Imagine being a hopeless romantic in a school full of hotties. 

Well you didn't have to imagine, that was your current predicament. 

You are able to recognize that your classmates are all very good looking. That's not what you're after though. 

All your life, you grew up not feeling romantic attraction towards anyone. Your friends would all get silly little crushes on people and you just... Didn't. You figured that you'd gain some kind of romantic feelings for someone someday. 

That day hasn't come yet. 

Yet you weren't alone. The green haired crest scholar, Linhardt, was in a similar position. He didn't feel any kind of attraction at all. He had found peace in the fact that he doesn't want to get married or continue his family line. And it was a big 'Fuck you' to his father who expected him to do both things. You found Lins attitude towards it all very admirable. That means you found yourself in his presence more often than not, sharing experiences about your shared lack of attraction and questioning people like Lorenz and Sylvain who needlessly flirt with anyone they lay eyes on. 

Yeah, you've got your friends and closest confidant. 

You gotta admit though, it was kinda lonely. This kind of loneliness was foreign to you. You felt like you were missing out on having a lifelong friend who wouldn't leave you no matter what. Like a roommates with benefits? Is that a weird term? You shrugged, not caring who saw. 

You were currently sitting with your bestie under your napping tree. Well, his napping tree. You found it to be a nice place to study. Your sleepy friend was currently making use of the shade. He had been asleep for who knows how long? You think he could accidentally sleep for a whole day and act like everything was normal. You were reading a book on the history of the Four Saints, recommended to you by Linhardt himself. You're not the biggest fan of history so to find yourself enraptured by the words on the page was a unique experience. 

There was a small section of the book that spoke on Saint Cichol. It spoke on how he fell in love with a beautiful woman and had a child, a daughter. Saint Cethlean. 

'So even the Saints felt this kind of attraction', you mused to yourself. You kept reading or at least tried to. Your brain couldn't stop itself from getting lost in your own thoughts. 

What is this feeling? This sort of loneliness? What in the world could you be missing? Your family? More friends? Maybe you're homesick. Maybe you miss that soup that your favorite shopkeeper would make on rainy days. Maybe you miss your baby brothers. Maybe, maybe, maybe. 

You did something you never do. You closed your eyes and started to pray. 

Goddess Sothis, I pray to you today to ask to help me define this loneliness. Find a way to soothe this aching sensation in my heart, the emptiness in my chest. Please help me understand why my heart yearns for something I do not understand. I wish to know so please help me.
