''Shii...? You had a sister?'' You lean out of your window as you whisper for some much-needed fresh air. The inside of your house remains illuminated, its open windows let you catch glimpses of Shigeko and Seyraphal sitting together.
<span class="mu-i">She wouldn't lie or omit something like this. What kind of curse can cause something so terrible?</span>
Would you also forget this Helen after reading about her?
''Let's finish this.'' The strange emotional exhaustion that's been plaguing you is gone.

That guy Thibault goes into the monster village once a week to do...things. They don't like it, but nobody can stop him. They go into the bathhouse, the Mamonos don't wanna tell me more.
So I'll start telling people about his evil. He did strange things inside the basement of his manor, now he's going out at night, forcing people into the bathhouse? Evil.
I'll see it with my own eyes soon enough. For now, a knight needs to fight evil by letting people know.
Wasn't going to be easy, I know. Nuns and priests don't like it when I talk bout Thibault. They are not so kind anymore. Nobody really believes me. I won't stop.
Remember Helen. I will write notes in my pockets.

<span class="mu-i">So...Olin spread the rumors about Thibault? The women themselves hinted to him about his nightly activities. Now the mercs took it over? What in the Good Father Eye is going on inside that bathhouse?</span>

<span class="mu-s">I found a master!</span> His name is Aryel, he won the militia tournament, dunno where he will go next, but I gotta convince him to stay here. I need to become strong against the Face of Evil. His stick looks cool. What is it called?
Remember Helen. Helen Takara.

The next pages disclose the same information you've learned from the boy reluctant master. Olin loses some diligence with his writing because of the training completely tiring him out, but despite increasing frustration without having any swords in his hands, he never mentions stopping. His goal to ''remember Helen'' becomes a mantra. Emulating the heroes of old starts to shape his mind into an obsession.

Big fight today, hands are good tho, so don't hurt too much writing.
Chapel is closed now, been some kind of magical thing going on in the city, whatever. Give me more time to spend in the village.
Bigger guys came to see me after headnun Eni told us today was it for now. Told me to stop speaking about Thibault, said no.
Saying I fought would be a lie, got beat.
Mom is worried; she is busy with the Mamonos, the herbs, and learning how to be a doctor. Asked me about my troubles.
A knight needs to fight, but a knight does not make his mom sad either. I will protect you, mom.
The 13 ran away often in the past. Guess that will be my valor for now.
Remember Helen Takara.
