Part 511: Nowi C

Huh? Is that you, Tharja? What are you doing?

Strange. I cannot read through the shell that cloaks your mind.

Dragons don't have shells, silly! They have scales and talons and stuff.

Speaking of talons, I need some of your nail clippings. Just a sliver or two from the ends will suffice.

Um...what for?

Manakete talons are used in dark mage divinations. I want to see what the future holds between me and Robin.

Oh my gosh, you can tell fortunes? That's amazing! Okay, wait. ...Oof! Here's a bag of my toenail clippings! ...Yes, I saved them. Don't ask why. Long story. Slightly gross. But! if you take these, I get to ask the first fortune. Deal?

*Yawn* I suppose you want me to find your true love, yes?

What? No! Don't you dare poke around my love life! No, I want to find out about my mom and dad. Like, where they are, and if they're safe, and all that. Can you do it?

...Yes. Give me your clippings, and I shall begin the preparations.
