“I’m sorry I never told you,” Garnet looked slightly awkward. “It was Mary who had found … who had freed from that dungeon. After that, I started to look for fragnts of myself. You see, I’m not like Salicia, whose entire soul was converted to karmic. I’m also not like Elaya, who ford from mory and grew powerful on her own. My soul was shattered and the pieces were scattered.
“I wanted to put my soul back together. I wanted to regain my lost mories. So, I hunted down any rumor of dwarves. That’s why I was in that miner’s town so long ago. Orichalcum is the ore of the Deep. I thought that if Widow’s Dungeon possessed so, then I might be able to reunite with the lore and regain so of my lost mories. It’s also one of the reasons I wanted to co to the Deep. I hoped to find the last remnants of my past. It seems that Master found them for .”
“Why didn’t you tell ?”
She winced. “I never really had the opportunity. We were only acquaintances at first. It wasn’t until we t in Twilight dungeon that I started to realize how you felt. I don’t know if you rember, but what you said back then really affected . You didn’t care whether soone was karmic or not. That made happy. Of course, I also had my doubts. Your soul had similarly been shattered, and I wasn’t certain that you were truly you.
“Of course, there was Salicia and Elaya, but I was still afraid. At that point, I had already made up a story, and I didn’t want to reveal to you the truth and risk changing things. I realized before I could be open to Master, I needed to understand myself. However, seeing you know crying over just a piece of , makes feel a bit happy. It makes realize that it doesn’t matter who I am. Master would have accepted anyway.”
“G-garnet.” I finally stood up, turning to her.
She smiled up at , and that smile looked so much like that little girl’s smile, that it caused my heart to skip a beat.
“Every ti I found a piece of my missing lore, I changed my na. I didn’t make it up about dwarves changing nas! Technically, we get a na at birth and then a new na on our naming day as an adult. I just decided that every ti I rge with another piece of my soul, I beco soone different and need a new na. I found a small piece of my lore in Twilight, which was why I renad myself, Garnet. Although I ended up losing this piece of myself, I think it has changed anyway. Did she have a na?”
“I called Sapphire.”
She nodded. “Then, Sapphire will be my na from now on. Master, can you make yours once again? Mmm!”
I leaned down, and kissed her on the lips, using Enslave to reform the bond between us. When I pulled away, she was blushing nervously.
“Haven’t you been teasing since we t?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.
“Yeah, but when you do it so suddenly… I wasn’t ready.” She responded, pouting cutely.
“Deek! What the hell do you think you’re doing with my daughter?” A voice bellowed out.
King Diorite had chosen this mont of all monts to appear. Just my luck.
