We did find the guestroom, but there was no sleep in my eyes.
I couldn't.

Around midnight Alisa started talking.
This was one of the larger guest rooms with two beds. Ve and Alisa shared one, while Me and Biteria, the other one.
Biteria was fast asleep and I had no idea if Ve was sleeping or not. It didn't matter though.

Your first priority should be to survive and beat the emperor, then to figure out a way to win. And then think about all this." Alisa paused for a moment. Her words weren't forced and she was speaking frankly. "Besides, we all know you love the elf. So, even asking that you think about us instead… is just wrong."
"I-"
