Life goes on. Dinner with Mr. Sialtas approaches, and she tries not to overthink it. It's not a big deal, or at least it shouldn't be.

The day of the dinner arrives, and she tells herself this over and over, like a mantra. It's not a big deal, it shouldn't be a big deal, don't overthink it. No one will expect her to marry someone that she's never spoken to. That's just absurd. Maybe if she were nobility, or royalty, and the pairing were arranged by family that she trusted, but not if she's managing it herself. No one will blame her if they don't work out as a match. No one that she cares about the opinion of, anyway. Her parents want her to be happy, and if she expects to be unhappy with someone, then that'll be that. The size of his estate be damned.

Still, it wouldn't do for her to not dress the part. If she puts in a bit of effort, she can look nice. She puts in a not insubstantial amount of effort. Her sweet old lady serving as a chaperone is very complimentary and impressed.

She shows up to dinner.
