[ Video ] Princess in the Tower

[avis_immortalis]

[ With the blizzard hitting Somarium, well... there's no way Gwendolyn wants to be out in that weather. Besides... she couldn't find the appropriate ingredients to make a Warmer potion, anyway. So, unable to engage in her usual alchemy, the Dreamberry took opportunity of this and clicked on, only to show a frilly pile of gorgeous dark blue and

[and he's just going to be looking at her.]

Princess Gwendolyn, where are you?

[because that doesn't look like a very good place to take shelter in, really.]

[ video ]

[avis_immortalis]

Oh! Sir Tybalt! [ There's a pause, and she looks up at the airplane she's tucked under. ] I'm... on the floating mountain. There was a building with metal birds inside, but I think they're sleeping.

[armisonant]

A metal bird...? [he has no clue what she's talking about but he gives a slight shake of the head.]

Is that where you plan on staying?

[ video ]

[avis_immortalis]

Well...

Until I can manage to procure a different arrangement, yes.

[ video ]

[armisonant]

From our conversation last, I take it you will be wanting to stay on the mountain despite the harsh weather conditions.

[ video ]

[avis_immortalis]

Yes. The altitude pushes back the heavy air that is lower to the ground.

[ video ]

[armisonant]

But isn't the snow and temperatures worse up there?

[ video ]

[avis_immortalis]

Well, of course, but... [ And she leaned into the video feed a little. ]

That is why I need a habanero!

[ video ]

[armisonant]

[she did mention that.]

And what is a habanero?

[ video ]

[avis_immortalis]

A pepper, used in Warmer potions...! I could make one if I just had a habanero; it would keep me warm for a very long time.

[ video ]

[armisonant]

I've never heard of it before. If you were to find one here, would you still be able to make it? Or would it have to come from your world?

[ video ]

[avis_immortalis]

It would work, if I used my Psypher Spear.

...I could make you one, as well, Sir Tybalt.

[ video ]

[armisonant]

Thank you for the offer, but it won't be necessary. You should give them to those who may need it more.

But if you tell me what this "habanero" looks like, I could see if I can find it here in the stores.

[ video ]

[avis_immortalis]

Well...

Its red, like a rose... ah, like a rose heated by the flames of war. Its not too big, and, shaped like the tip of a spear. Its very, very spicy!

[ video ]

[armisonant]

A red pepper...all right. I'll see what I can find. [if anything he could ask the grocers if they had ever even heard of it.]

[ video ]

[avis_immortalis]

My regards, Sir Tybalt. You are... very kind to have helped me thus far.
