Liebe said, "Now I'm curious to know what your wish is."
Alysa said, "Well, it's in this novel."
Liebe said, "Umm… it's an erotic novel. And well… it's sad."
Alysa said, "And that's why I like it. Even though it's tragic, I like it."
Liebe said, "Now, this might be a bit much, honestly, but let's see what we can do."
Alysa said, "Honestly, it's okay even if you can't. It's just a weird idea."
Liebe said, "Let's see."
Álfrinn saw this from their ship and said, "Damn it, half-breed harebrained fool! I thought I told you to bestow her with the greatest pleasure the world has ever seen! I will murder you!"
Líni said, "Please calm down."
As Lilith reached the camp, Gelda said, "Umm, Lilith, are you okay? You look terrible."
Lilith said, "I figured it out—what we have to do."
Gelda said, "You ran through the forest even though you can fly?"
Lilith said, "Yeah, but it's a long story. I figured it out."
Gelda looked at her uniform and slowly—very, very slowly—said, "We understand you figured it out. We are proud of you."
Lilith said, "Why are you talking like that?"
Gelda slowly said, "No reason. It's just that we are so happy for you. Let's go inside your tent and talk about it."
Lilith said, "You won't believe me, but I saw them—Tenebris and Father. They talked to me. They told me what I had to do."
Eldrie said, "Umm, Vice-Captain, is it just me, or is she too far gone?"
Gelda and Eldrie looked at Lara and said, "Sadly, looks like it."
Lilith said, "Looks like what? I don't understand."
Gelda slowly said, "It's nothing, dear. Please calm down. Let's get you something to drink, and then let's talk all about it."
As they entered the tent, they put Lilith in a straitjacket. Lilith said, "What are you doing?"
Gelda said, "This is for your own good. Now tell me exactly where you hit your fragile little head and lost the last few brain cells you had left."
Lilith said, "I didn't hit my head."
Gelda said, "You literally came screaming you saw Domr and Tenebris. They have been dead for 10 years. What are you going to say next—that Tenebris hugged you and Domr forgave you?"
Lilith said, "That's exactly what happened."
Gelda said, "Exactly. And I was born yesterday. Would you like to see my pet unicorn? I have a whole herd of them outside."
As Lilith realized what it looked like to everyone—since they had the captain tied up and restrained in a straitjacket—Liebe entered, saying, "Gelda, have you seen Mother?"
Seeing the situation with Lilith in a straitjacket and everyone standing around, Liebe said, "Umm, is this a coup?"
Gelda said, "No, Lord."
As they realized how it looked—like Eldrie, Lara, and Gelda were involved in a coup—Liebe slowly said, "I definitely believe you. Why would I not believe it? I'm 100% on your side."
As he slowly left the tent, Gelda said, "That went better than expected."
As outside, Liebe screamed, "Everyone! Prepare for battle! Gelda, Eldrie, and Lara are revolting and are involved in a coup!"
As they were captured and put in straitjackets as well, all four were on the ground. Liebe said, "Now let's talk. I understand how all of you are frustrated with how things have been. Trust me, I feel the same way. But this isn't the way."
Gelda said, "Lord, trust me, we weren't involved in a coup or anything like that."
Liebe said, "I understand. I'm not accusing you of anything. Nothing at all. How have you all been feeling for the past few weeks? I mean emotionally. Have you ever felt we were doing anything that was unjust? Have you ever felt sad or frightened with what you were doing?"
Lilith whispered to Gelda, "Now you see how it feels to be on the other end of the misunderstanding."
Gelda said, "Don't make me kick you in the face."
Lilith said, "Mr. Acting Captain Liebe, Gelda is threatening me that she will kick me in the face."
Liebe said, "Is that so?" Then Gelda's legs were also tied up.
Lilith said, "Have fun."
Gelda said, "I truly, truly hate you."
Alysa said, "Why, guys? What made you go over the edge?"
Licht said, "It's quite unfortunate. We looked up to you."
Liebe said, "Calm down, Licht. Let's not assume anything. They haven't done anything yet. We all make mistakes."
As Elizabeth came in, Elizabeth said, "Why, Mother?"
Gelda said, "Do what?"
Elizabeth said, "You are literally being restrained and charged with a coup. Why, Mother? If something was wrong, you could have at least told me. You were the Captain's best friend. What made you go to the other side? You always carry a knighthood rulebook—we have more copies of the handbook in our house than even the Bible. So why?"
Gelda said, "How do I say it? We didn't plan to do anything."
Liebe said, "I understand your concerns. Did you meet anyone new in the past few months? Maybe a new friend or something? Can you give me their information? I promise to let you all go."
Eldrie said, "Lord, we didn't do anything."
Liebe said, "I understand. I trust all of you. Gelda, look—even your daughter Elizabeth is sad. What happened to lead all of you astray?"
Lara said, "Great. Now he's using our own interrogation techniques against us."
Gelda whispered to Lilith, "Once I get out of this, I will punch someone."
Lilith said, "Mr. Captain, things… Gelda is threatening me again. She says she will bite my ears off."
Liebe then also had Gelda's mouth restrained.
Elizabeth said, "Wait, if the Captain, the Vice-Captain, and all Black Rose elites are… does this mean…?"
Liebe said, "Wait, that makes me in charge. Damn. Okay then, let's just kill them and I become the captain." As he laughed a bit, Licht looked at Alysa and said, "I think you know what we have to do now."
Alysa said, "I do. Please just be gentle."
Liebe said, "Umm, what are you guys talking about?"
Licht slowly told Liebe, "Your plans are excellent. We should talk in detail."
As Liebe said, "Umm, that was a joke," Licht said, "Of course it was, my friend."
Liebe was also put in a straitjacket and placed beside them.
Lilith said, "How does it feel?"
Liebe said, "Licht, it was a joke. I didn't mean—"
Licht said, "Of course it was. Of course it was. Please, think."
Lilith said, "How does it feel to be on the other side of the misunderstanding?"
Liebe said, "Mr. Right-Hand Captain Licht, Gorilla-Man, Gelda is threatening me."
Licht said, "Seriously, Gelda? You are on timeout." As she was put in a corner, Lilith said, "I'm proud of you. At least you learned something from me."
Liebe said, "Of course. Whenever the situation gets hard, blame it on Gelda and walk away."
Lilith said, "I'm proud to call you my son."
