Have a moment, Orochi?
I live to serve, Lord Corrin.
I was wondering if you could tell me a little more about my mother.
Lady Mikoto—a remarkable woman. I'd be delighted to share my memories of her.
I barely had a chance to get to know my mother. So little time, because of what I...
Hmm. Anyway, could you share some stories about her?
Trust me when I say she wouldn't have blamed you for what happened. And she'd be saddened if you blamed yourself, Lord Corrin.
But yes, a story—a funny one! That's what we need.
She seemed so graceful. You know funny stories about her?
Oh, she was endlessly hilarious. One time, I recall catching her swimming— with her slippers on! She'd forget she had two chopsticks in hand—and eat with four! Some might say she was absentminded. Not I. She was a dreamer of dreams. So what if Lady Mikoto had her silly mishaps. We loved her for it.
Please, go on.
Once she sat cross-legged for so long, her legs went to sleep. And I am talking a DEEP sleep! She stood up before the court—and careened right into a fountain!
I wish I could have been there.
Er, at least to help her out of the water.
Your mother was truly unique, like a wise sage and an accidental jester. She had the sweetest voice, but the things she would say... Honestly, that dear woman—she really was a hoot.
Thanks, Orochi. That's exactly what I needed to hear right now.
