Kiera's residence, Ivory Estate, was located in the palace district where the highest-ranking nobles resided. The common folk referred to it as Noble Street, and it was only about three or four miles from Royal Street.
Ivory Estate was also conveniently close to Hell Monarch Estate, just a short distance away on foot. Of course, Helen had no intention of walking. They all traveled by carriage.
Ivory Estate was already occupied by staff sent by the queen dowager, tasked with maintaining the property, cleaning, and tending the garden. A number of flower trees had already been planted, and potted plants adorned the grounds.
Salvador had been quite generous to Kiera. The estate was vast, with a grand and imposing front courtyard, while the rear was filled with bright and spacious rooms.
In the garden, a lake had been dug. It was surrounded by pavilions, towers, rockeries, and arched bridges, with water flowing gently throughout. The surroundings created a peaceful and serene atmosphere. The architecture here had a softer, more tranquil vibe, reminiscent of the graceful style of Ebonflow, in contrast to the rigid designs typical of the capital.
Kiera's personal courtyard was called Harmony Meadow, which had a lovely meaning. As Logan's name meant "small meadow", the courtyard's name incorporated that and symbolized the idea of the couple harmoniously supporting each other.
As Carissa and Helen entered, they found the courtyard fully furnished. There were partition screens, a large cherry wood bed, a chaise lounge draped in luxurious silks—everything one could need, and all of the highest quality.
After looking around, Helen remarked, "There's plenty of furniture already. We don't need to bring any more from her dowry."
Carissa disagreed gently, "Since it's already been cataloged, we should still bring it over. This estate is so large, there's certainly enough space to use it all."
"The items you chose for her dowry are excellent. It would be a shame to not let Kiera use them," Helen mused as she took a thoughtful turn around the courtyard. "Although, it wouldn't go to waste either way. The prince consort will occasionally stay here too, so we could always place some in his quarters."
According to Starhaven's customs, a prince consort didn't typically live with the princess and was permitted to return to his own family's residence. If the princess wanted to summon him, she would simply light a lantern and someone would be sent to fetch him.
However, given how affectionate Kiera and Logan were, it was likely that after the wedding, they would share quarters anyway. Even if they kept separate courtyards, it would probably be more for show than necessity.
"Perhaps we could prepare a small courtyard here for you. That way, you could stay for a few days when you miss Kiera," Carissa suggested.
