- It's a beautiful metaphor, but honestly, I didn't think about it that way. After all, Aconia is Aconia, and Naria is Naria; who knows to whom her soul belonged in the past. Wait, wait... What's that unpopular item you gave to Krag? What interesting thing was it?

- You know what... I think that our example might positively influence her overall perception of the world and human relationships in particular, don't you think? In any case, you've turned my inner world upside down.

The gnome silently and gratefully bowed in response.

- Well, are we finally going to the crater? - he says to the manager-director and looks at the sun (or rather, what's left of it). - We're barely making it, but we're making it.

On the way to the new center, Aiyano and Lord each receive a ✹.
The remaining eight ✹ from the painting with Sonata go to: Azarine, Kayase, Gaheris, Erefir (✹✹), Ahuli, Riikumere, Cleone, and Iraole.
Somewhere off-screen, she asks Ahuri for forgiveness, deciding that she can make a good gift for her at another time - because they are always together.

- Really? And what did you talk about? Are you being too harsh? What conclusion did you come to?

- He's trying to find out if I'm "worthy" of you, - explained Amamius.
