"A black swan?" Rei asked as she locked her eyes on that delicate swan sculpture, and obviously, she likes it a lot, sparkles of happiness can be seen from her eyes.
"Mmm... To be more accurate, it's a black swan-shaped paperweight. Since you like poems, I believe that you might like calligraphy as well, so... I carved it with a piece of leftover black wood that I feel a bit wasted to throw it away after making something else." said the King, trying to make it sounds like he didn't purposely make that gift for Rei.
"You crafted it by yourself? This is a really incredible piece of artwork. But why black swan though? Aren't white swans supposed to be more common and likeable?" Rei asked, she is also pretending that she is not particularly happy about the given gift.
"Yes, a white swan is indeed more common and more likeable due to its bright and clean appearance. But black swan has its own beauty and goodness as well, and since it's uncommon, it is unique on its way." said the King.
