[It might be her target. It might not be. I, the narrator, have not seen this photo. But as the narrator, I feel the need to explain something.]

[Aravalle, Germany, is a small town in the far north of the federal state of Baden-Wurttemberg. It is a small township of considerable age, though its architecture does not largely betray this. Aravalle was rebuilt after the thirty years war; hence, Schloss Aravalle showing the signs of a late Baroque structure. As the southern half of the nation suffered more acutely than the northern, the Schloss Aravalle looks more akin to the Wurzburg Residence on a smaller scale, avoiding Rococo-esque opulence. The late date in which this building was constructed is reflected in it's contemporaries. While most of the people live in modern German houses, the other historic buildings are in the Classicism-Historicism schools; in other words, by the time they could afford to move the government from the seat of the noble families' lines, it had been a hundred years!]

[But regardless, it is a beautiful day in that well maintained garden she has a vantage point on, and the young man who may or may not be her target seems to be trying in vain to get cellphone reception. Ironic, as the modern economy of Aravalle is based heavily in the tech sector. But that's for another tag.]
