The sound of the bonfire burning is like natural white noise, allowing listeners to relax unconsciously.
However, Elsa is unable to relax at all right now; her mind is in a state of intense tension.
"..."
The bonfire seems to have become a distinct boundary, separating her from Solar.
Solar sits on the other side, curiously examining the small sculpture that is obviously crafted to resemble his likeness, occasionally praising the craftsmanship's exquisite detail.
Of course, it's exquisite; this limited edition small sculpture named "Praise the Sun Warrior" only has three hundred in existence, each handcrafted by excellent artisans, thus commanding a high price.
Wondering why just having a handmade label could sell for a high price? Even Count Charon doesn't know; he believes that sculptures mass-produced with Earth Magic are sturdier and more durable, but those are mainly for children, while finely handcrafted ones are aimed at adults.
Yet, Solar seems somewhat puzzled now.
