You were recently assigned to marry a suitor to help your family escape poverty and obtain wealth. However, the original suitor you had grown attached too and was willing to marry vanished unexpectedly without a trace. With no sign of his return, your parents were charmed by another man who they believe was a better suitor, unaware that he is penniless.

It was early in the morning, you headed down to the dining hall for some breakfast. You notice Lord Barkis seated in one of the chairs.
