Although they couldn't have been more different from one another, the small brothers never got into a fight when they were younger. Following a period of 12 years, the male only family that resided in the Sternberg fortress came to an end. When Werner was extended an invitation to attend the funeral feast of the bronze of Rudesheim after the untimely passing of his wife, the deceased was left with the responsibility of raising their one and only child.

However, Conrad took the initiative and went with Verner, despite the fact that Verner had prohibited his successor. From moving further. Will I see you again? Angela inquired of Conrad before to his departure. Indeed, he said when he was asked whether she would wait for him, he was the one who responded in response to her inquiry, she said. And you will keep your heart free for me.
