The next morning, I headed over to Cliff’s laboratory.

Cliff’s research was focused on the development of magical implements—specifically, ones capable of counteracting curses.

He’d insisted that I was welcome to drop in on him at any time, but whenever I dropped by, I made sure to listen carefully at the door. Depending on the noises I heard from inside, I sometimes had to turn around and leave.

Today, there didn’t seem to be anything problematic going on in there, so I knocked on the door.

“Come in. The door’s open,” called a voice from within.

I stepped into the laboratory to find Elinalise sitting by the far window. She was resting her cheek on her hand and gazing out at the street, her long curly hair glimmering in the sun.

The woman sure was picturesque when she wasn’t talking. But I knew her too well to be impressed—she was probably thinking unspeakably dirty thoughts.

“Are you the only one home, Elinalise?”

“That’s right.”

Cliff was very busy these days, and hadn’t been making much progress on his research. We’d been talking for months about finding the time to improve his existing prototypes using the stones of absorption, but it still hadn’t happened yet.

“Cliff’s off working on the wedding preparations again.”

That right there was one of the major reasons. Cliff and Elinalise were getting married soon.

“I keep offering to help out,” she continued, “But he’s determined to do it all himself.”

“Try not to hold it against him. Men can be prideful about these things, you know?”

Before we left for the Begaritt Continent, Cliff had promised Elinalise he’d marry her when we returned. When we made it back, though, he hadn’t even begun to prepare yet. That wasn’t his fault by any means. We’d told him we might be gone for two years, but we ended up making it back in six months. It would have been odd to find him ready and waiting.

However, Cliff was the kind of guy who took his promises seriously. With remarkable focus and stubbornness, he’d gotten everything arranged over the last few months. First and foremost, he’d found them a place to live, bought the furniture, and planned out everything they needed to move in. For the most part, he handled all of this on his own, although I’d helped out a bit with the real estate hunt. Unlike me, he wasn’t interested in buying a house; he’d eventually settled on renting an apartment in the Student District. If it ever got too cramped for them, he figured they could just move to a bigger place.

I was a bit surprised by that attitude, considering Cliff was something of a show-off by nature. But on the other hand, he wasn’t swimming in cash at the moment, so it was perfectly reasonable. He couldn’t have purchased a pricey home. Not without financial help from Elinalise, at least. I knew she was pretty well-off.

“Oh, and on that note… Congratulations, Elinalise.”

They were in the final stages now. The wedding was scheduled for next month. Something about Elinalise wearing
