Danse Sombras Oasis, Pacific Coastal Hephaestus mountain range Republic of Hephae, Continent: Barat, the Year 2043, Planet: Grimoire
Two days passed after the banquet, and Chester and Clarence enjoyed a rare moment when they could just walk around and explore all the various areas of the oasis.

Chester had hustled off with Calliope and Emilia. The two girls were mated, so Clarence wasn't worried about them hanging around Chester. He'd gained the distinct impression that they viewed him as the one needing protection instead.
