    Summary

    The war with the Galra Empire wages on across the continent. The Druids and their dark magic threaten everything, especially the small territory of Marmora, right on the border between Altea and the Empire. In order to secure support for his country, Keith is sent to live as a ward of King Alfor of Altea in the royal palace.
    The palace is a far cry from home, and Keith cannot get used to the different structure of the Altean day, doesn't like the softness of his mattress, and he cannot find wherever it is he is supposed to do his laundry.
    Whilst spying on the palace guard during training, he meets the Captain of the King's guard, falls off a roof, and steals a very large and powerful horse. Making up for this somehow includes falling in love with the Captain and attending thaumaturgy lessons.

    Keith grows a flower for Shiro, and that sets the two of them on a course to change the world; not just for each other, but everyone else as well.
