Sieg, Totori, and Carlyle have gathered to work on their new bridal jewelry brand. While Sieg and Totori are worried about which gems to choose for the jewelry, Carlyle asks them “Why don’t you try imagining the form of the bride?” They each begin to imagine the bride in their own way…-.

In a studio filled with an ambient calm, the voices of three princes echoed…-.

Sieg: “What about using these jewels?”

Totori: “Oh, that’s quite a finely cut amethyst.”

Carlyle: “Its beauty is undeniable but…isn’t it a little too large for the wedding dress?”

Totori: “Well, then let’s try some other things to see how they go together.”

Their hands moving eagerly, the three put forth idea after idea.

The reason the three of them had gathered was to use jewels from the Land of Jewels and launch a new brand of bridal jewelry…-.

Sieg and Totori were to handle the first collection, and so they asked for the cooperation of Carlyle, an outstanding craftsman.

Sieg: “This is pretty difficult. I keep coming up with all sorts of different things when it comes to people and their wedding ceremonies.”

Totori: “Yes…it’s quite a problem. We apologize for taking up so much of your time Prince Carlyle.”

Carlyle: “Don’t worry about me. I’m enjoying listening to the two and your experienced discussions on gemstones. However…I know. As you can’t come to a decision on the stone, I wonder if you should try imagining the bride.”

Sieg & Totori: “The bride…?”

Carlyle: “When I’m stuck, I try to get a concrete image of the person I’m making something for, and then I can come up with a good idea. Like now, what kind of woman would I want to give this jewelry to… How about trying it?”

At Carlyle’s suggestion, Totori and Sieg seemed to think it over as their eyes roamed the room.

Sieg: “A kind gracefulness, and a sublime beauty…a maiden, like a diamond.”

Totori: “For me…I’d want to give it to someone sweet and cheerful like the sun.”

Sieg: “That’s a little unexpected. I didn’t know that’s how you thought Totori.”

Totori: “Haha, really?”

Totori’s response had made Sieg blink, but Totori evaded the topic with a gentle smile.

Perhaps accustomed to that kind of easy-going response, Sieg didn’t push the matter further.

Totori: “Thank you Prince Carlyle. Because of your suggestion, I have a better idea of what kind of jewels to use.”

Carlyle: “Glad I could help. I’m usually shut up in my workshop alone…so it’s kind of refreshing to have conversations like this while working.”

Carlyle’s words were matter-of-fact as he spoke, but there was a glint of enjoyment in his eyes.

Sieg: “Is there a person you have in mind to give the jewelry to Prince Carlyle?”

Carlyle: “… …I suppose someone I care for dearly, like my kittens, and one who is honest and true.”

The jewels sparkled warmly, as if watching over the wishes of the princes.

With the image of a lovely lady painted in their minds, the princes worked diligently on crafting their jewelry.
