Young Ruan, the little lord of House Marcellion, has never had an easy childhood. With his older brother constantly feigning illness, the burden of the harsh heir’s training falls squarely on his small shoulders. One day, unable to take it any longer, Ruan dashes out of the mansion and loses himself in the forest. There, he stumbles upon a boy his own age. They don’t exchange names, and yet none of that seems to matter. With him, even nibbling on grass becomes an adventure. Ruan finds himself laughing, playing, and perhaps for the very first time, feeling free. Day by day, his thoughts drift further from the rigid lessons of succession and closer to the warmth of that kindhearted boy. But gossip spreads quickly, and soon even the stern Count Marcellion hears whispers of his son’s wandering heart…
 
Could a simple forest friendship change the path of an heir?
