Before Miss Feliana left yesterday, she suggested that Iluna consult a witch who mastered the power of balance. Coincidentally, the symbol behind Miss Galina's chair in the Witch Council was "Balance."
Iluna did not object immediately, and Miss Galina did not urge her but glanced at Shard.
After serious thought, Iluna gathered her long hair and looked at Shard as well before whispering,
"Sorry, I like men."
The Witch Council was very mysterious and low-profile; even the Church could not confirm that these women, who claimed to be witches, indeed possessed the powers of the Fifth Era. The common perception outside was that the Witch Council was known as the "Handkerchief Enthusiasts Society," so Iluna was somewhat worried about her safety.
"You can rest assured,"
Miss Galina smiled,
"I don't like men."
Iluna looked even more worried.
"But I also don't like girls with little figure like you, look at my maid."
