...Rika, is that you?

[prayfortomorrow]

Who are you?!
How do you know my name?!

That voice... it sounds familiar...But that's definitely one of those men I see.

[hailbeautyqueen]

Rika, it's me, Etna.

Did you...forget me, too?

[prayfortomorrow]

You... You don't look like Etna...!

Etna would never try to hurt me!!

*thinks she sees Etna-man holding a knife*

[hailbeautyqueen]

Rika, I'm...I'm not trying to hurt you!

I'm not strong enough to hurt anyone, even if I wanted to...

[prayfortomorrow]

How can I know that for sure?
Prove that you're Etna!

I'm scared...

[hailbeautyqueen]

I...I don't know...I don't know how. But...it is me, Rika.

First the king and now you, Rika? Am I important to no one...?

[prayfortomorrow]

I hope I don't regret this...

O-okay... I-I'll trust you...Etna...
P-Please don't hurt me...nano desu...
*clings to Etna because she's very scared*

[hailbeautyqueen]

I won't hurt you, Rika.

*Holds her*
