Pretty (Precious's friend): I... I'm back. (shy tone)(Note – Precious calls Pretty "Ice," and Pretty calls Precious "I.")

Pretty: Chini!

Chini: Ahhh! (jumps in fear — she's an elemental bard)

Pretty: Hehehehe.

Chini: Oh, Pretty, so you came back safely from the war!

Pretty: Hm? Didn't you want me to come back safely?

Chini: That's not what I meant—

Pretty: Just kidding! Anyway, I have so much to tell you!

Chini: Pretty, listen to me first.

Pretty: Hm? Why do you look so serious all of a sudden?

Scene:Chini takes out an egg and shows it to Pretty.

Chini: This is my egg. I want you and Precious to protect it.

Pretty: I don't understand... Are you going somewhere?

Chini: ): You see, my time has come. I'm 310 years old... and in a few minutes, I'll be gone.

Pretty: ! N–No! You're joking, right?! T_+

Chini: Do I look like I'm joking?

Pretty: T_T ...! Ah... I know, he'll do something!

Chini: Precious? He's just like you — a child. What could he possibly do?

Pretty: B–But...

Chini: Shhh... Let me go peacefully now. Please take care of my child.

Pretty: T_T ... (nods silently)

Pretty: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! NOOOOOOO!!!! T_T
