>>>in the carriage

As Jong-min and Lysandra were engrossed in their heartfelt discussion, their moment was abruptly interrupted by a peculiar noise— "groot!"Turning their attention towards the source of the sound, they were surprised to see a small creature made entirely of wood, no bigger than a newborn child. Its expression seemed to convey a sense of dissatisfaction, and it sent what appeared to be a pouty face towards Lysandra.

"Well, hello there," she greeted the wooden creature with a curious smile, extending her hand in a friendly gesture.
"Are you sad that I didn't talk to you, little one? fufufu,
don't be sad, okay? if I didn't like you, I would've left you in the forest long ago. " she gave the little creature a toothy smile.

The creature responded with another "groot!" Before reaching out its tiny wooden arms towards Lysandra, seemingly seeking attention and recognition. With a soft chuckle, Lysandra gently picked up the creature, cradling it in her arms with a tender affection.

Jong-min watched in fascination as Lysandra interacted with the mysterious wooden creature, a sense of wonder filling the air.

Sensing Jong-min's gaze upon them, Lysandra smiled warmly and began her introduction. "This," she gestured to the wooden creature nestled in her arms, "is Groovey, my very first golem creation."

With a fond chuckle, she continued, "Groovey may not be the brightest or the strongest, but he's certainly full of charm." As if on cue, the wooden creature let out a soft, endearing noise, as if in agreement with her words.

"He's capable of handling simple tasks," Lysandra explained, her tone affectionate, "although I must admit, he's still a bit too weak to take on anything too important just yet."

Her gaze softened as she looked down at Groovey, a sense of pride and fondness evident in her eyes. "But we're learning and growing together," she added with determination, "and I'm committed to improving my skills to create an even better version in the future."

Jong-min nodded in understanding, impressed by Lysandra's dedication to her craft. As they continued their journey, he couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for both Lysandra and her adorable creation, Groovey.

With a swift and practiced hand motion, Lysandra transformed the wooden creature, Groovey, into a sturdy and manly bracelet. She offered it to Jong-min with a smile, her eyes shining with sincerity.

"This bracelet holds a special enchantment," she explained, her voice soft yet filled with conviction. "With it, I'll be able to track your location at any time. If you ever find yourself in need of help, just activate the charm, and I'll come to your aid."

Jong-min accepted the bracelet with gratitude, his heart touched by Lysandra's thoughtfulness and concern for his well-being. "Thank you, my love," he said, his voice filled with warmth. "I'll treasure it always."

Lysandra nodded, her smile widening. "And there's more," she added, a mischievous twinkle in her eye. "If you ever need Groovey to assist you in any way, all you have to do is say his name and the command you wish to give him. He'll be ready to serve."

Jong-min marveled at the bracelet in his hand, its significance not lost on him.

>>>>>time skip: after the long journey
>>>>location: at the Kim estate's gate

At the grand gates of the Kim's estate, a stately woman in her forties stood with an air of regal dignity, flanked by a retinue of about twenty servants. Though weariness etched lines on her face from the long wait, she refused the counsel of her maids to retire to the comforts of the mansion. Instead, she remained resolute in her decision to personally welcome her son home, wanting him to feel the warmth of his family's embrace upon his return.
