General Goldberg and General Cecille were waiting for us at the port. They
said they'd take me back to the manor and Ion and the others to the castle,
but then what about my chance to become a hero and get myself free? I told
them I'd take everybody to the castle myself.
It's not like there's anyone here in Baticul who can overrule me, so they
agreed to that, and now we're heading for the castle.
This is the first time I've actually been in Baticul since I lost my
memory... It doesn't even feel like home anymore. Oh, well. Right now we need
to head for the castle to see Uncle.
When we got to the audience room, someone was already there--Grand Maestro
Lahari, from the Order of Sol. I listened to him talk for a little bit, but
he really bugs me. He talks like he's so special, even though he's below Sion,
and all he was doing was spouting lies to try and worsen our relationship
with Malkuth. I guess he's the one behind all this war stuff... Master Kyo
wasn't doing anything. I bet Kitten will change her tone about Lahari after this.
We gave the peace letter to Uncle, and then I heard that Mother's fallen
ill. She's always been pretty weak... Apparently my cousin Gwen is
visiting her, and everybody else wants to see the manor, so we're heading
there now.
We ran into Father when we entered the mansion. He was with General
Cecille, and he was cold to me, as always.
He seemed to be concerned about Master Kyo. Something worries me about
that...
When we reached the drawing room, Gwen was there, just back from seeing
Mother.
I haven't seen her in a while, but she was playing the proper lady as
always. When I think about the fact that I'm engaged to her, it really gets
me down. But Gwen told me something that startled me--apparently, my
disappearance is being blamed on Master Kyo kidnapping me, and he might even
be executed for it. No way! It's Kitten's fault! I asked Gwen to talk to
Uncle about it, and she told me to remember how I proposed to her as a kid.
How am I supposed to remember that?
Anyway, Gwen went back to the castle to talk to Uncle. I hope Master
Kyo will be okay...
When I went to see Mother, she was really happy that I'd come home. I wish
Father was even half as nice.
Apparently Mother thought my disappearance was some kind of plot, but she
seemed relieved when Kitten apologized for the incident.
Well, I've visited Mother, and I've seen Gwen... Might as well go get
some rest.
When I returned to my room, Sion, Emrls and Saiyukiness all said they were going
back to the castle. Christian has some kind of report to make too, and even Kitten
finally left. It's been a long time since I was alone. Finally I can get some
good rest in my own bed. Tomorrow I may be stuck in the manor, but for now
all I want is rest.
