[Aww yes storytime!!! ]

Okay, so centuries ago, the kingdom of Corona- that's where I'm from- had a king named Herz Der Sonne. Corona was was war with another kingdom, Saporia. Their leader was a fierce warrior woman named General Shampanier. The war was long and bitter. It lasted years.

Herz Der Sonne built a network of secret tunnels under Corona, to allow supplies and troops to travel in secret. He kept the maps for these inside his journal- this exact book! But he also started to develop feelings for General Shampanier- and he wrote those feelings in his journal, too. On one fateful day, the king and the general were in a bitter sword fight...when she saw the love confession in the journals pages. She realised she felt the same way about him. And so they decided to call an end to the war, get married and join the kingdoms together.

Every year since, Corona has a celebration called "The Day of Hearts" where we celebrate the ending of the war and also... well, the rest is kinda like Valentine's Day. Couples sign their name in the book as a symbol of their love for each other on the day- in memory of the fact love ended the war.


[Saporia is kind of a mess with some people definitely fighting against that, but Hermes doesn't need to know about the terrorists right now. They can just enjoy the nice story instead! ]
