Soon, Laura returned to the Deep Sea Palace's capital with her Maid, Kate. Both of them temporarily returned to the capital to prepare for Laura to go on a long journey to the main continent.
It's not known how long she will be gone. The whole thing might require her to stay away from the Deep Sea Palace for weeks, if not months. So, she was making at least 6 months' worth of planning and preparations so that even in her absence, her loyal maid could run everything with the help of the Istarin Empire's prime Minister.
Even though Kate was educated, it was naturally impossible for her to do everything alone. She is going to need help, and a perfect candidate to help her with any problems was the prime minister of the Dragon Monarch.
