As Navier traversed the opulent grand hallways of the main palace, her steps exuding an air of regality, she found herself unexpectedly encountering Emperor Sovieshu.

He leaned against the lavish walls, his countenance marred by a furrowed brow as his intense gaze locked onto her form.

A quizzical expression danced across Navier's features as she arched an elegant eyebrow, silently inviting him to divulge the nature of his inquiry.

"Your majesty?" she queried, her voice carrying a hint of curiosity.

Sovieshu, his demeanor firm and resolute, straightened his posture and closed the distance between them, his gaze piercing hers with unwavering intensity.

"Empress," he addressed her with solemnity, emphasizing the weight of their roles and the significance of their encounter.

In the wake of his austere question, Navier maintained her composure, her face a tranquil mask of poise.

She refused to be unsettled by the gravity in Sovieshu's expression as she calmly provided her response.

"I visited the academy with Emperor Claude."
