"Why is the Supreme Commander drinking and eating all alone?" Shana asked as she approached Thirteen, who was watching the soldiers, who were merrily celebrating their victory.
Countless big bonfires were lit, illuminating the darkness, and everyone was having a great time.
The Dvalinn Federation opened their coffers, and made sure that everyone was able to eat and drink to their heart's content.
Even Benedict, who was always straitlaced, was happily drinking with Arthur, whom he considered as his love rival during their teenage years.
"I'm not alone," Thirteen replied. "I have Tiona with me. Isn't that right, Tiona?"
The Black Snake nodded, completely agreeing with what her Master said. As long as they were together, Thirteen would never be alone.
"You know that's not what I meant," Shana said as she sat on the log where the teenage boy was seated. "Everyone wants to be with you, so why aren't you celebrating with them?"
