>>5440069The first half of last day at Silverport is spent revisiting the entertainment district and trading vessels.
The two spend a few hours in the recreational potion stores, finally trying out the potions.
After experiencing the lucid dream state from the potions first hand, it’s easy to see why so many would like to stay in false world for hours. This.. freedom, unbound by how reality behaves, the lack of responsibilities or work…
But this fantasy cannot last forever.
It’s nice to not think about sometimes, but there’s no escape from reality. Pine won’t be in condition to take part in grand adventures or plots in a decade or so due to her health.
Of course, with Jess by her side, with Noi and those two kids as her friends, and the people of Red Winter as her allies, she won’t be alone in her future pursuits. Besides, as the assault on the hospital has proved, she could be part of a few smaller scale plots.
As Jess and Pine look at the ocean filled with sea serpents from a trading vessel’s restaurant, they feel a sense of fulfillment.
They’ll miss this place, and it’s unsure if this town will still be the same when they do visit again, but Jess has fulfilled his dream of visiting a beach and seeing the more magical parts of the world while Pine has accepted a farewell to her old life.
Before this visit ends, they would like to commission a painting.
While Pine is decent at drawing, she's not able to capture the finer details.
>>A painting of the viscous, transparent liquid in a flask.The liquid in flask is what started her journey and made her life what it is today.
>>A painting of Pine and Jess at the beachThe first time she sat that the beach at sunset was when she was talking to Zeal and Cris, on her first visit to Silverport.
It’s a fitting end to her journey.
>>A painting of Zeal and Cris as serpent scholarsPine still has paintings of those kids as reference.
Those two kids meant a lot to her.
Perhaps they’ll go down a similar path to hers. Perhaps they’ll succeed. Perhaps they’ll fail. But at least, they’ll be memorized.
>>A painting of all of her allies Pine still has paintings of everyone as reference.
Jess. Makari. Fern. Zeal. Cris. Noi. Bow. Sira.
They all mean a lot to her.
Even if she somehow forgets, at least this painting will remind her of them.
