 The encounter was prescient.

 Not us, but traces of our life in the forest, not a few of them. At the very least, I could sense that someone was living nearby.

 Small, small traces. But I knew that there was someone alive.

 When I learned this, I honestly felt uneasy. Remembering the loss of Mr. Athos, I wondered if the people I loved would disappear again. I was afraid that I would not be able to see them again. I was afraid of that.

I thought, "...... At least they wouldn't be from the kingdoms of Fairytorov and Migga. Both kingdoms had declared this place to be an uncivilized land. Then, I honestly can't imagine what kind of people who seem to live here are like. I hope it's someone I can deal with."

 Mr. Lan said something like that. The kingdom of Fairytorov and the kingdom of Migga, the human countries I was involved with. I wonder if it is true that there are no people from those countries in this forest. Who is here?

 I think I'm getting better at talking now that I've arrived at the lake and have a break from my life on the run. Talking a lot has become a part of my routine. Little by little, I think things are getting better. Many things are.

 Life by the lake is reasonably stable. There is a lot of uncertainty, but I think everyone is smiling a little more. I wish that everything could be better, that everything could be protected, but I am filled with desire like that. I wish everything could be better, I wish everything could be protected, but I am filled with such desires. I know that. I know that, so I must not be in a hurry. It's tempting to be impatient, but I don't think we should be. We should be happy that things are getting better little by little. That's what I think.

 There is someone living nearby. Despite my anxiety about this, I was having a peaceful time. That, someone made contact with me.

 At that time, I was with my two baby griffon siblings, Lema and Luma. I had been told to stay close to everyone, partly because I still didn't have a proper grasp of this surrounding area, so I was by the lake with them, staring at the water.

 The lake, I had never seen it before I came here. Big water. I looked into it and I could see my face in it. I could see a few fish, and tree branches falling on the surface of the water, and it was kind of magical to watch.

 I see adults dismantling their hunted catch. Most of the adult griffons are out in the vicinity or with the adults. Some of them are here, though.

 I tell them to take it easy. But that doesn't mean that there aren't any toothless griffons here. To be honest, I'm a bit worried about that. That's why I repeatedly told them to run away if it looks like it's really impossible. I would be sad if the griffons were gone.

 The two animals responded cheerfully. I try to talk to the griffons and seafo more often. Until now, they have been comfortable in silence, so I have often just laid back and not talked to them.

 Lema and Luma shouted. I didn't know what they were talking about. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see the adults a short distance away looking behind me in surprise.

 There they were, people I had never seen before. They were not human. But they were not the ...... beastmen I was accustomed to seeing. They do not have the ears and tails of beasts. What caught my attention were their ears. Ears that are longer and pointier than a human's. I had learned about them in class with my grandmother. Maybe they are a race called elves. I understood it when I saw it.

I was also afraid. "---- We have lived in this land since ancient times. You are the ones who came later. That is why we have come to talk to you. Why are you beastmen here ...... with your humans and others? Let us hear your answer.
