The effects of the first military confrontation between the two nations could already be felt in the atmosphere the next day, especially with the number of people in mourning. Still, none of that had much to do with what was happening inside the Astryd residence.
After the conversation and dinner the day before, Silvia had had time to think about Desmond's proposal, making the decision to accept the said proposal; Silvia came to that conclusion as she watched her dear little sister sleep. In a way, Silvia and Desmond were quite alike; both had someone else's safety in mind most of the time.
Silvia went to the Astryd residence as soon as she decided, finding a Desmond already prepared for her arrival. For this unique occasion, Claire, Sasha, and Cecilia opened a space in their diary, unable to contain their curiosity. The girls' interest was not unwarranted, as Desmond had never shown anyone the ability he planned to use.
