When Rina said that she was ready to give up anything to return, Ejwan thought for a moment before replying:"
_I think there is a way, but it would require you to belong to our world."
_"What does that mean, Ejwan?" she asked.
_"It means you must have held the citizenship of the World of Dresses for at least two years."
_"Do I have to stay here for two whole years? That equals four years in my world! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!"
_"Wait, wait, calm down. Let's stop here and continue this conversation later. For now, I'll offer you a feast of pride, prepared by the finest chefs in the World of Dresses."
_"I have no desire to eat anything, Your Highness! I cannot stay here!!!"
_"Please, calm yourself. I'm sure you'll like the food. Explain it to her, Chef."
At Ejwan's command, the chef stepped forward and began to explain:
"The meal consists of the Dress Cake in three varieties: the Leather Dress Cake, the Wool Dress Cake, and the Silk Dress Cake. Then we have the Gold and Gemstone Salad, accompanied by White Thread Pasta with Lace. And finally, the Pin Dish. I hope you both enjoy this meal ."
Rina could not believe what she was hearing and cried out:"
_These things aren't edible! I can't believe you actually eat sewing tools and dress fabrics!!!"
The prince laughed and said:"
_That's why it's called the World of Dresses! Hahaha. No, don't worry my dear, I was joking. We don't eat the same materials we use in tailoring. Here, those things are like meat and vegetables. They are not the same as the fabrics and sewing tools you know. And their taste isn't much different from vegetables."
_"It's impossible that such nonsense could taste like vegetables."
_"Hahaha! You just haven't tried it yet. But your reaction is completely expected. Please, just taste it, you won't lose anything by trying!"
The girl refused. She didn't even dare to drink the water. She was holding back her tears so as not to cry in front of everyone, while inside she felt as though she were being torn apart by pain...
