Church of Windenburg, Winter 1842.

Despite Jeanne’s near death, the wedding between August Cushing and Evangeline Boneville took place in the first weeks of the winter of the same year. Both engaged decided to marry in the Church of Windenburg to prevent the people of Brindleton from talking about their wedding.

Something that couldn't avoid controversy was the bride’s appearance, Evangeline had decided to wear a long, thin veil that would fall elegantly along with a white dress.

The white dress was very improper and irreverent for a bride who was previously a widow, because it was her second marriage was expected to be at least a beige color, but for Evangeline this was indifferent

The new marriage looked strong and united as I walked to the door of the church, it was like a kind of protection from the doubtful, judgmental and compassionate looks of both family and friends.

Jacques stood out among his cousins' harsh looks at his daughter, did not understand how this was happening, but hoped she would know.

The Cushing Residence, Fall 1841.

It was early morning when Amber went to check if her mother needed anything before bed, when she found her resting on the sheets of her bed with her totally pale skin in candlelight.

She was the first to encounter Jeanne’s death and could not utter any expression other than the bewilderment and sadness of her face.

Redwood Manor, Bedlington.

Despite the late hours of the night, August ran to the Redwood residence to report what had happened. Everyone in Redwood Manor was alarmed when they heard August screaming in the distance, everyone was getting ready to sleep.

The news of Jeanne shocked the whole family. Violet and Jacques were going through the death of another of their brothers, the life they knew suddenly began to fade

Cushing Wedding Lunch. Redwood Manor, Bedlington 1842.

Jacques and Rose decided to organize a lunch in commemoration of their daughter’s wedding with the Cushing family to celebrate the bonds between the two families.

Despite having a celebratory purpose, the entire evening was very austere and silent, August’s family decided not to attend the ceremony as much as lunch.

Evangeline watched her new husband alone at the other end of the table with no one around. She didn’t think this was a good way to start a marriage.

Wolfsbane Manor, 1937. Forgotten Hollow.

The Straud family arranged a reception for Madeleine and Edgar’s wedding party. The entire family was reunited by the young couple with upper-class people like the Cattson and the governess, due to Vladislaus' influences as the last living founder of Forgotten Hollow.

The young married men were coming down the main staircase, showing themselves in society for the first time as Lord and Lady Straud, happy, young, passionate and with high hopes for a full life together.

Edgar looked like another man, he’s never been so affectionate towards anyone, if Percy had done the same, he would have been the target of his mockery when they were teenagers. But Madeleine had that power in her, almost as if it were a passionate countenance.

Blosomshild, North Willow Creek, 1837.

The Redwood family was on a trip to Willow Creek North to stay in ne Blossomshild while completing the reconstruction of Redwood Manor

Rose was fascinated with returning to her youth home, she had not returned since she had married Jacques.

Jacques was fascinated by the landscape and how there were things so different since he had gone that New Year’s Eve in 1811. Mordecai was explaining them how much the power of his hectares had grown over the years.

George was listening to Mordecai too, but he was more dedicated to making sure the trip didn’t hurt Wendla, as long trips made her nauseous

Redwood Manor, Bedlington, Fall 1841.

The Redwood family’s winter dinner was an occasion to reunite the family after the holidays and to give warmth in this cold fall, it was also an occasion for close relatives to see little John who had already turned four years.

There were many people close to the family, including the Whinskerspark Redwood. Although they spread the word around, the Cushing decided it was a good idea to forget about inheritance issues for a while.

Rose and Wendla welcomed Evangeline, who apologized for arriving late.

Evie was dressed in a beautiful brown evening dress with yellow flowers, which accompanied her flowers from the headdress and the pearl necklace that her mother gave her in her engagement to Francis.

It was the first time Evie hadn’t dressed in mourning for a formal dinner.

It was inevitable to watch the young widow with her new, less ominous appearance, Lord August agreed with this, as he kept his eye on Evie from the other side of the room.

The great gallery of paintings reigned over the chimney of the main room, the outstanding work of all was the portrait of Rosemary Redwood.

Jacques had managed to capture the beauty and youth of his mother when he was a child, Jeanne watched beside the Frascinates the image of a woman who managed to overcome adversities and founded her solid lineage for her children.

Imperial Villa of Bloshomshild, North Willow Creek, 1838.

The Redwoods stayed all winter with Mordecai and Charlotte in the family villa, their free time strolling in the garden while the children ran in the snow.

Mordecai and Jacques were still working on the restoration of the family paintings, so they were both painting all day long all over the residence, this reminded Rose that she had tried to keep them apart.

Winterfest and New Year’s dinners passed quietly, Charlotte wasn't a fan of the winter celebrations. Mordecai and Jacques seemed equally entertained without worrying about the little enthusiasm of their hostess, they talked and told each other anecdotes.

Rose felt helpless to see her brother’s relationship with her husband flourish as it had when he caught them in his studio, but she no longer cared, she just hoped they wouldn’t do it so brazenly in front of her
