《Shadowlove (Lite)》Chapter 58: Preparation
Advertisement
Yasuline returns to her room. Most of her clothes had put into storage. Likely to ensure none of them would be ruined when she returns from her quest. On the bed, there was the adventuring outfit that the White Reaper bought her. But now it had a few more touches to her eyes, added to it all. And she adored each thing. She puts it on and goes to the mirror to check it.
Around her neck was a red scarf. She recalled this scarf was something that her mother actually made for her, for her birthday. She planned to wear it for the weekend, but she often cheats and wears it about to feel the length of it flow behind her. She and her mother know she likes it as it makes her feel closer to being an adventurer.
The next new accessory was the long cloth behind her back that hung at the back of her legs. She instantly recognized it as her father's old cape that he wore when he was out adventuring. She knows it as she often takes it from his chambers and wears it herself. It looks to be customed into being a waist cape as it doesn't droop down as much as it was before when it was hanging off her shoulders.
"Someone sure loves their new outfit." Someone had spoken up by the door, finally taking her attention to how the scarf and waist cape looked on her. She turns to see Merry carrying a unique detailed bag in her arms. With a smile, she would step inside to set the bag down on a table near where Yasuline stood. She didn't really say anything but kept watching Merry.
Merry would take notice of the silence and looks at her with slight confusion. "Something wrong?"

"N-no, it's just. It feels surreal to be doing this. And no, I don't have to take this off and put on an uncomfortable dress."
"Heh, I know what you mean. I'm sure it'll be weird for everyone in the castle to not see you around."
"Yeah, it does seem to fast to be happening. But my dad said it was an important quest."
"That is correct."
Another maid would knock on the door frame and enter. In her hands was the runeblade that her father had before.
"Oh right." Yasuline would say as she reaches for it and takes it into her hand. She was surprised to see the blade was shimmering like new. Someone polished it and cleaned it well. No signs of wear or usage could be found. She connects the scabbard to her belt and tucks the sword back in while watching herself. She unconsciously lets out a small exciting squeal as she does.
"Yes, you definitely look the part for an adventurer." Merry would comment. Only hearing such a thing excited her more.
"Oh right, what's in the bag?" Yasuline would say after she had had her fill with admiring herself.
"Well, it would be the basic necessities that you'll likely need for your adventure."
"Oh, like potions and stuff?"
"No no. Though you should definitely get some when you pass by the market. But this here will have some more clothes that you might need to change into."
"Oh really. That's good to know. Anything else?"
"Well, the basic bathing tools are there too, in case you come across some clean water to clean yourself with."
"Oh, good thinking. I'll definitely need some of that. Don't want to smell bad, especially with I'm with two boys."

"Especially when you are with boys. Who knows? Sparks could fly and such things. Lucky you to have such a handsome looking man to be your traveling partner. The godbeasts know that I would love to."
"You are starting to sound like the sisters," Yasuline says as she lightly tugs the back from the bed and puts it over her shoulder. The two laugh a bit at that remark, but Merry was also blushing. Hiding the fact that she did mean what she said about the strange man the princess would be traveling with.
"It'll be lonely without you." Merry would say quietly. Not really looking at Yasuline. She would just stare out at the balcony glass door. Yasuline didn't really know what to say to that. She knew Merry when they were young. Oftentimes saying that they could be sisters in another lifetime. She would step up behind Merry and hugs her.
"Hey, It'll be fine. Besides, I'll need you here so you can go watch my parents and keep them out of trouble."
"True, who knows how your dad will be with you gone."
"Yeah, he'll completely freak when I outshine him in adventures and soon, people will call me the Adventure Princess."
