*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' ''-''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Now, that we've satisfied your curiosity, it's my turn.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Vera. Who are you?''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Huh? W, what do you mean?''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I was wondering... At first I thought you were a high-class lady...''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''But things didn't add up. You have rough hands, you're not a picky eater, and you haven't complained once about sleeping outside.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''In fact, I'd say Mathi is more lady-like with his refusal to touch wild animals.''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''It's called common sense! Do you know how many diseases a wild creature could carry?!''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Case in point. You, on the other hand, were fine grabbing and playing with it!''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''And I thought it was curious you knew about libra herbs when even magicians rarely know about it.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Well... Poisons are scary. Isn't it natural... to react that way?''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''... This one flower is enough to pay for the entire carriage raide from Sander to Hamel.''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''What? It's that expensive?''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Why would I make such a big deal finding them if it didn't cost anything?''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Anyway, people don't usually consider the potential of them consuming such an expensive poison.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''You're right. That does seem strange.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Then do you give? How about an apology for lying?''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''I never lied. I merely avoided the truth.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''You slippery fox.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Hehe... Let me introduce myself properly.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Hello. My name is Vera Miriam Velder.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''I am descended from the Velder royal line... ...and at the moment, next in line for the throne... I believe.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Oh... Uh, you're a bigger fish than I thought.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''I apologize for hiding my identity. I never wanted my status, and you seemed like the kind of person who doesn't care about these kind of things...''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Oh? You don't like being a princess? That sounds pretty entitled to me.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Huhu... It was because I was a princess that I was given the option to taking the slumber weed or heading to Fluone.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''... I lived away from the kingdom for a long time. I was young when I left, so I don't have many fond memories there.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Even when I was born, there were rumors of upheaval and rebellions. It was very tense.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''I was so far down the line of succession, and received a threat like that...''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''I gave up my right to the throne, leaving the kingdom and living in peace.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Hehe, you won't guess it, but I'm a pretty good hunter! Earlier, when we were a capturing live creature, I couldn't make use of my skill.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Why are you next in line if you gave up your right?''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Officially... Hm?!''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''What is it?''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Something moved in the bushes. It's very close.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I heard it, too. Mathi, what about protection spells?''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''I got them. Including distraction and animal-repelling charms.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''... Everyone, lower your voice. Get your weapons ready, I'll go back to look.''
*''(RUSTLE-)''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''So? Did you find anything?''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Wild animals and monsters. The ones we fought against earlier. They're all headed down the mountain...''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''This looks serious. We might have to be on the move all night long.''

*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''The way they're headed down in groups look like they're marching.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''How can this be? Those animals don't form packs. Those over there are natural enemies... And there are demons in the mix as well!''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''They're waling weirdly as well. They're swaying... I think there's something wrong.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''What do we do if they discover our camping site...?''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''They won't be able to see us, and they can't hear us either, even if they come closer.''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''With the repelling charm, they should avoid coming this way all together...''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''You noticed? They're too close. They didn't find us yet, but they're ignoring the effects of the repelling charm.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''What do we do? There was a village at the bottom of the mountain.''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''That's right... If we leave them be, they'll be heading straight to the village. We have to stop them.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''... I disagree. We should leave the monsters and head up.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''What? But the village...''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''Lithia... This is serious. It's even more important than reporting monsters' location.''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''If we look the other way to keep ourselves safe, someone is going to get hurt.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''You seem to think I'm heartless or something... But surely people living down there can handle this much monsters.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Rather than worrying about that, I think we should worry about something else.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Repelling charms create instinctive repulsion for creatures with low intelligence.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''The feeling that something seems dangerous, or wanting to go somewhere else because it makes you uneasy... It deals with those senses that's directly connected to their survival.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''But for some reason, these creatures are ignoring their base instincts to pass by our camping site.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Am I the only one who thinks something worse might happen if we don't find the root cause of it?''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''......!''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Whatever it is, is still in progress. If we want to solve the problem, we need to get rid of the cause.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''That's why we need to go up. Any objections?''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Any idiot who wants to split up to warn the village is going to get a smack on the head.''
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''... We know how dangerous the mountains can get at night.''
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Excellent judgment, Lithia. Let's go at once.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''They're ignoring the repelling charm, but other defense spells are functioning properly. Grab your weapon, but leave your stuff.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''We're going to stay low, and head to where these monsters are coming from. Let's be careful.''
