Tell me, is the Cyclamen Circus a regular affair around here? Or have I discovered something new and uniquely horrifying?

Two somethings, really. Related, if you see a Gestral in a clown mask sniffing at monster feet, try to avoid killing him. He means well.

Usually.

Well, now you've made me curious, White Lily. You can't leave me on a cliffhanger. What changed in the Silver Kingdom?

[lilyberation]

I just... felt like I belonged. They understood me more than many others could or did. My village didn't get it. And I love my friends very much but. I don't think they understood me, either.

And then an entire kingdom did. It was a lot!

I... think I understand that. I struggled to be around people in Lumiere especially after... well, the details of that aren't important. The Gestrals, on the other hand. They're easy. Loyal. Ridiculous and impossible to understand sometimes, but they mean well.

Sometimes home finds you.

sorry for her-

[lilyberation]

This is true.

( ...

she sighs.

sometimes it finds you. but she cannot... hope it will find her again. )

never apologize, sorry for him tho

[notthislife]

It can be hard to believe. I get it.

... and sometimes it goes on too long. I know that better than most, too. But someone has to hope you'll turn out better than me, right?

[He gets it. Even if he doesn't know what she's feeling, he knows it far too well. The weight of existence was far too heavy sometimes.]

terrible, these two

[lilyberation]

I most assuredly haven't! But thank you for the kind words.
