"We're back!"
"Don't rush…"
"Yeah, I know."
Happily treading down from the floating ship, Reina stepped onto solid ground with a bright smile on her face.
We'd finally arrived safely at Hamen City.

This city basically felt like part of it.
Close enough to breathe easy.
As always, the terminal was loud and alive, people coming and going in all directions.
Even with winter creeping in, the cold hadn't stopped anyone.
Folks with steady jobs, families, or plans—they just kept moving.
Guess winter alone isn't enough to freeze up a whole city.
"Big bro, should we take a carriage or walk back home?"
"The county's pretty far, you know. You sure you're up for a hike?"
