- We will publish the results, but without names. The most interesting comments will be included in the magazine. So far, the government has not obliged us to disclose any information, and I really hope that this will remain the case in the future.

- I understand," she said, glancing over the questions. "Some of them - fortunately, only a few - are too personal to answer wholeheartedly, which would be inappropriate for publication... So, I'll have to skip some of them - just in case they end up in print. I hope that's not a problem," Suzui Minako added with a gesture. "You know how it sometimes happens..."

- I'm sorry. Once I get to know the people and places of Margel better, I'll be happy to answer your questions at any time.

- I'll be looking forward to your opinion, Sonata-chan," she said approvingly.

- Thank you, Aiyano! I'm very pleased. Just a moment," she said to both of them, then ran off somewhere and came back with a cake, various pastries, and much more. "Here you go, enjoy and bon appétit!

As Nadia left, she might have seen Aiyano take out a cherry-colored pencil and spin it in her hand as usual. When she returned, she saw this scene in reverse, only this time a completed questionnaire lay before her.

Yamagami Aiyano
2. What is your gender?

Priestess

8. What is your marital status?
Single.
9-A. Tell us about your favorite place in the city center.
The city center is mostly closed to the public, so let it be the Guillotine Linefront. Not because the theme of mortality or justice according to human laws worries me so much, but simply because I have had some unexpected encounters with amazing people in this place.

I am only aware of individual initiatives and cannot assess it fully. I will only say that I fully support the initiative for unborn children, because it is a grave sin.
16. Do you like living in Margel?
Life in this city, like in almost any other, is characterized by ups and downs. At the moments of the highest rise, life in Margel is able to give warm and joyful moments that are difficult to find in other places. However, I prefer not to dwell on such a statement, because life in all its facets does not fall from the sky like a brick, but depends primarily on our own efforts.
17. Do you have an idol - someone you revere or simply deeply respect?
One person once said that you shouldn't look for idols. I share this view and see no reason for it to change. As for people who inspire respect, there are many of them; anyone is capable of inspiring respect with good and decent deeds.

White, gold, pink.
19. Favorite dish in the restaurants of Margel?
Kraken. The subtext of the choice is described in item 13-A.

- Ha, thanks... Well, maybe just one slice, and that's only because I haven't eaten yet today..." She chooses the thinnest piece of the most diet-friendly-looking treat. "By the way, Nadia-san. I think you'll be pleased to know that a copy of our interview has reached its highest destination. She liked this work," Aiyano winked at the director. "And how is the guidebook coming along? Has it been printed yet? I haven't had a chance to go shopping yet.
