[Ezra Dante Rudveldt. Rudveldt is a family I’ve never even heard of before.

When asked where he came from, he gave a cryptic answer:

‘I don’t know either. I woke up because the spring dried up.’

* Excerpt from Love in a Ruined World]

Woke up because the spring dried up, huh?

‘Wait, a spring? If it’s a spring…’

This was actually the most puzzling part. Hague, Notium, and Brunel were all names of places, but only the third path was referred to as “the spring.”

“We need to dig out the underground passage quickly.”

“Suddenly an underground passage?”

At my mumbling, Nox looked at me with a puzzled expression.

I realized then that I’d mentioned the underground passage without explaining anything to them and gave an awkward laugh.

“Well, we do need to dig out the underground passage eventually.”
