Opening:[]
- (Year 680, New Era. Apple Apparel Group's branch office, Saint Cynthia City.)
- (Three jewel boxes of varying sizes sit on the desk, containing respectively a ring, a bracelet and a pair of earrings.)
- (All those accessories are shaped like butterflies, suggesting they were designed by the same person.)
- (The way they gleam brightly in the sum speaks of rarity and preciousness.)
- (But underneath their glossy appearance is something more profound——)
- (The lost stars reappeared on the lake surface. The Dwarven treasure was awakened by memory. The world is now bathed in the grace of the king.)
- Kimi: So, you've collected all thre materials for completing King Sayet's design.
- Nikki: Yes, and now all I have to do is complete the work as depicted in the design. ONly then will the ultimate truth reveal itself to me, according to King Sayet.
- Momo: But the most important component, the design, is still in Queen Elle's hands!
- Kimi: The Sayet design in discussion comes from one of the two treasure chests Elle acquired during the Nine-Day War, right?
- Nikki: Indeed.
- Momo: First of all, It's unlikely she'd give away something so important to you. And besides, Nikki, don't forget you're still on the Pigeon's wanted posters.
- Kimi: Momo is right. They're still hunting you down. You won't even make it through the Oren city gates.
- Momo: We'd be walking right into their trap if we went. I don't want to be put behind bars again!
- (The room falls into silence. Everyone is at their wit's end as to how to obtain the design from Queen Elle.)
- (After a long time, as the clouds blocking the sun slowly drifts away and sunlight reenters the room, Kimi finally breaks the silence.)
- Kimi: Perhaps Ace could help us.
- Momo: Ace? Are you saying we should ask her to steal the design for us?
- Kimi: That's not what I meant.
- Nikki: Then what do you mean?
- Kimi: Previously, Queen Elle sent the Iron Rose to find the three materials. And now you have them. That's your leverage.
- Nikki: Leverage? Are you suggesting I should negotiate with the queen?
- Momo: Whoa, hold on! Last time we ended up in the palace prison because Elle wanted Nikki to agree to her terms! And now, we're going to make the same mistake again?
- Kimi: This time it'll be different. Nikki will be the one to propose a deal, and that will place her in a position of strength.
- Nikki: I get it. Thank you, Kimi. I'll contact Ace and try to get another audience with Queen Elle.
- Momo: I sure hope she won't lock us up again...
- (There's a knock on the door. Then a professionally dressed youngster walks in.)
- Secretary: Miss Kimi, it's time to go to the venue.
- Kimi: Very well.
- Momo: Wow! This is the first time I attend a presidential campaign speech!
- Kimi: Let's go then.
- Secretary: Ladies, it's rather hot outside. To avoid heatstroke, I suggest you change into something cooler and lighter.
