"Today, I saw something that reminded me of Celia. Tell me if she is here," Erich Winfield asked, his eyes brimming with hope. 

"As far as I know, we don't have anyone with that name around here in the palace," King Armen replied.

With this, the hope in Erich Winfield's eyes dimmed. "Is it so?"

"Hmm," King Armen nodded. 

"Then how come your Third Princess has those elixir pills?" Erich Winfield asked.

"Elixir pills?" King Armen repeated, puzzled by the strange term.

Erich Winfield nodded and explained, "Those are miraculous medicines that allow anyone who takes them to heal faster. They are enchanted to contain holy energy within."

"Where did you see it? How could you say my daughter has them? You didn't even see her yet."

"That King of Megaris brought it to me and asked me to give it to his personal knight. Upon asking where he got it, he said it belonged to the Third Princess," Erich Winfield explained.
