She was holding him tight. He could feel the warmth of her body, and her heart pounding anxiously against his back. Regis’s own heart responded in turn, beating so hard that he worried it might suddenly break into pieces.

“A... Al... Alti...?”

He could feel everything through her thin silk negligee.

“No.”

“H-Hey... Come on, now... We’ve just spoken about this...”

“I know... I know... You’re going to the capital out of necessity. And it’s crucial that you go... for both the Empire and me.”

“Precisely.”

“But...”

“But...?”

“Can’t you at least stay here until morning? If you’re sleepy, we can share the bed.”

That makes it even harder for me to stay!

“Wait, wait, wait!” Regis stammered. “What’s gotten into you all of a sudden?!” It went without saying that he was beyond flustered.

“I mean... it feels like I might never see you again.”

“I intend to return after a month at most, so I’m not going to be away for long. You’re making this a lot harder than it needs to be...”

“Will you really come back?”

“Of course.”

“Really, really?”

“Such is my intention... And I’ll be sure to write.”

“Then I will too! I’m not very good when it comes to letters, but I’ll do my best! I’ll send you one every single day!”

“Every single—?! No, that’s, uh... quite a lot of work...”

“Regis! If you don’t send me letters back, then I won’t speak to you ever again!” Altina shouted, tightening her grip around him even more. What had started as a soft embrace had now turned into the torso equivalent of a stranglehold.

“Ow, ow! Okay, okay! I’ll just think of it like a daily report. Then I’m sure I could manage one a day!”

“They’re not reports!”

“Letters! Yes, letters! Daily!”

“That’s a promise, okay?”

“What about you? Will you be able to write one every day?”

“I’ll do my best.”

“I see. Well, I’m looking forward to it.”

Altina loosened her grip on Regis, though she remained pressed against his back.

“Snff... Regis... Just a little more... Okay...?”

She started to sob once again, her body trembling as she struggled to choke back the tears.

Regis could do nothing but stand in place. His eyes once again wandered out the window to the night sky, crossed by the spectrum of the Milky Way.
