["‘Come with me,’ he said. ‘Come with me to battle, my love. Stay with me when battle is done. Laugh with me, and walk with me.'"

For the third week in a row, there are tears in her eyes when she wakes up, but this time it's a different emotion that's prompted them. It's incredibly bittersweet, there are so many things she still wishes were different, but... For the first time in weeks, she can honestly say that she feels happy, even full of hope, despite everything that's happened.

All day, after emerging from her room, her demeanor seems cheerful, a calm and confident air around her. While making breakfast in the kitchen in the morning, she can even be heard humming under her breath, a smile on her face. After that, she heads to the art studio, and spends most of the day inside, sketching a variety of subjects. Most of them are landscapes, but there are portraits as well (including drawings of the people who passed away recently). When she's done, she takes those to the dining hall, setting them near the candles.

Towards the evening, she retires to her room and spends the evening there.]
