Shamefully hadn't ocurred to me that Ivona really hasn't had *any* time to rest, just because her circumstances in this life are so much better than last time - and of course she hasn't, improving her life and preparing for the future are all she's been doing.
Thank you for the chapters! I love this series.
The chibi Claude is so, so cute :)
And it is also nice to get a hint that Ivona really respects princes Seherez (or whatever was her name) - she asked to be painted by her colours - I don't expect it to have anything to do with Gaspal, neither to be something completely random.
