Part 585: Libra A

Hello, Minerva. How are you? Splendid weather, isn't it?

(Minerva roars)

Ha ha. Yes, yes indeed. Cloudless skies? A dry southerly wind? It's a perfect day for an airborne tour!

You two are as thick as thieves, aren't you!

Ah, hello, Cherche. And yes, I feel we have established a true heart-to-heart connection. It's all thanks to you.

Heh. I fear this is all your doing. You spend so much time with her, Minerva has grown very fond of you.

To think that I've become close friends with a member of another species...

But, no... I mustn't think like that.

Like what?

I fight the instinctive urge to place individuals into categories.

We are all fellow creatures in the eyes of the gods. I never truly understood this until my contact with Minerva.

I bet she noticed the change in your thinking. She's a very wise wyvern.

Indeed! I am starting to learn the truth of that. And if you don't mind me saying, I think you are very wise as well.

I've learned a lot from Minerva, I imagine.

I do envy your relationship. I would love to be so close to her. I must continue to devote myself to building trust and friendship.

I'm sure you'll succeed if you put your mind to it!
