This volume shifts attention to the twin sisters Laila and Leily, exploring their own arranged marriage and the challenges they face in their new household. Mori's detailed artwork brings the period setting and cultural traditions to life with remarkable precision.

With Mori’s delicate art and Abigail Blackman’s careful lettering, the duo’s playful defiance unfolds in a moment of intimate, offbeat charm. The cover, also by Mori, captures the quiet tension of anticipation with her signature elegance.

Meanwhile, Mr. Smith observes a young boy learning the careful work of butchering a sheep, a moment of quiet ritual amid the gathering anticipation.
