Fun fact:

- One way to tell Cass' level of Done is by her hairdo. Cass always wears at least one braid when she's out (ever since the village kids braided her hair for the Burning Festival).

- As a consummate professional, she always wears her hair up when at work.

- Only wearing a ponytail means that Cass will not hesitate to talk down certain high-ranking military personnel she usually avoids.

- A messy ponytail with visible strands sticking out? Even Ardyn is temporarily docile in the face of her... irritation.

- (By that point, she is no longer brewing cinnamon coffee but sustaining herself on the sludge of caffeine served in the Palace.)

- (And no, no one knows why Emperor Aldercapt likes the stuff so much he is willing to subject his entire workforce to it. Judging by Prince Icarus' demeanor, the less said about it, the better.)

Fun facts about Cass:

- She is named after the cassia trees that grow in her hometown. Her family (and the extended community) never lets her forget it. Especially considering no cassia trees have bloomed since the Glacian cursed the land with eternal winter.

- Incidentally, she was 18 when winter suddenly hit the Niflheim Empire.

- Cassia has no younger siblings of her own, but is very much considered to be the Big Sister of her generation. In other words, All The Babysitting Gigs.

- With their main source of income cut off, Cassia decides to look for work in Gralea. It took her many months to convince her parents to let her go, given how widespread the 'Disappearing Sickness' was by that point.

- Nearly a year later, Cassia writes home, informing her family that she is now employed by the Chancellor himself.

- (If that was her twenty-seventh attempt or if all previous attempts included mentions of violence towards a high-ranking official...

Well, ashes tell no stories.)

- (But seriously though, if that thrice-damned Chancellor made her look for him all over the Imperial Palace like an idiot ONE MORE TIME-)

Wating for the Yellow Blooms

Meet Cassia Floreld, current (and hopefully final) PA of Chancellor Izunia.

Cassia comes from a small village from the countryside. In order to help provide for her family, she decided to try her chances in the capital. Thankfully, she managed to get an entry-level position at the government.

Unfortunately, being new means that, when the Chancellor needs a new PA (again), Cassia gets offered up as a sacrifice.

She would like it to be known that she did not sign up for this.

...

"Chancellor Izunia, will you please fire me?"

"Hmm? Did you say something?"
