Lucien: "Never go anywhere near there. Got it?"

 

The next day…-.

 

Servant: "Lady OO, do you have a moment?"

 

There was a knock at the door, along with the humble request from the servant.

 

I wondered if something was wrong as I opened the door and waited for the servant to speak…

 

Servant: "To be truthful, I wanted to discuss something with you about Lord Lucien… He seems to trust you a great deal Lady OO and…"

 

Is something the matter with Lucien…?

 

The servant hesitated, a sorrowful look on their face, and it moved my heart.

 

OO: "…tell me if there's something I can do."

 

Servant: "Thank you very much…would you mind coming with me?"

 

I went with the servant and left Lucien's castle…-.

 

The place the servant led me to was where Lucien had said I must never go.

 

This place feels kind of ominous…

 

Before me stretched coils of sturdy barbed wire, and beyond was a thickly overgrown forest with trees of a strange black color, as if they'd been burned.

 

Servant: "Beyond this point are the forbidden grounds. If one were to enter…the miasma that permeates the area would turn our white wings to black."

 

OO: "…! Does that mean that Lucien came here and…?"

 

Servant: "…yes. Everyone detests and fears those black wings, and views them as unlucky. Those affected by the miasma, and those born naturally… The reasons are varied, but everyone agreed to drive them into the recesses of the country where they now live."

 

OO: "…!"

​

Mother: "W-we’re going sweetie. It's dangerous."

 

Town Child 2: "Ah! It's the Cursed Black Wings!"

 

Town Child 3: "Bad stuff is gonna happen! You get outta here!"

​

So that's why…everyone acted that way towards Lucien…

 

Servant: "For that reason, Lord Lucien has been confined to his castle…"

 

OO: "So that's what happened…but why are you telling me?"

 

It was then.

 

Lucien: "What are you doing!?"

 

A voice, raised in anger, cut through to me from behind.

 

Servant: "Lord Lucien…!"

 

Lucien: "I couldn't find you or OO, and I thought you couldn't possibly be here, but I came anyway and…"

 

Lucien's face was twisted in anguish.

 

Lucien: "OO, I told you to never come anywhere near this place."

 

OO: "…"

 

Servant: "Please forgive me sire! She came at my invitation. Everyone in this country turns a blind eye to the problem of the forbidden grounds… That's why I thought to have someone from another royal family look at it…I thought if the daughter of Träumere said something, then…-"

 

Lucien: "…!"

 

 Lucien bit his lip.

 

Lucien: "...the rumors about the black wings are not something that can be changed. Don't get her involved in this!"

 

Lucien's voice was filled with anger and I…-.

Lucien: "…that's enough. I'll escort her back. You go on ahead."

 

Servant: "…my deepest apologies."

 

Watching the servant as they left with hunched shoulders, Lucien let out a deep sigh.

 

Lucien: "…this place has nothing but bad memories for us. Besides, it's dangerous even for those without wings."

 

Us…?

 

Lucien: "…it's nothing. We're going."

 

OO: "Alright…I really am sorry."

 

The dark, dark… dark shadows of the forest trees fell on Lucien's wings and somehow made them even darker.

 

Seeing that, I was overwhelmed with a sense of helplessness.

 

OO: "…isn't there anything I can do?"

 

Lucien: "…!"

 

At my question, Lucien seemed about to say something, but then shook his head with a gloomy expression.

 

Lucien: "…no, it's fine. I want to hurry and get away from here."

 

OO: "…Lucien…"

 

He started walking to get away, then stopped suddenly.

 

Lucien: "…that's weird."

 

OO: "Eh…?"

 

Lucien: "The border of the grounds should be further back from the barbed wire…"

 

Looking closely, I saw the blackened trees were just barely crossing beyond the barbed wire, as if they were encroaching their way towards where we stood.

 

Lucien: "Does this mean…the area is spreading?"

 

Lucien looked deep into the forest, his voice quavering.

 

Lucien: "Come here…"

 

OO: "Eh…-"

 

There was a thrumming sound, and his black wings folded around me as if trying to protect me from the discolored trees.

 

Lucien: "Why…?"

 

Then Lucien tightly grasped my hand as if he were frightened.
