We members of the expedition go even on horseback under the cloudless sunshine along a wide road with nothing.
... I can't believe I woke up so early in the morning. The soldiers are well awake, too, Prince Viktor and the elders. How rude of you to say so, Elder.
"Kid, learn from this expedition."
Suddenly, Victor turns to me.
"What?
"Saana."
Hey, and I go in my heart. I haven't heard about the expedition in the first place. I just know it's dangerous.
What a vague expedition.
"The little one really cares about the prince."
I laugh bitterly at Captain Marius' words.
"No, he didn't want to get involved with me at first."
"Well, you..."
He shut his mouth over a few words.
"If that's what you said, tell me."
"You don't normally like it. I can't believe I'm gonna take care of a heretic child someday."
"I'm not the heretic."
That's how I whined in a small voice against Captain Marius's loud voice. He didn't seem to hear me.
The real heretic is Mr. Liz, isn't it? I don't know if I'm as good up there as I can be.
Turn your gaze to your uncles.
I wonder what kind of conversation you're having. The three of them. It must be a deep story.
I listen to their conversation, excited by myself.
"Albert's in a bad mood right now, so you better not speak up."
"Old people will be fine early in the morning"
Kate laughs lightly at Mark's words.
As I found out yesterday, Kate is the most Frank in all of this. I'm afraid there's going to be a back for that.
And my grandfather seems the hardest.... Your father feels so calm. Parents and children don't look alike.
I'm not sure about Mark's personality, but he doesn't seem a little rough with temper, like Eric.
I was in the woods a little dim at some point as I watched them blurry as the horses rocked me.
Unlike the trees around my house, the trunks are thin and unreliable. The long dripping leaves are impressive.
If I say it's creepy, you win this forest.
"Aren't you scared?
Victor looks at me with his mouth up mean.
"Totally, rather used to it"
When I returned that in pale shape, he looked forward with a face that seemed uninteresting.
Ever since I was a little girl, I've been going back and forth through those dark, creepy woods all night. It's not like I feel scared about this.
Looking around with that in mind. Dead frogs at the roots of trees, sharp-eyed snakes on branches, insects on the ground.
Sure, if you were a regular courtier, you'd lose your hips.
... The number of insects in the forest is higher in Lavar than in Durkis. I guess bugs gather in big countries, too.
"I wonder what the hell lies ahead"
Kelles, a soldier following me, mutters to himself. I have a little anxiety about his voice.
I wonder if few humans have ever been in this forest.
"Is this forest a dangerous place?
I approached Kelles softly and whispered. I don't want Victor to understand what I don't know about this country.
"Well, Sicilin is off-limits."
"... Sitilin,... eh,... seven wheels!?
I've never heard of a seven-wheel barrier or anything like that. Why don't you put some bugs in there?
There are seven wheels in this world in the first place?
"What are you looking so surprised at? You've never heard of the dying forest before?
Look at me as Kelles suspects.
Oh, that way. I mean, you were here in the woods.
"No, it's not in anything, it is. Cicillin, I didn't know it was called."
I doubt the naming sense of the operation.
