[He shakes his head.]

She actually did die. That's why I called her lost. We just had to continue on without her.

[Even now it tightens his throat to remember that. He had wanted her to live her own life so badly after she spent her youth raising her little brother, but she passed on before her wedding day - never mind that her fiancé turned out to have ulterior motives.]

When I saw her again here I couldn't believe it. She told me that her last memory from home was losing consciousness in the hospital. It's like Primatica snatched her from death's door. As for me, I'd come here over half a year prior, and I was just taken out of a perfectly ordinary day. One moment I was in Edo, the next I woke up encased in crystal on one of the moons.

[He briefly raises his head, but no moon can be seen from down here, only tiny slices of daytime sky in between the buildings on Lunatia's upper levels. The lanterns never go out in Caihong for a reason.]
