- I wonder if it's the same thief who stole my wedding dress, or a different one! - Beata snorted angrily.

Erephir arrives at "Ideal," the event of which has already concluded.

- Ah, Tai-kun. How else was I supposed to return, by car, honking the horn all the way?.. Never mind. Is Her Majesty and Aria-dono present?

-- Penny, congratulations on your successful event today; it seems the perfect stars turned out to be among the most popular ones, which is good... Listen, can I have a word? -- and after "a word" without any particularly long mourning pauses, she tells him privately. -- A problem has come up; I'm afraid I won't be able to return the rented dress today. And although I hope to do so later, maybe I could pay you for it instead?

-- As the owner of the property, you have the right to know — it's all about theft... It wasn't stolen off me, of course; the item was in a safe while I was fighting, but the security of standard safes is clearly overrated. I don't want to just leave this alone, but obviously time will pass, and there's no way to guarantee anything, -- the redhead realized how absurd such a confession might look coming from a grandmaster of a suddenly formed order, but keeping something quiet would be even worse, alas.

-- Please forgive me for not safeguarding the valuable item, -- she added with a bow.

- Well, what can you do, all sorts of things happen in life... You should focus on securing your headquarters and your own resources right now.

- Hmm... I see. In that case, a small message needs to be delivered to the Empress. And while I'm writing it, why don't you tell me what you know about this "attack" that happened while I was away? Unfortunately, I only know the general outline. But even the thought that someone could just break in here raises questions.

— A wedding dress, seriously? Is he some kind of fetishist? — Garrett was surprised. — Or maybe he's planning to get married himself.
— Or she is, — Harold adds. — Do you happen to have any vengeful (or not) female friends?

After listening to Erephir's analysis, the brothers nod, confirming that the information has been taken into consideration.

- That sounds very strange. And is he in custody now?

-- Yes, that's right. Our level of "protection" was still calculated for a time when we weren't particularly interesting to anyone, and even then it didn't work too well. Now, -- he shrugged. Then he looked attentively at Penelope: the redhead didn't miss the remark about pockets. -- Did Amamius happen to look in here?

- I checked, but it was a while ago.
