Tiz: Four travelers on a certain clear winter’s day

Ringabel: Everyone! Morning!

Agnes: Good morning.

Edea: Good Mornin~~~

Tiz: Eh? Ah….Good morning, everyone.

Ringabel: Now, I have a piece of good news and a piece of bad news. Which one do you all want to hear first?

Agnes: The good news please.

Edea: Yup!

Ringabel: The good news first then. Have a look outside! Look, it’s really awesomely good weather right?

Edea: That’s right! This is the kind of weather when we say a clear day with not a cloud in the sky, isn’t it?!

Tiz: Uh……Over there, there’s a cloud though.

Agnes: It’s really a fine day with not a cloud in sight!

Tiz: Just look, over there……there’s a cloud……a small one……

Ringabel: Then let’s move on to the next piece of news, this time, it’s bad news.

Edea: Eh~~~?

Ringabel: The day…when the reunion festival should be held…is not today!

Agnes: What? That’s…..

Tiz: Eh? What……Reu……

Ringabel: What bad coincidence…the festival…only starts from tomorrow.

Edea: It’s has to be today!! Such wonderful weather suits the festival the best!!

Agnes: No, you don’t have to worry, Edea! According the information I got from the few hunters I met this morning……

Edea: The information you got…..?

Agnes: This kind of fair weather……will continue for about a week!

Ringabel: That’s great!!!

Edea: Yay~~~~yi~~~

Tiz: Um……

(Agnes, Edea and Ringabel continue cheering)

Edea: Agnes, Agnes~

Agnes:Eh?

Edea: Yay~~~~Yi

(In case it wasn’t obvious, Edea high-fived Agnes)

Agnes: Yay—yi…….

Ringabel: Ahhhh, Edea, I want to do that too

Edea: Then~ Everyone together

All but Tiz: Yay—Yi—-Hahahahahahaha

Tiz: Wait a minute, everyone!

Ringabel: Eh? What’s wrong, Tiz?

Tiz: I’m sorry for interrupting when everyone is in such high spirits, but……I really can’t follow your emotions right now…

Ringabel: Oh, is that so? Just catch up then~ Yay—Yi~

Tiz: Eh?

Edea: Yay~~yi~

Agnes: Hahahaha

Tiz: Eh, no……about that…….

Ringabel: Hm? Now what’s wrong, Tiz, you see to be acting strange.

Tiz: No, the one being strange should be all of you, not me….What is it that got you guys so
happy?

Edea: Can you not be happy?!

Agnes: Yes, what she said. From tomorrow onwards, it’s the event that happens once every four
years—-

All but Tiz: Reunion Festival!

Tiz: Ehhhh….

Edea: What was that just now?!

Tiz: Eh…what…this…

Ringabel: Tiz’s reaction just now really makes people feel hurt….

Agnes: Maybe……he just didn’t hear us properly? Let’s do it one more time. Ready—

All but Tiz: Reunion Festival!

Tiz: Ok. So….what in the world is that……

Edea: Eh~~~??!

Ringabel: No way?! You don’t even know what the Reunion Festival is?!

Edea: I can’t believe it! Even Ringabel who lost his memories knows what it is!

Agnes: How did you even manage to live till now?!

Tiz: Hey! Why is even Agnes acting like this?! This period of time in the past years just happens to be the time when we’re preparing for the sheep to go through winter. In my village, whether it was the children or the adults, we just worked endlessly, there wasn’t time at all to attend any kind of festival from other countries…….

Edea: I see, well, Tiz is a shepherd after all. But even if that’s the case……you didn’t know anything about this at all, that really surprised me.

Ringabel: Uh huh….So, for the sake of Tiz, our hardworking young man, let me introduce you to this Reunion Festival. This is the land of meetings prepared for the sake of people who treasure each other! Men and women in love with each other can confirm their love! Aside from that……

Edea: Wait, STOP!

Agnes: It’s not limited to boyfriends and girlfriends, family and other friends are included.

Ringabel: More IM POR TAN LY! Couples confirming their love with each other! Looking at each other passionately, embracing each other deeply! And then……

Edea: Ringabel shut up! –Let me explain it to you instead~ The Reunion Festival is a world-wide event that’s held once every four years. Many many people from all across the world will go down to the cities which are holding the festival! That would also mean that you’ll be able to eat the delicacies from all around the world. Like turkey with beef filling~ And small sausages stuffed in large sausages, things like that~ Ah! As well as 100% fruit juice with condensed milk, you absolutely cannot miss that! And also—

Tiz: Wait a minute. I still don’t really understand….it’s a food festival?

Edea: Eh? No it’s not.

Agnes: Ah, I think it’s better if I explain it. The reunion festival is held once every four years. It’s held in the four cities, Eternia, Florem, Anchiem and Eisenberg. Through this festival, people can reunite with their family and friends who were separated for whatever reasons and confirm once more the importance of the bonds between them—

Ringabel: To gaze and embrace each other! And then—

Tiz: I think I kind of get the picture.

Edea: Anyway! It’s super interesting! You see street performers everywhere~ As well as stages for the dancers and singers! And besides these! Of course there would be! Street stores! Ahh~~~ just the smell is too much for me, hehehehehe.

Tiz: Is that so? Then I’ll just stay behind, the three of you can enjoy yourselves.

All but Tiz: Ehhh??

Edea: Wa….wait a sec, what are you saying Tiz?!

Agnes: Tiz, is something wrong?

Tiz: I…I better not go.

Edea: Eh??Why?! This is the first Reunion Festival since we met!

Agnes: Let’s go together okay….?Tiz…..

Tiz: Sorry. I’ll be fine.

Ringabel: Tiz! This is a festival to enjoy with important comrades! If it’s not the four of us, then it’s meaningless.

Edea: Why not? Do you have a reason for not going?

Tiz: Re…..reason?

Ringabel: That’s right, I won’t accept your rejection if there isn’t an appropriate reason!

Tiz: Reason…..That…because there’s a lot of things to wash……

Ringabel: Ah? We can wash those things anytime.

Tiz: I….I can’t decide on a hairstyle.

Edea: You always had that kind of hairstyle!

Tiz: There’s leftover bread! If it doesn’t get eaten, it’ll get mouldy…

Agnes: Then why not we just take it with us and eat it on the way?

Tiz: That’s too crass! Walking while eating and things like that.

Edea: Hey! What are you saying?! Tiz!

Tiz: Anyway, I am not going.

Ringabel: Hm….ah, this is really……Wellm it can’t be helped, then the three of us shall go without him.

Edea: Eh—? We can’t do that!

Agnes: Tiz….you don’t want to go no matter what?

Tiz: Yeah, sorry.

Ringabel: Well, we can’t force him if he doesn’t want to go. If we’re talking about a couple, then I will be with Edea, Agnes would be left behind then….? However, with Agnes beauty, there should be plenty of people who will invite her, many handsome young fellows will swarm towards her, I think.

Tiz: Eh? What did you say?

Ringabel: No, I didn’t say anything. I’m just talking to myself. Those will be a different kind from Tiz, men who are enthusiastic and know how to talk to women will continuously flock around Agnes and Agnes who’s bad at rejecting people……

Agnes: Wha…I’m not like that……

Ringabel: No, don’t speak so soon. Not just Agnes, women are just not good at handling that kind of aggressiveness.

Edea: I say—-

Ringabel: I said so before, during the reunion festival, men and women will gaze at each other passionately, embrace each other deeply and in a vigorous way—

Tiz: I’ll go!!

Edea: Eh?

Tiz: I’ll go too….The reunion festival.

Ringabel: That’s what you should have said earlier, Tiz! Just like I guessed, you don’t want Agnes to be snatched away by anyone~

Tiz: It’s not like that!! If something happens on the way and I’m not there to protect Agnes……

Agnes: Ah….Tiz….Right! Let’s go together!

Ringabel: Ok! Then let’s set off~ To Florem!

Edea: Eh? We’re not going to Eternia?

Agnes: Yeah….Eternia is the closest from here right?

Ringabel: Distance wise…that….in reality….well, even though Eternia is closer……But it feels like Florem is even closer!

Tiz: Huh? Wait, what are you saying, I don’t understand.

Agnes: The scale is the largest?

Edea: Eternia will definitely be the largest celebration.

Ringabel: Ah, but, during such a fine weather, if we specially go to a further off place, it will feel
more like a vacation? And…besides that….

Edea: Hehe, because Florem has many cute girls right~~

Ringabel: Eh? Eh~ Is it like that, I don’t know at all.

Edea: Stop acting! There’s no other reason other than this!

Ringabel: Then…then let us listen to everyone else’s opinion! Tiz? You also think that Florem’s celebration will be good right?! Right?!

Tiz: I….don’t really mind either way.

Ringabel: Edea, until now, which places have you gone to to participate in the Reunion Festival?

Edea: Um….last time it was Eternia.

Ringabel: Then this time, don’t you want to see a different place?

Edea: Well, I’ve never been to the one at Anchiem either.

Ringabel: Ughhh, Anchiem is too far~~ The only one that’s just right is Florem! It has to be Florem! I must be Florem! Even if it’s the other way round, it still must be Florem! Florem—Ha….ha…..ha…..

Edea: Alright, alright, I get it! Just calm down will you, really!

Ringabel: Uu~~~~

Tiz: Ringabel, your saliva……

Edea: Well, if I go to Eternia now, it’s a bit……

Agnes: Then, let’s head for Florem! Ok, Ringabel?

Ringabel: Ah…you finally understand me! Thank you! Florem!

Agnes: I’m Agnes.

Tiz: Eh, it’s really a lot more lively than usual!

Ringabel: Of course, this is the world’s largest pleasure street—Florem, and to add on, it’s about to hold the Reunion Festival, how is it, this kind of noise……excitement….the passion before the calm—You feel your passion escalating too right?!

Tiz: Uh…ah…I guess….

Edea: Speaking of which, Ringabel, do you have any impression of the Reunion Festival in Florem, how many times have you came here?

Ringabel: I don’t know…even though I feel like I should have participated in it before, but there’s no such record in this notebook. Oh! Over there! There’s a small mountain of delicious fruits piled over there!

Edea: Those are used for worship, not something to eat.

Tiz: For worship…….

Edea: Because our important ancestors will be here too.

Tiz: I see.

Ringabel: What is it, Tiz?

Tiz: No……it’s nothing…..Hey, what is that? Are they moving something?

Agnes: If it’s fireworks, they’re too big, what is that?

Edea: You’re absolutely right, those are fireworks. Those people are all pyro technicians. Tonight, at the moment it rolls over to the next day, in order to mark the start of the reunion festival, they will let loose the fireworks after the countdown.

Tiz: Such large fireworks must look really spectacular.

DeRosa: That’s right. Jan~ Men are people who must, at the night of festivities, make giant fireworks “boom”, high into the sky!

Ringabel: Ah……! You are!

DeRosa: Also, the next important matter, that’s right, that will be refined technique! Hehe, this uncle’s techniques—Even though it’s not good for me to say it for myself—are top notch, everyone enjoys it very much.

Edea: It’s the red old man!

DeRosa: Ah, what, all of you are drinking fruit juice? Youngsters nowadays are really as “healthy” as they used to be.

Agnes: Because we are all underaged.

DeRosa: You can’t get drunk on juice. How do you expect someone to take you home?

Agnes: Take you home?

Edea: We already said that we are underaged!

Agnes: Ha…..it’s no good, I still have feel physiological disgust for this sir.

DeRosa: Oh dear, then let me display technique that will be able to wash away such disgust cleanly.

Agnes: I ref….

Ringabel: Please do!

Tiz and Edea: Eh?!

Ringabel: Regarding this technique! Please teach it to me properly!

DeRosa: Boss, please give me and this young man here the regular. Ah, on the rocks. If it’s you,
it should be okay right?

Ringabel: Uh….Ah…..

DeRosa: Then, boss, you might as well bring me the whole bottle. Also, give this young man and these young ladies–

Edea: Hey, why are you sitting at the same table as us?!

Agnes: We did not give you the permission to.

DeRosa: A luxurious fruit platter

Edea: Mu!

DeRosa: As well as the Florem special Gelato set and–

Edea: He’s actually using food to bribe us, ughnyaaaaa!

Agnes: That’s right, I cannot tolerate sitting together with a man like you—

DeRosa: Also—it’s too troublesome to order them one by one, just give me one of each of all~~~ the items on the dessert menu.

Edea: Mrgrgr!

Agnes: Sigh

Ringabel: That, regarding the topic just now……

DeRosa: Hm? What were we talking about just now?

Ringabel: Technique, about that….

DeRosa: Ah, haha, well, the drinks are here, let’s drink to that. (Clinking of glasses), a toast.

Ringabel: (Drinks all at one go) Ugh—it’s too strong to stomach.

DeRosa: Listen well, when men are drunk, the reverse situation where they get taken home does happen as well. This is a countercurrent technique

Ringabel: Countercurrent……technique.

DeRosa: Ah, that’s right~ Of course, it won’t do if you really are drunk, if you’re drunk half conscious, you won’t be able to enjoy the conversation, during the critical moment, there will also be…well…

Ringabel: ?

DeRosa: So, you can only be buzzed or just pretend that you are drunk. This requires great acting skills!

Ringabel: Ohhh!! There’s actually such a way?! And then?!

DeRosa: You need to just a bit, slowly approach the girls at the same table

Ringabel: Uh huh.

DeRosa: You can’t be anxious, just a bit~

Ringabel: Uh uh.

DeRosa: And like that, on the couch, shift your rear closer there, do you understand… Not your feet, just shift over using your rear, bit by bit

Edea: Tiz……~~~

Tiz: Eh? What is it?

Edea: Are you awake, you haven’t said anything at all…

Tiz: I’m awake, it’s just that those two people are too deep in their conversation, I don’t even have the chance to cut in.

Agnes: Me too.

DeRosa: Ah, oh dear, then I apologise for that. Hm…..then now, let us play a game where everyone can take part.

Edea: Ha? Game? I’m busy eating you know—

DeRosa: Pick a lot, there’s a number written on top, do not let other people see it.

Tiz: Oh.

Agnes: Ah.

Edea: Uh….uu….

Ringabel: Uoh

DeRosa: O—kay, that’s done. Among us is someone who drawn a lot that has no number, who
would that be?

Ringabel: That would be me. Nothing’s on this lot.

DeRosa: Okay, that you are the emperor.

Ringabel: Emperor?

DeRosa: The emperor can give an order to a certain number, the other people then have to obey the emperor’s orders—no matter how embarrassing and shameful this order is.

Tiz: Eh??

Ringabel: (whispering) What’s the meaning of this….?!

DeRosa: You still don’t understand? That girl that you like also picked a lot.

Ringabel: Bu…But, I don’t know which number Edea picked!

DeRosa: That’s what makes this game interesting, to bet on this quarter chance of victory.

Ringabel: I see….! I get it! – (Clears throat) Uh, so, (Swallows) number two, nononono, number three, the one holding number three, kiss the emperor.

DeRosa: Oi oi oi oi oi, wait up.

Ringabel: Eh?

DeRosa: That’s too early. This is only the first round. You still have to wait a few more rounds.

Ringabel: Is….is that so…

DeRosa: Keep this in mind. Anxiety is a person’s downfall. First, start off with something light.

Ringabel: Un! Then, number three, drink the emperor’s drink.

DeRosa: Not bad at all, just like that.

Tiz: Eh? But Ringabel’s drink is……

DeRosa: What is it Tiz, are you scared?

Tiz: Not….nothing like that. Who’s number three?

Agnes: Not me.

Edea: Number three? That’s me.

Ringabel: Tuahaaaaaaaa, cough….cough….you see….I should have….choosing kiss would have been the best choice…

DeRosa: (Whispering) oh dear, I already told you not to be anxious—then, little miss, please
enjoy the taste of the drink the emperor has bestowed upon you.

Edea: Hmm? Is that really alright?

Agnes: No it’s not. Ringabel’s drink is alcoholic!

DeRosa: The emperor’s orders are—

DeRosa and RIngabel: ABSOLUTE!

DeRosa: Hehe, are you scared, little miss, hehehehehehe

Edea: I….I get it! (Drinks all at one go) Hwahh—cough, cough cough……

Agnes: Ah, Edea, are you alright?

Edea: Yeah, I’m alright, I’m alright, cough….hehehehe….

RIngabel: Okay, then let’s start the next round.

DeRosa: Draw a lot—

Everyone: Hm…. Who—is—the—emperor?

Edea: It’s me! Let me give the order!

DeRosa: Yes, just like that! Come, your majesty, give your order.

Edea: Then….number one! Give the emperor your drink!

Agnes: Um…Number one…would be?

Ringabel: It’s me!

Tiz: Eh???

DeRosa: Then your majesty, please enjoy your drink.

Edea: Mrgrgr…then I’ll take it. (Drinks in big gulps) Hwahh—

DeRosa: What great disposition.

Tiz: Will you be alright……

Edea: Ah…this shop, is pretty warm~~~isn’t it?

Tiz: No…it’s not, right Agnes?

Agnes: ….yeah, I don’t think it’s warm at all.

Edea: It’s not like that at all! It’s really hot! My whole body feels really hot!

DeRosa: Things just got interesting.

Ringabel: Do you feel feverish? You didn’t catch a cold or something, did you?

Edea: …..I wonder? Hey, Ringabel, why don’t you check!

Ringabel: Check….check what?

Edea: I’m asking you to check if I got a fever! Hurry up—!

Ringabel: Ah—ah, that….no, it doesn’t seem like you have a fever.

Edea: Of course you can’t tell if you use your hand! Forehead to forehead check! Hurry up!

Ringabel: Eh…no no, wait wait… the distance is a bit close….your face.

Edea: Hurry up—!!! Ah! Rather than the forehead, it’ll be easier if we use the face right?

Ringabel: Eh!

Edea: Faster! Ringabel!

Ringabel: I’m about to do that soon, just slow down….Uu…everyone’s watching you know.

Edea: He….hehe….ahha! Ahaha—What are you getting embarrassed about, hahahaha,
hahahaha

Ringabel: Oi! I won’t get embarrassed from such a thing!

Edea: Haha, hahaha, hahahaha, ha, what….I feel…kinda tired. (Falls)

Agnes: Edea….seems a bit strange.

Tiz: Ah! She’s drunk, isn’t she!

Agnes: Mou! Because you played this kind of game….and made her drink alcohol, that’s why it ended up like this!

Ringabel: It…it’s not what you think….Agnes.

Agnes: Eh?!

Tiz: What do you mean?

DeRosa: What Edea drunk was not alcohol.

Agnes and Tiz: Huh?

Ringabel: Just drink and you’ll know, here.

Tiz: (Drinks) Guh….cough…..cough…cough, what is this?! Cough cough.

DeRosa: Florem’s specialty, traditional organic rice Kurosu (Black Vinegar). CLOSE YOUR EYES.

Tiz: Kurosu? Kurosu and ice?

DeRosa: Because the fruity taste is the strongest when you add ice.

Tiz: Fruity?….then that would mean Edea…?

DeRosa: Thought what she drank was alcohol and got herself drunk.

Agnes:….such a thing can happen?

DeRosa: This is something that really happened right before our eyes, the human body really is
mysterious.

Edea: Hu….(gets up) Okay! Hurry up! Bring your face over!

Ringabel: Mu….Mr….Mrgrgr—!!
