The world is an unfair and cruel place. It is cold. My heart has been broken into a thousand shards, a thousand pieces. Like a cannon hitting this fragile heart of mine. There's no warm embrace to be found. There's no justice to be seen. Only a cold, desolate land. My heart echoes with cry. My mind has been beaten with sadness upon sadness. Tears that crystallize because the cold in this world is unbearable. Unbearable. Without a warm hug, I am nothing but a cute little girl against the unjust world, so

"Warm hug needed! Emergency warm hug received!" [Diana]

"There there. My granddaughter is in Shatter, isn't she?" [Duchess of Fortress].

"I am! I can't believe they didn't let Grandma Farhah be here just because of work!" [Diana]

It's really unfair! Sure, there's no mention of Grandma Farhah being with the elven delegate! Sure, she's a priestess and is needed almost always! Sure, this is more a political issue than a religious one! All reasons are valid! Sure, she's not needed, but can't they at least give her a break! It's unfair! 

According to Sister Farhana, even Grandma Farhah feel the same. She commented how Granma Farhah and my reaction are exactly the same. Poor Grandma Farhah! Don't worry Grandma Farhah, I'll be there for you! I'll always remember you no matter how the cruel world of working adult life trying to separate us! 

According to Sister Farhana, even Grandma Farhah feels the same way. She said that Grandma Farhah and my reaction are exactly the same. Poor Grandma Farhah! Don't worry Grandma Farhah, I will be there for you! I'll always remember you, no matter how the cruel world of adult life tries to separate us! 

Here I am with Dana, Sister Khamisah, Ophelia and Farhana at Liya's mansion. It's girl talk as we just sit and have a sip of tea and eat cookies while I rant about the injustice of the current situation! Liya, Jean and the Duchess of Fortress are also there. I also invited Linda and Kat when I saw them, as we had a very important matter to discuss! One of the highest priority!

"Any progress? I won't ask Sister Jean because the obvious answer is no!" [Diana]

"HEY!" [Jean]

"Unfortunately, I'm in the same slump as our paladin." [Linda]

"I'm not in the slump!" [Jean]

"You are" [Duchess of Fortress].

The most important thing, of course, is that my two brothers love life! That's the most important thing!

"Then why am I here..." [Farhana].

"Because Grandma Farhah wanted another grandchild! So you're next after Sister Khamisah and Ophelia!" [Diana]

"Hey!" (That really hurt) [Khamisah, Ophelia]

"No! Talk about something else!" [Farhana]

"Then it's your younger brother, Elegast!" [Diana]

"That's... Actually interesting. I'm in!" (Better he gets married than me... But... What will others say then) [Farhana]

(Keep quiet... Keep quiet...) [Dana]

(Don't talk or we'll be next...) [Liya]

(Understand. My lips will be sealed during the whole talk!) [Kat]

Linda mentioned that she has tried several times to get Sas' attention. However, each of her attempts has failed so far. Trying to get Sas to do alchemy with her only resulted in a potion that made Sas vomit. Tried to go to a local play, only to tease Sas until he turned bright red in front of Amlethian. How mysterious. She teases Sas. She's almost always with Sas when they're both free, so something must be wrong, but what is it?

"Any ideas, my two soon-to-be sisters-in-law?" [Linda].

"Huh!? Well... I mean... I don't even know Sas that well yet, but based on what you said, don't you think it's just being childish? Why don't you just say that you like him? As a former royal, I would say that most of us don't get to choose our love interests very often, so my only advice is to just tell him directly" [Ophelia].

"True. I agree with Her Highness" [Duchess of Fortress].

"I see! Then do it! The worst thing Sas can say is no" [Diana].

"You really have no idea what a terrifying thing you just said, do you?" [Linda].

"Why? I mean, if he didn't like you, he would say so, but Brother Sas didn't say anything like that" [Diana].

"True... But..." [Linda]

"I see. Let me rephrase what Diana just said. He doesn't see you as a person of interest, but at the same time, he doesn't see you as someone who bothers him. Of course, your unusual approach, which usually caused him to get angry, is understandable, but knowing Sas, he will definitely say that he doesn't like it, and yet he didn't" [Khamisah].

"I'd say that's a positive sign" [Farhana].

"Interesting. Interesting indeed. From the way our current Adventure Guild master speaks, it looks like you have a chance. At least, a better chance than my daughter's love life with Sir Nar" [Duchess of Fortress].

"MOTHER!" [Jean]

The discussion is heating up! It is almost enough to make me forget the cruel, cruel reality of the world that is trying to deny me my reunion with Grandma Farhah. If that is the case, I should help them to arrange a meeting now.

"I'll do my best!" [Diana].

"It's a bit embarrassing to ask a schoolgirl for help, but since almost all the girls and ladies wanted to make our gloomy hero their husband, I will gladly take it" [Linda]

"No problem! I like it when Sister Linda and Sister Jean are the ones who will one day marry these two!" [Diana]

"Then I'll help too. We will make it a double date for my daughter Jean as well" [Duchess of Fortress].

"Deal!" [Diana]

"HEY!" [Jean]

"Miss Paladin, believe me. It's now or never" [Ophelia]

"Your Highness!?" [Jean]

"It may be rude, but I agree. As elves, there is a saying in our proverb about delaying love life. An endless road with no one beside is an eternal road of suffering. Of course, I have been delaying it myself, but I think this proverb is something that is useful to be said in this situation" (This is surprisingly fun... Always with work and work... I'm happy to be able to talk like this)[ Farhana].

"I've said it before and I'll say it again, it's not my place to interfere in my two brothers' love life, but this time I'll try my best to help as well" [Khamisah].

(Things are really heating up...) [Dana]

(Diana... Why is she so passionate when it comes to things like this) [Liya]

(Noble love lives are interesting in their own way. This talk is kind of like how those noble girls used to be in school) [Kat]
