That frame... brings me back... If I may, would you mind letting me take a better look at that? Ahh... Truly... even though the years have long passed... You really are her, aren't you? Your Royal Highness... it is truly... my greatest honor... for my eyes to behold you once more before I pass. Long ago, during King Dahad Seric's reign, I served as his court painter. While the rumors speak of my untimely death after painting a cursed painting... It was King Dahad himself who spared my life in secret.
