backdated: wedding day iii

[downswing]

Before her second disappearance, Prassenze ravaged her compartment for a hidden box.

( 'How do you know this, Wangji?' 'Any details?' No. )

Separately, forge or jewellery master begged sought. A trinket for powders.

New arrivals, be welcome.

Do we have confirmation that she did that herself, then?

In that case it is more than likely that she is indeed the cause of this disturbance, and I cannot quite discern the cause. None of her successive transformations has made her more agreeable to Firo's entourage and now she's nowhere to be found.

We do.

Each transformation failed... differently.

(voice)

[beitangmoran]

Indeed.

Would she simply have given up now and gone into hiding? Or has she run out of what she used for provoking the incidents?

[downswing]

So Wrathion speculates.

I add: perhaps she abandoned hope.

[beitangmoran]

But she didn't leave the train, apparently, so she's still here somewhere.

But conveniently no one has ever seen her face so no one can recognize her.

[downswing]

An unknown face may change.

[beitangmoran]

It would be easier to comprehend if we could understand her reasons for doing what she did.

[downswing]

It is a wedding. Suspect love.

[beitangmoran]

That's part of the reason, but probably not the only one. Master Wei and I agree that she's also probably running from something.

... Or if that's all it is, well, one's self-esteem would have to be extremely low to try and magic an entire train of people to try and make your future in-laws like you.

[downswing]

You have not loved more than you love yourself.

[beitangmoran]

You lack the knowledge about me to make this assumption, Master Lan.

[downswing]

Then, do not let despair of love startle.
