The youngest and smallest being Celes, then Tuuli, then the old lion, the giant tortoise, and at last the beautiful crow.
Rein's crow was the oldest in this family and her grandma's giant turtle was the biggest.
This was the complete one, and now, things had also cald down.
Leo bent down and bowed his head to talk with everyone and just his head was one-third size of the estate.
He was barely inside the estate, his back body being outside of the gigantic walls.
But Anna liked this big turtle more than her giant kitty, Taika.
And the way she gave more attention to this giant creature didn't go well with the big cat.
She got jealous and even tried to take Anna away from him but Anna refused her, understanding what might be going on in her mind and her feelings as Anna's 'mother'.
Well, Anna understood everything and gave both beasts a kiss, asking them to beco friends.
And Taika just accepted that she can't have this sweet angel all to herself.
She wasn't soone who would beco a certain soone's.
And Anna wanted to play with this new grandpa turtle who can talk.
Maybe after Celes, this was her first ti seeing a beast that can talk.
And this turtle was interested in Celes too.
Celes was playing with Anna all this ti and when he noticed her, he can't contain his curiosity.
Anna being Anna, introduced the two, and I just watched the little girl having so fun.
And this was wonderful to look at, a pretty and wholeso scene.
She had fully recovered from that shock from so ti ago, and this was all thanks to Celes and Zoe. Maybe the crow, too.
Mister turtle was also helping Anna, playing with her however she wanted.
Taika then went back to her 'owner', to my mom and dad and dad was talking to his kitten about her 'words'.
Dad knew we knew what things this big cat was saying a while ago, and I can't help but rember those things.
And this person before was the sa, almost wanting to laugh at those words.
But we can control this much, and more than that, we were holding hands.
This was no lewd thing if so cultured person was out there. This was pure.
This was a pure thing, devoid of the 'stuff' that one might think.
No. Neither of us had those thoughts, especially her.
We were good children who knew things, and even though difficult, we knew the ti would co to cross the boundaries.
I wanted to see the big turtle, and I had fulfilled my wish.
The sunset was approaching, and… this was going to be an outside candlelight dinner.
And I could have made the dinner today myself but the mood was too nice so I wanted to do sothing else.
And everyone was the sa.
The house chefs were good, no doubt, and everyone was already tired from the things that happened today.
So, the dinner, then the old ones will accompany the two of us for the spirit summoning, and then, if things go well, I can have a good sleep.
Alone, obviously.
We were leaving tomorrow morning.
Everyone had work after this weekend and I also wanted to see the great capital.
Well, I won't have to worry about a thing, as I will have one of the greatest guides with in the capital.
The guide… this pretty girl.
"How's capital?" I asked this great guide sitting before , and she smiled with a confident expression.
"It's an amazing place~. From the outer area, the markets, the inner areas, the area of upper standings, everything is amazing~!
Of course, there's your mom's auction house, one of the attractions of the empire.
I have been there many tis, and I just know you will love that place when you go there in the future.
Aside from that, there are many unique street foods, high-class hotels with great food, and cool places to play around.
It's a great place. You will have fun there~."
She smirked at that last line and I didn't know if it was just my imagination but she definitely said 'you' will have fun.
"Haaa... nice joke. But you are coming with . No joking there.
Just stay with for a while and help get used to this new place and capital."
Well, I knew asking her to stay with was too much, but she understood what I was trying to say, and this little old childish girl just smiled calmly at .
She didn't answer with words but, I already knew she was going to co with .
Well, the day was coming to an end with the golden sunset painting the horizon with its marvelous colors, and we all knew this would have looked from higher ground.
And what better higher ground than this giant Leo's head?
But, well, not many had much interest in seeing this sunset.
Rein and I had seen the sunrise together so, we just transported to the sa rooftop to see the sunset too.
Well, I would have loved a dinner here too but, this place was 'dangerous'.
'Anything' can happen here so, we went down as soon as the sunset was over and only so color remained on this horizon, and the night sky greeted us.
'Haaa... the day was fun and now, there is her special spirit summoning.
I wonder what special one will co at her call.
It would be fun if it's a cute one. It would be amazing if she has a baby of her own too.
She will have a great practice for the faraway future.'
And this sudden thought of mine… made chuckle unconditionally.
I didn't an it in so weird way you all might think but, it was true in the end.
If in the end, there was peace, I wanted it to be with her and the special people in our lives.
Lives are short but, they definitely beco epic when a narrator who loves his work more than anything 'describes' them.
