It was their second day at Irithel's home. The commodities there weren't that bad for the two Leonins as they were used to this sort of lifestyle. However Odette, with her recent loss didn't do that well.

They were seated at the intricately-carved table, as their host was conjuring up a delicious meal for breakfast. Neatly-sliced pieces of chicken and lettuce soared across the crude metal pan above the firewood stove. Its aroma itself was delectable.

"That smells great!"

"Yup, I can't wait."

With one last flip, Irithel parted said dish onto fine ceramic plates and handed them over to her guests.

"Here, one for you, and one for you. Where's Odette?"

"In the room. Now let's dig in!" Nana beamed, matching ceramic utensils in hand.

She nodded and proceeded to walk to the guest bedroom. The princess was there, silently weeping. She placed her plate on the nightstand, and sat beside her.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing. My eyes are just sweating."

"You know, Odette, when a girl says 'nothing' it means the complete opposite. What's bothering you, for real?"

"Don't tell the kids. I don't want to bother them, they don't even have parents and they're stuck in a world like this."

"My lips are sealed!"

"I was stupid. My lover is gone, and I told him off too. And I almost dropped his memento in a well."

"That sounds pretty serious."

"Because it is serious."

"Well, everything happens for a reason."

"Like what? For me to become a horrible person?"

"No, maybe you could still save him."

"I haven't thought of that before...."
