Is it true that first night feels different?

"Hey...are you alright?" I peeked inside the living room, where my previously drunk friends were. After a little nap, Angwi made them some coffee to sober up some more.

D'Ara left while I was crying some more, and after helping me put the portrait inside a frame, Natha went to Lord Castle to check on the preparation for tomorrow's event; the parade during the day and the banquet in the evening.

Well, when your new husband was a Lord, he still needed to check on things even during the day. Especially with all the guests that would be coming tomorrow. I almost forgot about it since I had been confined in the Lair for the past two weeks, but...this was basically an inter-realm event.

And since I was left alone, I looked for my friends while waiting for dinner.

"Vaaal!" Zia and Zarga threw their arms up--like a twin--and greeted me with vigor.

Oh, well--seems like they were okay.
