Third person POV
A bit later, by noon, Chivo and his family have lunch at the castle with Basilio and some of his subordinates. Basilio had found out about Valeria and Aldona's 8th birthday being a few days away. "Wow, Aldona-chan, your mom is coming home, and your birthday is a few days away?"
"Yes," replied Aldona back brightly like a child, "and I am excited for mommy to come home soon."
"Eldest sister was always away from home for work," Chivo added.
"Oh, okay," Basilio replied, before looking at Aldona, "advanced happy birthday for you, Aldona."
"Thanks!" Aldona happily responded back.
"Thanks for you support for her, Basilio-kun," Agnieszka said to Basilio gratefully.
"Yes, you're welcome," Basilio happily replied.
Basilio's subordinates were happy for Aldona and her upcoming birthday.
Meanwhile, a steam train had arrived at Fresa de Ard, and a tall woman, dressed in a warrior outfit and holding a big battle axe, got off and proceeded to leave the station, heading towards Fresa de Ard's. Along the way, she saw how nostalgic it was after a long time of being away as a warrior, hinting that she might have lived there for a long time. This woman was Aldona's mother and the eldest sister of Chivo and Agnieszka. And then, she went to her family home, only to see that no one was home yet. Assuming that they went out shopping for food, she went to a tavern to eat a quick and hearty meal after hours of being on a train, planning to search for them later.
