571 A Day in the Blue Moon ⑥ - Confessions of the Eldest

Name:Isekai Ryouridou Author:Eda
The people who were raising their shaky voices get a lot quieter.

Looking around at that figure, Refraia said in a calm voice.

"Oh, you're handing out sweets here. If you like, can I have it, too?

"Yeah, go ahead. Pick up your favorite treat."

The inevitable answer was Thur-din.

In this, Tour-Din is one of the few people who has known Refraia for a long time.

"Thank you," Refraia said, approaching the table.

"Oh, this black thing is a treat that was served at a previous dinner party. It was amazingly delicious."

"Oh, thank you. This is sweet, so you might want to eat it from other sweets."

"You must be absolutely right about that. Let's start with this confection."

Saying so, Refraia looked around for a moment.

"I don't see any plates or spoons, but should I eat this by hand?

"Oh, but I'm sorry! If necessary, I will borrow it from the Lew family…"

"No, it doesn't extend to that. Follow the woodland routine."

Refraia left her face and pinched the roll cake with her thin fingertips.

"Even I, at home, pinch the fuwano sweets as they are. Just because you're noble doesn't mean everyone enjoys being classy."

So Refraia took the roll cake.

"Yeah, it's delicious. And when Princess Odifia calls you to the Tea Party, I'm going to ask you to invite me too."

"Oh, really? I'd love it if you could eat my sweets."

Tour-Din grinned and watched her like that with an impressive face.

No, if you notice, everyone on the spot is watching you two interact. They don't even know how to treat nobles and the like, so I guess they're surprised at Tool-Din being able to deal with them very naturally.

"Huh. Isn't the princess acting more grand? You just said you wanted to visit a forest settlement."

and Georg-Zaza, not afraid for a completely different reason than Tour-Din, said so in a voice containing laughter.

Refraia, looking back at you, opens her eyes gently, "Oh..."

"George-Zaza, what are you doing in a place like that?

"I was just looking at my family's work. Din and Lid are Zaza's family."

"Oh I see...... Tour-din can make such a stunning treat, and you said you were doing great at the Martial Arts in Genos, and that Zaza's blood clan has unbeatable power over Luu's blood clan"

To the words of Lifreia, Georg-Zaza snorted "Hmm".

"Me and others were to be defeated on the way, so nothing was praised. Praise be to Sin-Lu there for winning through to the end"

Refraia moved her gaze casually before shivering her shoulders tingly.

Sin-Luu, who was eating a chatch cake next to me, stares at Refraia and Sanjula with a terribly quiet look. And instead of Sin-Luu like that, Lara-Luu was glowing blue eyes at the feeling of having to calm down a bit.

"I remember you. You must have exchanged words during last year's tea party, Sin-Lu."

"Oh. I remember clearly too"

Refraia stepped out to Sin-Luu, whisking her shaped eyebrows a lot bitterly.

"I was hoping to have another word with you. Hey, Sin-Lu. If you're still angry with Sanjula..."

"The feeling of anger, I don't hold it. Even when we exchanged words before, I thought we told them that there was no such thing as a habit of treating sinners as redeemed men by the woods."

"But you also said you would never forget Sanjula's betrayal. But it was all my fault that Sanjula had sinned like that."

"Refraia," Sanjula raised her voice low.

There is also a slightly bitter look on that side.

"It's my sin, it's mine. Asta and the people by the woods, betrayed, it's my sin. Instead, no one can."

"That's not true. If I hadn't even given the order to take Asta back to the mansion..."

When Refraia tried to argue with a noisy voice, Sin-Luu raised his voice, "Wait."

"What the hell are you arguing about? Reconciliation has already been fulfilled, so you shouldn't have to worry about anything."

"But because you were exposed to Asta in front of you, you were supposed to learn more profound anger than anyone else, right? No matter how much you settle, that anger won't go away easily."

"It wasn't me who learned deeper anger than anyone else, it was Ai-Fa, who was Asta's family. I just couldn't protect Asta because I was deeply angry with myself."

Its eye-fa watches this interaction with a calm eye as usual.

In an unbeatable and sinister voice, Sin-Lew said even more.

"I couldn't forgive myself for being weak because I gave in to Sanjula there. To that end, I worked myself out in a madness of death. … so I'm thinking that Sanjula's presence was also a test given to me"

"But..."

"Refraia, didn't you survive the trial of losing your father, too, to get who you are now? If that's the case, then you can understand my words. You may not feel the misfortune or disaster you once had as a joy, but if you think it was a necessary test for you... can you also take it with another feeling, not anger or sadness"

With that said, Sin-Lu was slightly relieved of his mouth.

"It's been a long time since then, so I can think like that. So I hope that you, too, will not forget to regret your past mistakes and make the right bond with the people of the woods."

"Yes... but that girl next to you is staring at us with the same eyes we see in our enemies."

When Sin-Luu looked at him wonderfully, Lara-Luu said, "Hmm!" and turned that way.

Sin-Lu is slightly reddish around his eyes as he lifts his long, black-brown forehead.

"Lara-Lew... I'm sure he's just worried that I might disturb his mind again. It's been a long time since I've been exposed."

"Okay. Thank you, Sin-Lu. I, Sanjula, want to live with your words in this breast for the rest of my life."

Refraia lowered her head deeply, shaking her chestnut hair.

Sanjula also closes her eyelids and feels it.

Giza-Lou, who refrained behind the noose, seemed to stare at Sin-Lu with a very satisfying face.

"Oh, boy. Besides the feast, it's an innocent thing. Guests of Lou's blood, enjoy the feast without worrying."

and the cheerful voice of George-Zaza finally led to the removal of the heavier air that was stuck on the spot as well.

People are putting their hands on the confectionery in a way that they have regained their minds. Sin-Luu nodded Lara-Luu and disappeared into the crowd.

"It's good to have Sanjula and Sin-Lu in Refraia to open their minds to each other"

When I snuck in, Refraia still looked back at me with a much less energetic eye.

"We knew he was Luu's blood, so we should have exchanged words before the feast. You've annoyed everyone."

"Nothing's bothering you. Instead, it would have helped deepen the bond."

Lifreia then suddenly let her lips crouch with an age-appropriate young look.

"Hey, you're not going to break that polite tone when you're like this? Without the eyes of other aristocrats, I don't think we need to imitate them."

"Huh? That may be true... but Refraia is no longer the head of the Count Turan family..."

"But most of the lords by the woods don't change their tone with nobles. That's the way you talk, it feels so good."

Indeed, I was never uncomfortable with the way I spoke to Refraia, only twelve years old.

"Well, I'll let you talk normally... but I figured I'd let you use polite language when you have the eyes of other nobles"

"Yeah. That's sticky, that's fine. In such a setting, I must behave like the head of the Count's house."

That being said, Refraia narrowed her eyes satisfactorily.

Then I turn my gaze to Ai-Fa, who refrains from doing so like a shadow.

"Oh, you...... are you mad at Sanjula? Then again, I'd like to apologize..."

"After a settlement, no need to apologize or anything. If you live right, you will no longer complain."

When Ai-Fa responded with majesty, Refraia laid her eyes down, "Thank you". Sanjula, too, puts her hands on her chest, looking out for her.

"Nevertheless, the Refraiers hadn't circled the square yet, had they? I thought you were returning to your original seat."

"'Cause if you go back so soon, it's boring, isn't it? Once you calm down, you won't be able to move again for a while."

Refraia, who raised her face, regained her temperament and said so.

"After this, we're going to walk as slowly as possible. If you don't speak to a lot of people by yourself, it's not worth it."

"Oh well. Nice try."

I said that from the bottom of my heart, but Refraia was taking a small sigh of sigh.

"But I guess I'm only in everyone's way. Earlier, I gave apologies to people like Michelle and Barsha and Zida... but how much I bowed my head, it's not like the fate of screwing me back."

"Did you also exchange words with Michelles?... but no one would have blamed Leflaia?

"That's why I can't stay extra. I'd rather be thrown in stone than distracted."

"It wasn't Leflaia who caused Michelle and the Red Beard Party disaster, so there's no way you can imitate that. Michelles don't blame Leflaia because Leflaia isn't guilty."

I let him say so, looking straight back at my eyes in the light hue of Refraia.

"I think you're ready for Refraia, but you shouldn't have to elbow that much. It's a feast of rapport, so if you enjoy it as a guest, that's enough."

"If I only enjoyed myself with all the trouble around me, nothing would be the same as before."

Refraia insisted so forcefully.

This fortitude is the Refraia itself I know.

And I even felt nostalgic, and I said, "That's not true."

"If it had been a previous Refraia, you would never have imitated me like this, would you? Isn't that enough of a change?"

"But..."

"At least I was just so happy that Refraia told me she wanted to attend a feast by the woods. Everyone else should think so more or less."

Refraia looked back at me with a bit of a decent face.

Then smile instead of "thank you".

It was probably the first time that Refraia had shown me a clear smile so far.

"Though I can't be that optimistic... but I'm just so glad to have you say it that way"

"Yeah. We're the ones spinning bad edges on each other, but please, from now on, stay close."

"Absolutely.... but it would be so unacceptable for me to visit the woodland like this, so come out to Castle Town again from you, Asta"

"Yeah, sure."

Refraia nodded one with the same smile, flicking her coat and turning back to the confectionery table.

"Well, I'll get you some sweets in advance. Your sweets look delicious, too."

"Yes. Please eat, Refraia. It's a treat that the women of the Lou family put more on their arms."

Side by side the interaction between Tari-Lou and Refraia smiling calmly, we also decided to leave the scene.

Within so many steps, Ai-Fa gets a sigh of words.

"Nevertheless, don't let more and more time pass without much food in your mouth. I would have liked to have spoken to the Lady Ziva before the dance was curved, if I could."

"Well, shall I speak up first? We won't be out of food for a while yet."

But it doesn't taste good to go back the way we came, so we decided to circle the square looking at what was going on as we hadn't explored it yet.

By which side Michelle and Bozzle are talking about whether Mim is helping or not, and we can also see Zida and Barsha. None of it was unclear how he exchanged words with Refraia, nor how the dark shadows were falling.

Elsewhere, we can all look forward to having fun.

Schmiral and Vina-Lou were still spending time together, and we also saw Ji-Mayam and Dim-Rutim juggling their drinks. On the occasion of the last harvest festival, did the two names deepen their rapprochement?

That's how I discovered a bunch of people making rings away from the hustle and bustle as I walked through the fervour of the feast.

Yumi and Ben, as well as Joo-Run and Chim-Sudra.

He's sitting in front of a branch house, and Yumi and Ben look like he's leaning out a liquor glass. It wasn't a strange atmosphere for once, but the combination caught my interest.

"Sorry, Ai-Fa. I hadn't said hello to Joo-Run or Chim-Sudra yet, so I was wondering if I could give you a shout?

You said, "Never mind," so I approached you with a quick leg.

Yumi, who was sitting in a position pointing this way, said, "Ah, it's Asta and Ai-Fa!" and give a cheerful voice.

Then Joo-Run looked back in a jittery manner.

Ai-fa glances sharply at the behavior.

"Hey Joo-Run and Chim-Sudra, here you are. Are you enjoying the feast?

Chim-Sudra nodded back "um" with the usual deposition.

but Joo-Run is still letting his eyes swim with most. In proportion to that, Ai-Fa's eyesight finally grew sharper.

"Sounds fun. What the hell were you talking about?

"Um, this Joo-Run was listening to your people's sex stories! No, sometimes even by the woods, the story hangs out like that!

Both Yumi and Ben are laughing fun.

When the feast costume Ai-Fa began to unleash her temper as a hunter, Joo-Lan rose up mundane.

"Yes, no, it's not! Listen to me, Ai-Fa!

"... what the hell difference does it make?

"Jou-Ran doesn't talk about being a disgrace to people. I was just exposing myself to shame."

And, Chim-Sudra spoke while sitting down.

Yumi also laughs "yes".

"No, Nanaka, this guy looked unwell, so he called from me. So, I told her that I was worried about her, so I told her I'd go talk to her."

"Uh-huh. But if you spread the sex story around, it could also be a nuisance for them. So I advised him not to reveal his name."

That's what I said. When Chim-Sudra shrugged her shoulder, Joo-Run also said, "Yes, it is!," he raised his voice.

"I just made my mood talk so hard that I don't think it would bother anyone! Swear to Mother Forest, that's true!

Ai-Fa still looks like she can't fit in, and she's making fun of Joo-Run.

Ben opened his mouth too, seemingly unaware of the sharpness of that eye.

"Hang on, it's best to have someone in love with you. Besides, when there's no gap you're wearing with compassion, it sucks already!

"That's it, but it's the only way! If you want to put their well-being first, you have to pull yourself back! You've chosen your own path. You're a fine man!

To see how Ben and Yumi are doing, it certainly doesn't seem to convey that the opponent is me and Ai-Fa. I secretly felt my face turn red and even thanked Chim-Sudra.

"But well, we talk about that all the time in town! By the woods, don't you even bother with sex too much?

"I don't know there isn't, but who I'm going to give you a wedding with is the guide to the woods. It may be unusual to worry like Joo-Run afterwards because if you know they have someone to think about, you just have to break your feelings on the spot"

When Chim-Sudra answered that, Yumi said, "Heh!," he shouted.

"I knew people by the woods were clean! Normally, I think it's more disturbing to anyone! At least not in Inn Town!

"Is that so? I decided to pull myself out, but my thoughts don't seem to make sense."

When Joo-Run turned to his soothing eyes, Yumi pulled that arm with a laugh.

"What worries me, even if it doesn't make sense, is that you're a human being! Come on, you shouldn't be making me feel any worse! So-yu's will only lighten your heart for what you've told people!

"Yes. Thank you."

Joo-Run sat down on the spot.

As Ai-Fa takes a deep sigh, Chim-Sudra complains with her eyes, "Don't guide me". I'm sure Joo-Lan is trying to spot us and Yun-Sudra so they don't reveal their names.

"... let Chim-Sudra handle this place and let's head over to Grandma Ziva"

Me and I-Fa were supposed to leave the place, with greetings there.

That's how I left, and I-Fa whispered to me in an indignant manner.

"That man named Joo-Run is a stranger to the woodland lesson he makes. What the hell would it be like to tell a story like this to someone else?

"Yeah. But well, if this makes Joo-Run any easier, I guess it's okay. I knew Joo-Run had some kind of human sensibility in town."

Even if Joo-Lan reveals his mood by the woods, he just gets reprimanded for being bad at you. But if it were Yumi or Ben, I'm sure he'd have sympathy for Joo-Run and heal that feeling. As far as I'm concerned, that's just how I expected it.

After all that noise, I can finally see the main house.

On the rug, Grandma Ziva stayed seated for a while. Though the surrounding humans have been replaced, Donda-Lou and Dari-Sauti also remained on the spot, now joined there by Birdu-Fou and the eldest brothers of Din and Lid.

"Ziva woman, if you like, why don't you join us around the square?

When Ai-Fa spoke, Grandma Ziva looked back in wonder.

"I'll take the square...? But I'm a blunt walker, and my body is so small that it's hard for people to see me, so I guess I'm going to be a nuisance to everyone..."

"If you like, I'll take charge of your back. If Ziva shows up, we'll all be delighted."

Grandma Ziva held her mouth for a while and then snapped, "That's right..."

"Then let me sweeten you to the words of Ai-Fa... Donda, let me leave you for a moment..."

Donda-Lou had a silent nod.

With Grandma Ziva on her back, Ai-Fa stands up. "Heh heh..." Granny Ziba chuckled as she placed her hand on Ai-Fa's shoulder.

"I kind of feel like I'm back in my toddler... when I was weaker, Darm and Rudd carried me like this... because back then, I didn't even feel like enjoying it..."

"Mm-hmm. Me too, it's fun."

As he walked in, Ai-Fa also smiled.

The people in the square are cheerfully welcoming. Grandma Ziva seemed very happy in return.

"Thanks hey i-fa...... I was a little blurry so you worried me......?

"Um. Well, come on, I was wondering. When we were talking in the main bedroom, he seemed very healthy."

"Oh, at that time, I didn't enjoy talking about Tia... I couldn't really change my mind when the feast started..."

Grandma Ziva's voice was small, but I could hear her walking right next door with the ai-fa carrying it, without any problems.

"So the Ziva woman was blurry like that, thinking about the Red People and so on at the feast? That's a lot... Ziva ladies. That's a lot of work."

"Yeah, maybe so... hey, I was just messing up my mind... but I think it's the only thing that messed up my mind..."

As she walked, Ai-Fa leaned her neck in a curse.

"Was the Ziva woman disturbing her mind? I've been listening to Tia for a long time, but I don't think it was as disturbing as it sounds."

"That's right... so I guess I'm the only one around the woods who messes with my heart..."

Ai-Fa frowned slightly.

"What the hell is wrong with you? If the Ziva woman is worried about something, I want Asta and I to hear it."

"I'm not worried about anything... I'm just worried about you..."

"What kind of story is that?

Grandma Ziva shuts her mouth again.

Then I can softly relieve my mouth.

"Right... I was going to ask Donda to listen to me when it comes to tomorrow, so why don't I tell Ai-Fa and Asta here... because this is how you worried about me..."

"Mm-hmm. If it's about Tia, we're not irrelevant either. Did he say something to disturb the mind of the Ziva woman?

"No, it's not... this is something I've been thinking about for a long time now, before I heard about it... that girl was brought to Luu's settlement, from the very first day..."

That was supposed to be the story the day after Tia was picked up by Birdu-Fow and others.

Then already, only six days have passed. Since then, Grandma Ziva has been disturbing her mind, etc., something I never imagined at all.

"That girl would have such a beautiful look...? The moment I was stared at with those strange red eyes, I remembered..."

"Remember? What the hell do you remember?

"That's... about my family, my family, my countrymen..."

That's what Grandma Ziva said, staring into the void with a clear eye.

"That girl's eyes looked just like mine... I was still hunting black monkeys in the black forest of Jagal, with the eyes of my countrymen back then..."

"What does that... mean?

Ey-Fa's voice was shaking slightly.

And I'm also remembering the strange highs in my chest. I felt a little scared to hear the rest of the words.

"That girl... the red folk of Morga has been spending hundreds of years in the mountains of Morga without touching the outside world...? When we lived in the Black Forest, we put ourselves in that kind of life... we spinning yarns with grass leaves and tree skins, sharply sharpening stone knives, living only in the forest, giving our souls back to the forest..."

"Oh...... so you mean it was the same eye? Well, that's no wonder."

"Yeah... but that wasn't all we talked about... the way she thought, the way she felt, the way she lived in the mountains of Morga... it was just like us..."

A cold sensation crept up my spine.

Grandma Ziva laughs gently at me like that.

"Hey Asta... When I invited the people of town to the feast before, there were some delightful people called Travel Artists... remember the song they heard at the feast back then...?

"Yes. It's the song" Black King and White Queen, "right? It is the legend of Sim's clan, which has the same name as the Gazette family, which was the chieftaincy of the forest."

"Yeah...... so what the hell was that 'clan of white queens' that that Gaze clan met in the Black Forest...?

"It was... after all, wasn't it a Jagal clan? The people of the south have white skin. The people of the woods are also born of the blood of Sim and Jagal."

"Yeah, I thought so too... but then how did we end up spending hundreds of years unconscious that we were the sons of Jagal, the Southern god...? The Gaze clan abandoned their homeland, so I guess that's when they also abandoned the Oriental god Sim... if that's how they connected the people of Jagal to the blood, didn't they try to live as sons of Jagal...?

I couldn't answer that.

Ai-Fa also remains silent.

Grandma Ziva kept spinning her words quietly.

"I am... I thought that" The White Queen's Clan "might be a clan divided from the red folk of Morga... that girl was dyeing her skin red, but there might be white skin hidden underneath it... Or maybe" The White Queen's Clan "was painting her skin white..."

"Well, that's but... isn't that too much of a clap-free story? No matter how much, I can't believe the 'White Queen's Clan' and the Red People were one and the same clan..."

"But the Red People would have talked about the women holding the chief...?" The White Queen's Clan "was also about the women being kings... and" The White Queen's Clan "was a very small body..."

"Mi, the people of the south are as small as the people of the west. From the tribe of Gaze, the people of the east, they would have looked much smaller."

"Yeah, you can't even think about it that way... but 'The Clan of the White Queens' should have been told that they don't have a god with a name... after all, that's just like the Red People, don't you think...?

That was, indeed, supposed to be true.

In the song "The Black King and the White Queen" sung by the bard Niya, the word Jagal did not appear even a word. That song was carved into my chest with strange freshness, so I kept that in mind, too.

"The Clan of the White Queen" did not have a god with a name, just called the woods Mother - that's how Niya spoke.

I don't have a god with a name. Does that mean that he worshipped a god without a name?

If so - it will increasingly coincide with Tia's talk, the Red People's learning.

"Of course, there's nothing to prove... but Camua-Josh said there are some sanctuaries in this world like Mount Morga... right, Ai-Fa...?

"... um. So the Lady Ziva thought that the black forest of Jagal was one of the sanctuaries, and that the sanctuary might be inhabited by the blood of the Red People."

Walking slowly, Ai-Fa was answering that way.

On that back, Grandma Ziva nods quietly.

"Well, it's a story that I can't even give an answer to... it's just a sure story that Tia looks just like my countrymen... my parents, my brothers, my family, my other family's countrymen... back then, we all looked like Tia, and thought like Tia... that's what's changed little by little since we moved to Morga Forest..."

…………

"At first, I hated it so much... it seemed like the family and compatriots I loved would turn into completely different people... but someday they wouldn't care about that either... I lived in the same place, so they changed just like everyone else, and I guess that's taken for granted..."

"Ziva, it's..."

"I'm sure that's because we interacted with people in town... we never tried to open our hearts to people in town, but we had to go down to town to buy aria and poitan... and we knew something convenient like a steel knife or a pot of iron... and what to wear, because we weren't allowed to make it out of grass, so we had to buy it in town anyway..."

…………

"If we get too deeply involved with the people in town, we're going to be corrupt... I wonder if that kind of forestside learning was born because we must have learned to fear that we were changing... because everything changed from those days when we were only thinking about ourselves in the woods..."

"So, Lady Ziva... you think it's right to have a Red People?

At that time, a light whistle sounded in the square.

It is not the sound of a grass whistle, but the tone of a firmer instrument.

Looking around, Levi and Cargo were blowing that whistle. They were bringing in their own transverse whistles to reveal themselves with dance restrictions.

Young men and women advance in their outfits surrounding the ritual fire.

I'm sure where we don't know, the beginning of the dance was told. People were beginning to take steps pleasantly to match the whistle sounds.

A cheerful melody that sounds familiar gently blows too much inside the square.

This is only a song played after "The Black King and the White Queen" - "The Feast of Vaillas".

The men by the woods are pounding firewood and giva bones. Some also layered the melodies of the grass whistle on the melodies of the horizontal whistle.

Watching such a sight from afar, Ai-Fa whispered again in an uneasy voice.

"Ziva woman, I want you to answer me. Have we stepped off the road? Should we, like the Red People, have lived without dealing with the people of the outside world......?

"What are you talking about, Ey-fa..." Grandma Ziba said with a small laugh.

"Think about it." The Clan of the White Queen "is already hundreds of years old, connected with the clan of Gaze, the people of the east...? At that point, we are already in contact with the outside world... if we were the red people of Morga Mountain, we would never have imitated that..."

"Hmmm... that may be..."

"Oh, I'm sure so... I don't know why the" White Queen's Clan "embraced the Gazette clan... I don't know if we know that anymore... but then the Gazette clan would have abandoned the Oriental God and the" White Queen's Clan "would have abandoned the Great God without a name... because if we hadn't, we wouldn't have forgotten the God we worship..."

Grandma Ziva's voice was very gentle.

It seems as if that gentle voice will melt loosely the cold feeling that was hanging around my heart.

"So, the people of the woods, who only mother the woods, were born... I don't think that's how it should be... because if I think about it, Tsuji will fit into all things... so maybe we will be so distracted by the presence of Tia... the Red People must have been who we are..."

While stating so, Grandma Ziva stroked Ai-Fa's golden brown hair.

Ai-fa is kind of a naughty toddler face, and she puts herself at his fingertips.

"Then again, does the Ziva woman think that welcome is the right way to go with the Red People? Doesn't the Lady Ziva envy the red people who live only in the mountains of Morga, out of contact with the outside world?

"That's right... if it was me a while ago, I'd have thought about it that way... if it was me being weak before I got back on my feet with Asta's cooking..."

Thus Grandma Ziva pointed more to the ritual fire with her fingertips, which were stroking Ai-Fa's hair.

"But you see... we got such a happy life...? How can you be so happy that you need to envy people... because if you hadn't interacted with people in the outside world, we wouldn't have been able to achieve such happiness... I think this would have been the best, right path..."

People were dancing with great pleasure.

I can see that the people by the woods and the people of the town enjoy it wholeheartedly.

Siri-Low had also been dragged out on the spot by Yumi's hands.

Right next to it, you can even see Sheila-Lou and Dalm-Lou, Ben and Terrier-Mass, and Joo-Run.

Rud-Luu had his hands pulled from left to right by Limi-Luu and Tara.

Dan-Rutim does not even take steps, but walks out of the way as he shakes up the earthen bottle of fruit liquor.

Usually only unmarried women dance, but that kind of bondage doesn't even exist at a feast of rapprochement. If you notice, toddlers, older humans, etc. were also part of that circle.

Refraia and Sanjula take graceful steps just like the ball there.

Tour-Din was just walking embarrassed as the Lid ladies drew her hand. Right behind it, Zaza's sister and brother and Rem-Dom are also following.

I can also see Mim and Zida. I can also see Din and Lid's eldest brother. Mida-Lou was moving forward with it as he shouldered Zwei-Rutim, who was whispering something.

"All humans living on this continent have their own gods... because even the Red People were talking about worshipping the Great God without a name... in which we were born between the 'White Queen's Clan' and the Gazette Clan, while losing the god to worship, we just used the Mother Forest as a base of our hearts..."

Grandma Ziva lays down her words quietly.

"We were finally able to welcome Western gods as gods... I'm sure that's something to live for... after hundreds of years, we were finally free from the sins and suffering of abandoning God..."

That's how Grandma Ziva laughed low as she cheeked on Ai-Fa's golden brown hair.

"Well, it's all my imagination... no one will ever know what the truth was like... all I know is that we're happy right now..."

With a very gentle voice, Grandma Ziva said so.

I can see that the last grasp left in my chest will melt away with it.

Ai-Fa was also powerful, responding to "um".

"I, too, think the same. The people of the woods must have chosen the right path."

That's how I-Fa looked back at me with a glowing smile.

"Asta, shall we join that circle?"

"Yeah, fine. It's unusual for Ey-Fa to say that from herself."

"I'm carrying a Ziva lady. You dance as you please."

"No, just let me add you to that ring, I'm happy enough"
