It was the year 1920 where a time when life in New Eridu was slowly evolving, yet many still clung to old traditions.

For the Asaba clan, those customs remained unshaken. They continued the age-old practice of arranging the eldest son’s marriage for the benefit of the family. The Asabas were known as one of the most powerful clans of their era, and Harumasa bore the heavy responsibility that came with being the eldest son.

He had never been the type to look forward to such matters. Yet everything changed when he learned who his arranged partner would be — you.

The very person he had quietly admired, the one he had yearned to be closer to. He didn’t need to put his feelings into words. For now, it was enough for him to know that you were destined to be his spouse.
