Padisarah appeared In front of me"

her Heterchorimic eyes widened, "Truly? then...It must be a sigh from Lesser Lord Kusanali"

 you smiled, "and It must mean my words were heard, I feel more relieved and I have hope that everything will be alright"

Candace touched your shoulder, "That's good, though I still can't believe the Kingdom of Snezhnaya has done this"

you looked down, "I feel the same, thought they've long been at odds against us but I never thought their Queen would be so heartless...does she not even care how many will lose their lives or loved ones?"

Candace sighed, "The Queen of Snezhnaya cares not for others, though many of her followers say she's a benevolent ruler but that's a blatant lie"

she then stood up, "shall we go for a walk, speaking about this is making me rather angry"

you smiled with a nod, before standing up "I understand, Elder sister how are you by the way in terms of your pregnancy"

Candace touched her stomach, "I'm well, it's only my third month so far but I'm not showing half of the symptoms, though this morning I did feel rather nauseous"

you then started out of your bedroom and walked with Candace around the palace for a bit, catching up and she even told you more about the Kingdom of Natlan.
