Dear Katarina,

I imagine you are doing well. As for us, we are all doing good.

Right now, we are in a cold country in the North.

Having grown up in a hot country, we don't handle the cold well.

Even so, we are enjoying ourselves since there are many things we have never seen.

Especially that thing called "snow" that falls from the sky. It is amazing.

Sparkling white ice crystals falling from the sky.

The first time I witnessed it, it was such a beautiful sight that I forgot my words and just gazed at it.

I would like you to see it.

Since we were all fascinated by the falling snow, the locals smiled warmly at us.

Then, Qumiit excitedly gathered some on a plate, saying, "Once gathered, won't it become that ice food that we ate in another country?", but the locals stopped us, saying we would get an upset stomach. We all laughed.

We've been enjoying ourselves like this.

It is all thanks to you and your friends.

I won't send this letter to you since you don't remember our time together, but I have faith there will come a day when I will be able to give it to you. 

I am amazed at the beautiful background of the movie, and the castle and the tent are wonderful(I didn't even remember the castle being so luxurious, and there was even a fountain!?)

The show of the caravan was wonderful! They even had a new song in that scene.

Geordo and Keith are really funny. Geordo is like, "Oh, 'cause I have a fiancee while you don't, so you should take this mission. Haha, and don't you think it is good to marry a princess?"

Even though I don't know why Keith is a little blushing after Nicol tells him that Geordo thinks that they are important to him, but aren't their relationship beautiful? I believe they can be together if there are chances.

I keep screaming something in my heart like, "Too close too close too close" when Princess Qumiit clings Alan, though I know Qumiit is a male...he even hold his arm and he...my God...

The back story of Aaqil is really tearing...

The battle between the sacred beast and the main characters is extremely eye-catching, and their magic is fabulous!(Geordo really can ride a horse!😲)

In truth, everything happens too fast that I sometimes feel in haste and wish they can slow down the pace. (I can't even remember plenty of details after watching it)

I was surprised by the vision effects and the music. They attracted my attention from the first moment to the last second.

I thought that there would be some romantic scenes between Catarina and her childhood friends, but in fact, most of the romance is focusing on the interaction between Catarina and Aaqil.

And there is no extra anime after the movie, I'm so upset about it...😢

But in conclusion, this is a marvelous movie, and I will surely watch it again if possible!

I Went To the Mutlaq Caravan After the Incident…

I, Katarina Claes, had come to the Mutlaq caravan today. A while had passed since the Mutlaq sacred beast's rampaging incident, but after hearing that the caravan people were still busy with the aftermath, I wondered how they were doing and secretly came to see them.

Qumiit: Oh, it's you, Katarina.

As I approached the tents and looked for the caravan people, I was called out from behind. When I turned around, it was a familiar face.

Katarina: Qumiit! Have you been well? I heard you still had lots of work, so I wanted to know if I could help in any way.

Qumiit: Everyone is doing great. The repairs are taking time, but there's nothing bad enough to ask for help. Thanks for asking. More importantly, I was about to take a break, so come with me.

Before I could reply, Qumitt grabbed my hand and started running.

Qumiit: Hey everyone, I've brought a guest.

After slipping inside a tent, Qumiit called out to everyone. They were sitting on sheets and preparing tea.

Nashiit / Haati: Wah, Katarina! 

Alqus: Miss Katarina!

The twins Nashiit and Haati were wide-eyed, and Alqus was wide-mouthed.

Qumiit: She came here wondering if there was anything she could help with, but since there isn't at the moment, I invited her to our break.

Qumiit grinned again. Then the caravan leader quietly came forward, and…

Caravan Leader: Miss Katarina, I just can't thank you enough. Sincerely, thank you.

After saying this, he bowed his head. I flusteredly shook my hand.

Katarina: No, I didn't do anything.

It was because my friends, Aaqil, and the caravan people worked hard that the incident was resolved. Even though I said this, the caravan leader smiled and said "Thank you" again while bowing his head. 

Caravan Leader: Aaqil will return in just a little while so please eat some sweets while waiting for him.

I took the caravan leader at his words and started enjoying tea and sweets with everyone.

Qumiit: Go on and eat. This won't be enough to repay our debt, though.

Qumiit encouraged me to have sweets.

Katarina: Umm, like I told Mr. Caravan Leader, I didn't do anything.

Qumiit: No, without you, I would have stayed oblivious to Aaqil's real intentions. I swear, that guy just won't say the most important things.

Qumiit grumbled. I told him,

Katarina: Aaqil just wanted to protect you and everyone. Now, he'll probably talk to you about anything.

After I said this,

Qumiit: I know that, but… you're right. Now, he won't hide anything. Alright, I'll ask him all kinds of personal stuff!

Qumiit said this and made a mischievous smile. Aaqil arrived just at that moment. After noticing I was here, he made a surprised face just like everyone did, then...

Katarina: Aaqil, have you been well?

When I asked this, Aaqil bashfully said yes.

Qumiit: …and so, I was thinking of having more candid talks with you, Aaqil.

Qumiit briefly explained the conversation we had earlier, then asked with a wide grin...

Qumiit: Aaqil, what kind of girls are your type?

I was surprised to hear Qumiit bring up love gossip. Aaqil was also wide-eyed.

Qumiit: You didn't seem to have that kind of time until now, so this talk never really came up. But I'm really curious about your type and stuff!

Indeed, considering Aaqil's circumstances until now, he probably didn't have the time to fall in love. But Aaqil was free now, so he could.

Qumiit: And so, what kind of girls are your type?

Qumiit asked this with a grinning face and Aaqil blushed. If I remember correctly, the heroine of the game was the bright and curious kind. So that was his type? I was also curious, so...

Katarina: What kind of girls are your type?

When I asked the same question as Qumitt, Aaqil's face turned even redder, maybe because he was embarrassed.

Aaqil: N-No, I…

I watched Aaqil and waited for his next words. But the bright red Aaqil could only open his mouth without being able to utter a word.

Qumiit: Aaqil, you can at least tell us your type!

When Qumiit said this with a grinning face, Aaqil suddenly raised his eyebrows and spoke.

Aaqil: And what about you? I know you secretly bought a necklace when you went shopping in town. When will you give it?

Qumiit: H-How do you know that?!

This time, it was Qumiit who was startled and flustered. Then the two of them started fighting about something.

Katarina: So you went shopping in a Sorcier town?

When I asked this innocent question, Nashiit answered me with a smile.

Nashiit: Yes. After all, the King is not taking our money anymore. We went shopping for necessities and stuff. And then, we were told we could buy something we liked. Look!

After saying this, Nashiit took out a bird plush toy that fitted in the hand. When I inadvertently let out "Cute!", Nashiit grinned.

Nashiit: It was love at first sight so I bought it. I'm so happy since I never had anything that was only mine before.

He said this while hugging the plush toy. Looking at Nashiit, Haati sitting next to him cooly said this.

Haati: You're happy just from buying that? What a kid.

After he did, Nashiit made a malicious smile, and…

Nashiit: Like you can talk. You've secretly bought one in a different color and you sleep with it!

...said this. Haati turned bright red and started repeatedly hitting him.

Alqus: As for me, I've bought this bracelet.

Alqus bashfully said this while showing me the bracelet around her arm. 

With most of their earnings taken by the King, the caravan had no money to buy superfluous things and the members mostly had no personal belongings. Thank goodness they were free now. As I was sipping tea with Alqus while feeling warm and fluffy, Aaqil and Qumiit quickly came to us. 

Qumiit: Alqus, I give you this. You were hesitating between the bracelet and this necklace, right? There wasn't anything I particularly wanted, so…

After saying this, he quickly handed the necklace to Alqus.

Alqus: Huh? Th-Thank you.

Alqus accepted it with a bright red face. Qumiit's face turned even redder.

So there was that kind of thing between them? When I turned my eyes to Aaqil, he told me in a low voice,

Aaqil: Everyone in the caravan has noticed, but those two are not making much progress.

How lovely. As I inadvertently smiled, Aaqil…

Aaqil: Thank you, really. This happiness is because of you.

..He said.

Katarina: Please, it's because you and everyone worked hard, don't you think? Hopefully, you'll have more and more happiness coming around.
