### Summary
The narrative currently centers on Artezia Rosan’s profound internal struggle with PTSD and survivor's guilt following recent traumatic events. She incorrectly blames herself for a security breach at the Ebron castle, viewing her presence as the sole variable that enabled the attack. This self-deprecating mindset is deeply entangled with her insecurity over the "saintess," Lisia, whom Artezia believes was Cedric's true partner in the original timeline. Despite Cedric's reassurances, Artezia is unable to overcome the guilt of having "stolen" Lisia's place, preventing her from communicating her fears openly. Reader insights clarify that Cedric's past proposal to Lisia was a protective, non-romantic gesture to shield the newly-declared Saintess from political exploitation. In the present, Lisia is portrayed as a capable and admired figure, with many hoping for a strong friendship to form between the two women. Amidst her turmoil, Artezia finds rare moments of comfort, notably in a heartfelt hug with her loyal maid, Alice, and in the unwavering, perceptive support of Cedric, who understands her fragility despite her formidable intellect. While their bond deepens, with Cedric providing a safe space for her vulnerability, Artezia's inability to reconcile with her past remains a significant barrier to their relationship and her own healing, even as new threats are foreshadowed by the introduction of a significant firearm.
