conversations.value:  After dancing with Claire, I decided to take a breather and went to the end of the dance hall to check out the food. The culinary reform appeared to be a success, as the spread on display looked absolutely delicious. Slightly reimagined regional Nur dishes were featured alongside new dishes from vassal states. They were all lined up on the table, plate touching plate.

conversations.value:  "I feel bad that I ever looked down on the empire’s cuisine… I’m still going to eat though!" Even students from the Bauer Kingdom partook, experiencing some culture shock as they did. One mustn’t turn up their nose at other cuisines because they assume their own culture’s food is superior. Food is an ever-evolving thing.

conversations.value:  Having completed my main objective of dancing with Claire, I continued on to my secondary objective: eating. Starting with the sausages, I rapidly began filling my plate with a little of this and a little of that, when—

conversations.value:  "Oh, there you are, Rae." Hilda appeared. She wore an evening gown as well, a long blue dress. It looked so good on her that I couldn’t help being intimidated.

conversations.value:  "Is something the matter, Miss Hilda?"
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Not at all, I just wanted to give you my thanks." Her usual soft smile crossed her face. "Thanks to you, the empire’s cuisine has greatly improved. We even made it in time for the princess’s debut. I can’t thank you enough."
conversations.prefix: Hilda:

conversations.value:  "No, I hardly did anything."
conversations.prefix: Rae:

conversations.value:  "Modesty isn’t always a virtue, Rae. You’ve done well. Be proud of it."
conversations.prefix: Hilda:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Right…" I wasn’t being modest; I really didn’t think I’d done much.
conversations.prefix: Rae:

conversations.prefix: Philine:

conversations.value:  "Good evening, Princess."

conversations.value:  Philine approached. I’d seen her dancing with a number of people earlier, so she was presumably taking a short break.

conversations.value:  "Thank you, but I’ll hold off until I’ve finished my engagements. Ah, Rae, where might I find Claire? I want to ask her to dance."
conversations.prefix: Hilda:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Miss Claire should still be out there. Perhaps you passed her?"
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "I see… She would be popular, wouldn’t she?"
conversations.prefix: Philine:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Indeed. As her partner, I’m both proud and jealous of that fact."
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Yeah…" Philine looked a bit downcast when I said the word “partner.” I’m not giving her up even if you make that face, you know.
conversations.prefix: Philine:

conversations.value:  "How about a dance with me, then?"
conversations.prefix: Hilda:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Oh, sure."
conversations.prefix: Philine:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Oh, I’m sorry, Princess. I was asking Rae."
conversations.prefix: Hilda:

conversations.value:  "Huh?" Philine’s face paled. Hilda gave no indication that she noticed.
