Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 1455

Violet did not give an immediate answer.

After spending the entire night reflecting, she informed Carissa that if the marriage proposal were indeed made and her family consented, she would be willing to marry Isaac. However, as for whether she truly wanted to, she could not say, for her feelings were uncertain.

What she felt now was different from how she had once felt.

Carissa reassured her, and later that day, she set off for Meadow Ridge with Lulu. Her reasons were threefold. First, she wished to speak directly with Isaac. Second, she had not spent the New Year there for some time, and missed her mentor and other guild members.

Third, Winona had also returned to Meadow Ridge, and Carissa wanted to inquire whether any news from the Southern Frontier had reached her. She feared that Winona might have learned something troubling but didn't dare share it with her. If she asked her directly in person, she would be able to tell if her senior guild member was lying.

Upon Carissa's return to Meadow Ridge, both Adrian and Everett were startled to see Lulu with her. Immediately fearing that something had gone awry, they insisted on speaking with her in private.

The sight of their concerned expressions tugged at Carissa's heart, resulting in her fighting back tears. In the capital, she had to always maintain her composure. But in front of her mentor and the members of the Pathfinders Guild, she would always feel like a child.

Wiping her eyes, she teasingly said, "I just thought it had been too long since I was last here, so I wanted to visit the two of you. I also wanted to catch up with my senior guild members."

Everett sharply retorted, "We've only just returned from the capital and you're talking about catching up? You've come back with Lulu, but why didn't you bring those other troublemakers? What if something had happened on the road? Who would have protected you? Just because you think you're capable now, does that mean you're invincible? You're far from it.

"You're not thinking about how many people you've offended, or whether the remaining rebels have been dealt with. You're not even considering that your husband is at war, and how many people want to use you to threaten him..."

Adrian raised his hand in an attempt to calm him. "Alright, that's enough. Stop with the scolding."

While scolding was necessary, the focus of the topic could still be shifted.
