Other adventurers didn’t find her so charming and they sneered at every flinch that distracted her. She wore black and white as if they were the only colours that existed in nature, like romantic swords that intimidate during the day and at night make their impression on the beach terrace.

It didn’t last very long, I hoped it would be enough for the whole winter.
