Lady Sarina
(I’ve got knowledge of the other world. I remember everything from my past life. So joke’s on you, Author. I’m living the way I Want.)
Ruby [Maid]
Milady, which gown shall it be today? The Garden of Lys, or would you prefer the Sunlit Grace?

Lady Sarina
(It was an accident. A moment too fast to hide.)
Lady Sarina
(But she didn’t ask. She just bowed her head… and vowed to take what she saw to her grave.)
Lady Sarina
(Even after that—she never treated me differently.)
