Fair Countess Linda

Grayscale illustration of a finely-dressed young woman sitting on a table in front of an old woman sitting on a chair knitting.

Agatha works on her knitting, inviting Countess Linda to sit and rest. Agatha asks if Linda enjoys the valley and questions whether the walk from Master Michael’s Inn was long, to which Linda replies that it was, but none are prettier.
