"Where did you get this locket?" Greodio's question is, he can't believe he's gonna see that locket again.
The locket disappeared with his late wife. And no one can find it.
"Where did you get this locket?" The old man whose eyebrows were sharply bent.
"I found it on Mount Aranea precisely in Goa Aran" Greodio, grasping tightly the pendant.
"He was so beautiful while wearing this pendant" the old man's gaze glared. And tell the story of his past.
"Truly at that time he was only permission to search for medicinal herbs"
"He didn't come back, I kept waiting, and then I looked for him. Ask anyone, go crazy, and when I go to that mountain. I saw the book he always carried, lying in Goa's mouth." Long breath with weak tone. Sadness in his light.
"I kept searching in Goa and I didn't find it. Just a lot of cobwebs in there" Greodio rubbed the corner of his watery eyes. He was powerless, remembering the desperate and crumbling moments of the day.
"We found it among giant spider pieces." Elves saw Greodio's jaw tightening.
"Please" Fanta placed a tray containing a warm drink. He put it in front of Elves. Fanta looked at Elves, like the woman had met him. But I don't know if he forgot. Then he went back inside.
"I had expected, because I had not found my wife's body at that time, she vanished like the earth swallowed, I continued to pray until now if she still continued her life and died alone. But the truth is —" The old man was not strong crying.
"Oh poor Emmaku … "
"Emma I love you dear … "
"Emma .. Emmakuu .. "his tears broke with Greodio stroking the picture of his wife he always took with him everywhere.
All this time he did not want to think about the possibility of his wife having died, but he always prayed that his wife ran away from him and continued life without him. At least his wife is alive.
His feelings right now are very bad. All his assumptions had collapsed with the coming reality that he always brushed. His wife is eating wild animals.
Elves waited until Greodio calmed down. And after feeling pretty calm.
"Book?" Elves asked, Greodio sipped his drink. By wiping the rest of her tears.
"The book that Emma always carries, it's her father's potion book, Emm I'm very interested in potions, so I always allow her to find whatever plants she wants,"
"Roquet?" The whisper of Elves who was interested in the world of medicine was even more curious.
"She looks very charming while focusing on what she likes. So I always supported her,"
"But the fate of that fondness also separates us." Greodio walked up to the wooden cabinet, he picked something up there.
A book is in front of Elves. He wanted to open it. "May I see it?"
"Please open it, there's only a potion in it left by Emma's father, Gilberto, he's a healer in Efl's kingdom, maybe now Emmaku has been with his father there." Again there was a tone of sadness from the old man's lips.
"Gilberto the healer in the Elf Kingdom?" Elves pulled the book and opened it and saw the writing, there was also a picture of a young Gilberto with a little girl. Also sign at the bottom left of the book.
He took out his little book which also had the signature of the teacher. Match it and right. Gilberto's teacher is Emma's father.
He had heard the teacher had a family in another village and he had a daughter who was married.
"Ah I remember!" Fanta is approaching Elves. He held Elves' head. "You're the screeches. You're the prince who's always been that aloof"
"You know him Fanta?" Ask Greodio. Fanta nodded.
"Aunty used to take me to Granpa's, I saw her, you're a quiet kid who follows Granda everywhere, right?"
Become a healer with the potions and remedies he made. He saw how amazing it was when Gilberto could heal someone first. He was eventually shunned by his friends. He chose to follow Gilberto everywhere.
"You won't see us, because when we come you're in your kingdom for a party maybe I don't know, anyway you've cried because of the event you're not allowed to go out."
Elves clumsily did not understand that she had once behaved like that. He remembers crying because the bodyguard wouldn't let him out to Gilberto's.
But no one expected to see his behavior, let alone Gilberto there. So embarrasing.
"So you're Gilberto's student?" Elves moved her head. "Then you can have it, it might be more useful if you keep this book,"
"I have this," Greodio. Show me that locket. "Bring this with you, don't hesitate" he shifted the book to Elves.
"Fanta get a room ready, you can stay here, your trip is too far?"
"Not to bother, Greodio, I'm staying at Garden Angel."
"Garden Angel, Tony, you must have met him. He's the innkeeper" Greodio, downed his drink.
They went out of Greodio's shop to Elves' inn. Greodio invites Elves and Fanta to drink at the bar in the Garden Angel.
Elves could not resist. It was like meeting an old brother. Greodio was already drunk, but the old man insisted on continuing to drink at Toni's bar.
"Toni prepare the usual toni two, and give Fanta water only"
"You're a very stingy boss" replied Fanta. "Mr Greo, don't be like that, he might move to my place," after saying that Toni, the young man rolled his eyes at the blushing Fanta.
"It's better that I work with Toni" Fanta said.
"Yes well there you work with the adoration of your heart .. hnmm .. "Fanta smothers Greodio's mouth. And he laughed awkwardly, "Don't listen to this old man, he likes to bouncier"
"Old Man you're drunk, we have to go home" Fanta pulled Greodio's big body.
"No! I just arrived, look at this drinkit's still intact, you see this!" He took the glass of Elves that the man had not touched, he did not want to get drunk tonight.
"Get this drink on my bill" said Elves, and he hurriedly helped Fanta carry Greodio.
Toni just shook her head, the behavior of her guests like the storm. He returned struggling with the glasses that queue to be dried.

Ruve was bored, she waited for Gen who was soundly asleep. And the man snored loudly. Ruve decided to go out, she wanted to catch up with Elves to the night market. All breathing the cold night air.
Ruve took her coat. He went down the stairs, he heard a noise in the bar area of the inn.
Ruve found the figure of the old man blabbing and next to the old man she saw a familiar back for Ruve.
It's approaching. But he broke it. Found Elves close to a beautiful girl. Netra Ruve followed Elves and the girl who carried the man out of the bar.
Ruve followed where Elves would take the drunk old man. And found Elves inside one of the accessories stores.
Ruve waited outside, from where she stood she could see the shadow of a busy person pacing back and forth. Ruve waited for a long time until one of the lights in the side-most room was turned off.
Ruve guessed that it was the old man's room that Elves had left. Ruve tightened her coat, the night wind was getting more unfriendly. Ruve was still waiting for Elves to come out of the building in front of her.
