[It's been a while since Lyon has had to actively worry about anything terrible happening to herself, the Prince, or any of her housemates or other friends from home.  The months leading up to October haven't been quite as rife with the usual death and terror - or at least, not as much of it.  So even though she's still checking up on the Prince

Ah... Did you need some help? -The voice comes from a winged girl standing in the doorway.-

[float_like_a]

Hmm? Oh! If you want to, all right. I'm having trouble with the part in the middle.

[heteropennae]

I've played since I was little, heh... So I think I've enough experience to help. Here...

-Dizzy moved over to the other girl, slowly putting her hands over Lyon's.-

Split your fingers a bit more like this, and you'll find they respond just slightly better.-

[float_like_a]

Oh... like this?

[It's a little awkward at first, but she tries playing a few notes.]

[heteropennae]

You sort of need to re-learn how to move your fingers.

[float_like_a]

It's harder than I thought it would be.

[heteropennae]

Be that as it may, it's well worth learning. The dexterity gained from playing a piano can be applied in other tasks, like cooking.

[float_like_a]

Really? I'm learning how to do that, too!

[heteropennae]

Oh really? That's wonderful! That should help!

[float_like_a]

I wouldn't have thought the two would have much to do with each other, though. I guess I still have a lot to learn.

[heteropennae]

Well, manual dexterity is used in many things, yes?

[float_like_a]

I suppose it makes sense if you put it that way. So would that apply to swordfighting too, then?

[heteropennae]

Hmm... Perhaps? Sir Ky was an excellent swordsman, and he could play...

[float_like_a]

A friend of yours from home?

[heteropennae]

-A friend...- Yes. Someone I care about very deeply.

[float_like_a]

[Lyon smiles, nodding.]

Is he here in Mayfield too?
