As for the capital, its changes occurred too imperceptibly for the permanent local residents to be objectively tracked. Elrina only noticed, for obvious reasons, that she visited Imperial Street, where her estate used to be located, less and less often. Now, she exchanged her numerous servants, carriage, and huge mansion for a small, comfortable apartment in one of the capital's districts. Her relations with representatives of the aristocracy also partially deteriorated, and therefore in the aforementioned area she only occasionally used the services provided by Aquilon.
In recent years, Elrina's affairs and activities were, willingly or unwillingly, mostly connected with the Center of the city. In addition to the "Reimford" building, of which she was a shareholder, she was sometimes offered state work in the Imperial Palace, which could be considered a great success, given the not-so-favorable relations between her and Sonata. One way or another, now Elrina decided to visit this particular place, the residence of the main official faction of Reima.
