Sprite Kingdom
For once, Sprite Kingdom is actually peaceful...
......
Why do you keep following me?
Hmm? I've heard that voice before... Rollett?
Sprite Kingdom, Back Alley
Hello? I know you're th—Rollett? Rollett, that's you, right? Hello, you there?
Why, who do we have here?! If it isn't Master!
Haha. Bonjour!
O lone carriage driver crossing the great circus we call this world!
It's been a while since we last met, hasn't it?
Yeah, it has. Have you been well?
Just drifting along, as you can see.
You know... living up to my name as a traveling magician, in search of amusing little incidents!
Still the same as ever, I see. I heard something coming from here earlier—what were you doing back here?
The thing is... a minor issue popped up, so we were just having a deep heart-to-heart...
A minor issue? A heart-to-heart?
Hmm, well, it is exactly as you see...
There's this mysterious ticket thing floating next to me!
It popped out of nowhere two days ago and has been hovering around me ever since.
But for some reason, it doesn't seem to be visible to anyone else.
So it has been quite the dilemma.
I thought talking to it might help me figure out what it wants...
Have I finally lost my mind, or has the world gone mad enough to make something like this happen?
Could it be a letter of warning from the world tree?
Or perhaps an invitation to the Weekend Farm?
A warning from the world tree? An invitation to the Weekend Farm?
It's still hard to follow along with the complicated way you speak...
But based on your description, you're totally talking about a Yearning!
Ah, Master. So you believe me? That this ticket fluttering around me exists?
Yes! Of course I do.
That's a relief to hear!
At first, I didn't realize it was a Yearning since I thought someone was using magic to make it float.
That golden ticket must be Rollett's Yearning, right?
Hey, could you read what's written on that golden ticket?
Hmm, I've already had a look at what's written there...
But since you're asking, Master, I shall read it once more.
"Rollett's Golden Ticket!"
"You are cordially invited to Rollett's Show, the pinnacle of entertainment in Elias!"
"The greatest show—one that leaves elves in awe, sprites delighted, and witches lining up!"
Elves in awe...? Sprites delighted...? Witches lining up...?
On the back, it reads: "An opportunity like this doesn't come around every day!"
That confirms it. That ticket really is Rollett's desire.
Explain what a Yearning is before Rollett spirals further into confusion.
Rollett, the thing is... other Apostles in Elias are experiencing a similar phenomenon.
Oh? Others are going through the same sort of thing?
Did someone truly scatter these magical tickets around as a prank?
Not exactly. Each Apostle experiences something similar, but it's also different.
Everyone has their own unique wishes, desires, and hopes, right?
Those inner desires are taking shape in the real world. That's what this is.
Master gives her examples by explaining the Yearnings of a few other Apostles.
So you're saying other Apostles are going through something similar.
From what I can see, your desire is to become the host of the ultimate entertainment show.
And that very desire took shape as this golden ticket.
The host of the ultimate show upon the stage known as the world...
Perhaps I, too, was meant to be the star of this stage.
Hmm... The more I look at it, the more I adore it. A golden ticket, huh?!
Thank you, Master. I feel like I have a goal now.
I shall become the ultimate entertainment host and issue golden tickets of my own!
Great! What a wonderful goal!
Will you continue to watch over me until that day comes?
Of course!
Haha! Where there is an audience, an actor must perform with everything they have!
And should I ever issue a true golden ticket... you shall receive the very first one.
Sounds great! I look forward to it!
