Lutz gets into an argument with his parents and runs away from home, furious that they refuse to accept him becoming a merchant. Their dispute quickly reaches the Gilberta Company, and only when Myne and the High Priest arrange a discussion between the involved parties is the matter peacefully resolved.

This is a biblio-fantasy by book lovers, for book lovers!

Despite having recently been separated from her lower city friends, Rozemyne has no time to grieve. Her first year at the Royal Academy has ended, summer approaches, and there's much for her to do. She strives to continue making books as per her promise to Lutz, but the spring feast also sees the announcement of her engagement to Wilfried—one of many political maneuvers to resist influence from the higher-ranking duchies.

Prosperous be the duchy! This is the newest volume of this biblio-fantasy, now fantastically celebrating spring!
