"Don't be sorry. It couldn't be helped. Thankfully it's over now. Well, for me that is."

Thinking about her friends put a genuine smile on her face. One, in particular, was who she owed her gratitude to most.

"Leona. I have her to thank most. Sadly for me, I don't believe she'll travel here, but it's probably for the best as she has her family to care for."

She took a moment to collect her thoughts on what to say about Leona and ended up with an endearing, yet amused, look.

"She is a very strong person, kind too. I got scolded a lot by her, heh." Chiyo scratched her cheek a bit in embarrassment. "Before I met her, I was hiding out in a forest for a while. Then, one day, she saw me and, for a month, kept coming to visit me, coaxing me to come out and live with her. She didn't know me, know what I was back then, but she extended a warm welcome to me. Her persistence left a deep impression.

"After that, I met her family and friends. Even though conditions were harsh, they made do with what they could. Honestly, I would've given up if not for them. Living with them made me realize how small my problems were, and Leona... Leona helped me keep my head on straight. She always looked out for me. In a way, she's a lot like you. You would have liked her, I'm sure. Confident and free... I kind of hope to be like her."
