conversations.prefix: “Yes, that’s right. Those scales are used in the ceremony that ends the festival.” I was attending another tea session in the role of Claire’s servant. Today’s theme:

conversations.value:  Yu nodded in agreement. “We’ve only recently begun deliberately designing what we call magical tools, but items with strange powers have appeared all through history.”

conversations.prefix: Yu:

conversations.value:  “Well, it’s a sort of duel, I suppose. You might even call it a blind date… Basically, it’s a quest to secure a bride.” Yu said with a grin.
conversations.prefix: Yu:

conversations.value:  “As is written in Poesie Amour, love has long been a seed of war. The Amour Festival is the battle for a bride spoken of in the legend’s verses.”

conversations.value:  “Is there an offering?” Manaria asked. She was joking, but, well…
conversations.prefix: Manaria:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “That is exactly correct. Offerings of love are placed on the scales, and their weight decides the victor of the battle.” Yu affirmed.
conversations.prefix: Yu:

conversations.value:  “I’m stunned. I’ve studied the history of the Bauer Kingdom, so I knew the legend, but I had no idea the scales actually existed.”
conversations.prefix: Manaria:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “Well, our history is full of elaborate customs and rituals. Perhaps your instructor couldn’t cover everything in detail.” Yu said as I quietly filled his empty cup. He thanked me and continued.
conversations.prefix: Yu:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “Of course, when I say ‘weight,’ I don’t mean the actual mass of the objects. The scales are set to compare rarity. In other words, they tip in favor of the weight of love.”
conversations.prefix: Yu:

conversations.value:  "What? So, you could just offer up the Flower of Flora?"
conversations.prefix: Manaria:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “Based on the festival’s history, the Flower of Flora is undoubtedly the heaviest offering on record.”
conversations.prefix: Yu:

conversations.value:  “Which is in keeping with the legend, then.” Manaria looked impressed.
