The day before we departed

"Let's pack our stuff and proceed with the journey to find the Red Comet," I told Ruciel. 

"You mean now?" 

"Dishonesty said we could go anytime, so… let's greet Teria and the others. I'm sure, they know when we will depart, or rather, I will listen to their suggestions about when we will leave Uncertainty." 

Ruciel's long ears jolted. "If you say so." 

"Say." I gaze into her eyes directly. 

The serious eye contact that I did suddenly made the girl fidgety, she refused to see my eyes, then she lowered her head. "What?" She asked softly. 

"What do you think about the idea to stay here?" 

"Why, why do we have to stay here!?" She asked in panic and alert, a moment after she raised her head. 

"Because I think, this place is ideal," I started. "This place looks so peaceful, a marriage between women will be accepted easily, and importantly, no human or man here. Someone will not find a better paradise than this place."
