Milim: "mmh..."

Milim wakes up in her room. She's on her queen-sized light pink bed. She rolls over and covers her head with her dark blue pillow. The bed reminded Milim or her mother and father, who had been murdered not too long ago by people who were upset with Veldanava's preference to his family and the Nascar Kingdom.

The event would've severely traumatised Milim further if she was awake when it happened. Veldanava and Lucia made sure to go to the part of the castle furthest from Milim's room. However, they were intercepted by their assassins at the throne room.

Milim, being quite wise for her age, understood what happened, and tried to not get overly attached to her anger, since her parents' murderers have all been killed by her uncle Rudra, who was just as, or even more distraught than herself.

Milim had Gaia as her best friend. Gaia was given to her by her father, intended to be a companion. She suspects that he knew about his shortcomings and wanted to leave something behind for her.

Gaia: *yawn~*

Milim: "Gaia?"

Gaia: "Yeah, Milim-oneesan?"

Milim: "o-oneesan?!"

Milim gasps, jumping out of bed, shocked and staring at the person who was sleeping in her bed. He has a light complexion, wore simple clothing, has dark blue hair of medium length similar to Veldanava, and is shorter than Milim reaching to just her shoulders. He yawns again lazily and stretches his arms up into the air, clearly unfazed by Milim's sudden reaction. He jumps out of bed and starts poking Milim.

Gaia: "Hey, are you okay?"

Their matching blue eyes met each other. Milim stutters as she responds.

Milim: "u-uh... are you Gaia?"

Gaia: "Yep! That's me!"

*Bang!*

Ramiris: "Milim?! Milim?! Is everything alright in here?!"

Rain: "Yeah! I heard you shout so I came as fast as possible!"

Milim: "E-Everything's fine! Gaia's just turned into a human, I think."

Ramiris: "Oh wow! I guess that 'Guy' really can be useful for something."

Rain: "I know right? He gives me pocket money from time to time, but it's not enough so I steal-ahem- borrow some from Misery."

Ramiris: "I think she's called 'Misery' because of everything you do to her-"

Rain: "So that's Gaia, right?"

Milim: "Yea-"

Gaia: "Yeah! I'm Gaia! Hello aunt Rain!"

Rain: "Hmmm... Could you call me onee-san?"

Gaia: "Okay, Rain onee-san!"

Rain: "Kawaii! Teehee!"

Ramiris: "Oh quit it Rain, it won't make you any younger than you already are."

Rain: "Tch!! Well I don't think Milim-chan minds-"

Milim: "No, I do mind! Gaia is my little brother so I'm the only one he's calling nee-san!"

""...""

Gaia: "Milim nee-san don't get too mad."

Milim: "Don't worry Gaia-kun it's fine, you're my only little brother, you know?"
