"Commander..." Daiyan stands in the doorway, elegant luggage bag in hand. "I hope I am not imposing too much. I couldn't wait any longer, so I snuck ahead of Jiangyu and Zhaohui... I just had to see you as soon as possible."

She's just as beautiful and graceful as ever, even standing there in awkward silence. You can't help but wonder if Persica ever gave her the memories of the copy of her consciousness that you saved in the Magrasea server, or if she was even told about the risk you took back then to save her other self.

"The dreams I couldn't fulfill back then- isn't now the perfect chance to pursue them again?"

When your eyes stray to a familiarly-shaped box over her shoulder, she smiles and nods. "The Guzheng has always been by my side, it feels as though it can understand my thoughts. Now that we've reunited, Commander, what melody will we compose? I look forward to it." Her eyes grow distant. "To play music so sweet that jade would shatter and the phoenix would cry... If I could ever do that, it would be today."

She trails off, her eyes focusing on your meager rations. Her beautiful features twist into a frown. "I know that you are the Commander and don't always have time for proper meals, but all this fast food may be a bit too crude... I can't bear to watch you eat your meals so perfunctorily. Not only are you being irresponsible to your health, you are also disrespecting food. If you are too busy, I will prepare food that can keep for a while for you. This can't go on any longer. ... So, what do you say? You really should take better care of yourself. Many rely on you."
