After the award ceremony, Mark and Cecilia were headed back to Czanch.

Mark had a discussion with Waylen earlier.

With everything taken into consideration, Mark consented to allow Edwin to stay with the Fowlers and finish his study in Duefron.

Edwin would return to Czanch for winter and summer vacations, as well as spending one weekend a month there regularly.

Although Cecilia was hesitant to part with Edwin, she respected his decision.
