☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- I feel so useless, - sighed Guion, watching the flurry of activity as the gray figures bustled about behind the fourth wall before the time skip. - You're not useless. You'll be helping Astellia. She needs to be more careful now. - What makes you say that? - Well... between us girls... she's pregnant. - What... how is that possible? - Probably by Antokh. Remember that time... - Yes, I remember. But we... - He wouldn't be a good father. He wasn't a good father to his legitimate children. And he would definitely break her heart. She'd become a single mother... although she already is. But now she has us. - I'll take care of her, of course. No heavy lifting, no stress, and all that. We worked well together while waiting for you here. - Yeah, she mentioned it. - And you? Are you sure you're safe? - Don't worry. I won't go anywhere alone. Kilika and Amamius will meet and escort me; they'll be working nearby. And I'll go with Erephir or someone else to get the dress and rings. - Please be careful... - And you too. I know it's hard for you being stuck within these four walls, but your safety is the most important thing to me. - Just as yours is to me. I love you. - And I love you very much too.
