Even though winter hasn't ended yet and the cold wind still blows occasionally outside, the sunlight these days is exceptionally bright.
On clear days, Patty's favorite thing to do is to stay where the sunshine can reach, listening to the maid tell her stories, or watching those interesting shows on the Magic Web, in a rare sense of physical relief.
There's a lot of interesting things on the Magic Web, stories from afar, unheard-of knowledge, and magical inventions, and recently, the clever people of Cecil Castle have created something called "Magic Shadow Drama."
It's a play performed on the Magic Web Terminal, and more and more people have been talking about it lately.
Patty has never been to the theater — just when she was old enough to go with her parents, she lost the chance for outings, but she has seen plays; her mother once invited the best theater troupe nearby to perform a classic comedy in the castle, although Patty can no longer remember what the play was about.
