Realizing Their Future

"Princess... I practiced hundreds of times in front of the mirror... and I asked everyone about how to express my feelings for you all this time, the Euclase way," Zaha said. "And I felt so guilty, as I also wanted to do everything the right way as I knew it all my life on the Eastern Continent."

Zaha couldn't throw away the traditions he learned as a boy, and he also wanted to honor them, as he felt there was nothing wrong with following the rules. But at the same time, he also wanted to show his feelings in a way that Arai would understand and be familiar with.

"So I decided to express my feelings, and propose to you at the same time... this is all to show my seriousness and that I want you in my life... as my wife."

A man and a woman must be in an official relationship before they could speak to each other and express their feelings through actions or words. It was all about a woman's reputation and a man's responsibility.
