[Lunatia's resident centaur lady is back on screen, and this time she's sharing the spotlight with... a table full of fresh vegetables? Still a bit dirty, fresh from the soil, good ol' vegetables... That Konoha bows over to start out.]

Hello, everyone! My name is Konoha... I'm a jinba, or a "centaur" if you want... I'm from Echigo in Japan, but lots of people say I'm from the past...

[She's just going to do the same introduction every time, counting off details on her fingers to make sure she gets all the good points... there's too many people on this thing and she doesn't check it enough to keep track... oops. Anyway-]

I wanted to ask people some questions about food! My husband and I have set up a little farmstead, but the crops are growing, um, way faster than they really ought to be... [we're just going to speed past the blush] and it's not like we actually have to work for money here, so I was thinking of not just taking the crops to market but... serving meals at the house? Or sending them to people elsewhere in the city? I don't know, but I've met a lot of people here who said they just eat food from the stores, and I know those are really convenient, but it can't be better than a home cooked meal, can it?


[Look at this big turnip! Isn't it healthy looking?! Don't you just want to eat it?? Konoha smiles, making the root vegetable dance around the screen.]

So... can I ask you some questions about what sort of food you like? Or what kind of things you miss from your home? Maybe what they make in your country with vegetables? If you give me some of your time, I'll send you some fresh ones as a "thank you"-

Promise!

[One last bow... and she and the turnip sign off.]

We can only hope. When we do, though, I’ve no doubt our friends and family will be glad to have us back.

[ After acknowledging that this also means saying goodbye to the friends she has here, Ophilia’s voice takes on a wistful note. ]

It would be nice if we could keep from adding to their troubles… but it would be dreadful were they to forget about us, would it not? If my sister forgot about me, I…

Well, I suppose that’s neither here nor there. I’m glad your husband remembers you, and even gladder still that he is here to take care of you.

Well, that’s certainly a relief then, isn’t it?

[ Goodness knows how long she would have spent stuck on that miserable thought! But that gets her mind jogging, and… ]

I do have to wonder, though: if your husband arrived here safe, will my sister, too…?

Goodness! What a lovely surprise that must have been!

Thank you for telling me about your husband, Konoha. It’s reassuring to think that I might one day be reunited with her, whether that happens here or back home.
