"That idiot, I told her to wait for me in her room. Now, where did she go off to?" Saltier was strolling around the bustling palace. He had been called by the King and now seeking for Scarlet.
He sighed to himself when he couldn't find her anywhere. Saltier was at the main event, where the guests celebrated the lantern festival. He went there because he was hoping that he would see the Princess attending the celebration after all, but it appears he misjudged things.
Saltier remained there for a time, calmly observing the throng. He imagined himself and the Princess celebrating such an occasion together. He smirked to himself, thinking some fantastic thing for himself.
After that, Saltier decided to leave the area to continue his search. While out walking, Saltier came into a weird guy. When he sensed something extraordinary from the odd stranger, he halted.
