Synopsis[edit | edit source]
An emotionally-stricken Yoitha recounts her story while lying on her bed. She was a line-smith in Dwarfhome. Years ago, they received an order from the King of Destruction. Due to laziness, the smiths didn’t bother checking for quality, which led to an incident where hundreds of people were killed. As a result, the masters were exiled. While Yoitha wasn’t held to account, she left Dwarfhome out of shame and guilt. She came to Merenome to find another calling, but failed, being only good at hammering. Trying to be supportive, Rolare points out that she has years to find something, speaking from experience. However, Yoitha is disgusted, retorting that he has “eternity to pleasure himself with his pasttimes.” Thoughtfully, Cara asks Yoitha if she’s tried drumming. The [Singer] is surprised to learn that drumming is not considered a musical pastime in Terandria, being only used during war or sending messages. However, the Dwarf is intrigued by a sketch of a drumset, and claims she could probably make them herself. Jeoired is more than happy to give Yoitha time off, especially after securing a royal engagement for the Synphasia at the palace. Cara borrows money from Seraphel to help pay for the drums, but accidentally gives her own money along with the loan, leaving her with an empty money pouch.
On the third day of Haeight’s indulgence of sloth, she goes to the Adventurer’s Guild to try to secure an audience with Duchess Greina. However, the [Receptionist] is skeptical of Haeight’s claim of being a childhood friend of Greina. She promises to send a note to Greina about Haeight, but just throws it away after the [Huntress] leaves the Guild.
