1. The meeting

Dear readers, I am truly grateful that you've taken the time to give my story a chance. Your interest and support mean the world to me. I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I did while writing it. If you find any mistakes or have any suggestions, please feel free to share them. Your feedback is invaluable in helping me improve my work. A special thank you goes to Kat for her invaluable assistance in translating the first version of the chapter into good English. Her help has been instrumental in making this story accessible to a wider audience. I wish you all a wonderful day, and I hope you'll join me as we delve deeper into the world of my characters and their adventures. Lots of love, Sirio
