Miri changed the subject dramatically:
- Do you know a guy named Kodorro?
- Of course," surprised the novice. - Everyone in Randu knows each other. We are not so many, and we live under the same roof for fourteen years.
Mirielle whistled. Yes, it's no wonder they had "an incomprehensible way of thinking". Here, anyone will go crazy and start thinking incomprehensibly. Are they going to keep her locked up, too, without seeing the sunlight?
Miri also held on to this thought. Darschel's not going to help her here, she has to scout at Arelato's. After all, only he disposes of her fate from now on. It is up to him to decide whether she sees sunlight or stops in a stone dungeon...
- Is Codorro also a novice? - She asked.
- The Junior Master. Have you seen him before?
- Aha! He came to me once but never came back. I wonder why. He is cute and very beautiful!
- Otherwise!" Shel giggled. - Half the girls are crazy about him!
"And the other half is by Monsieur Arelato? - Miri barely survived. She laughed out loud:
- And you?
- No, I have a boyfriend!
- Wow, you have guys in the Order, too?!
- Well, of course! Randu is not practiced chastity and abstinence. We are people, though we are magicians!
Is that so? Miriel did not think at all about this side of the life of magicians Randu. I wonder if Arelato also has a girlfriend?
No, it's still good that Darschela doesn't see her thoughts! If she doesn't lie. The fairy asked out loud:
- Cute at least? Cuter than Kodorro?
The girl laughed widely:
- At the amateur! You know, Miri, there are men and... men! Everyone chooses for themselves. I'll introduce you somehow. You don't have to be jealous, do you like Codorro?
Oh, you don't have to be jealous at all. Whoever likes Miri, Monsieur Arelato is unlikely to let him get close. As soon as Miri said she wanted to talk to Codorro, he became dry and cold. I wonder if she will see him again now?
- Codorro liked it, but I still have a fiancé for Remidea. And the fairy is faithful once to the chosen man.
- How touching! - Shel sighed admiringly. - I wish you, Miri, to meet your fiancé soon!
Once again, Mirielle tried her best not to express the whirlwind of angry feelings she had in response to Darschel's wishes. She wished, you see. And her unsightly monsignor Arelato may not be going to let the prisoner go home to her fiancé. Will Miri Dale see her and her family?
- Let's start the lesson, Shel," she said quietly. In the end, the damned monsignor promised to let go, if she learns his speech and tells everything he knows about the fairies ...
Darschelle stayed in Miriel's bedroom for hours. In the midst of the lesson, Mephalo rolled up a dinner cart for two. Showing her new skills, the fairy greeted her, thanked her and said goodbye. Mephalo blurred her white-toothed smile and corrected her pronunciation mistakes with Darschela.
Then, after letting the maid go, the girls began to eat on both cheeks, and Darschelle, with her mouth full, told Miri what they were chewing.
Merkanka left when her eyes were sticking together and she was yawning in her mouth. Darschelle almost fell asleep across her bed.
After seeing her off, Miri pulled the door. Locked. Darschel was holding on to her like a real friend... But I didn't forget to lock the door. So, friendship is friendship, and service is service. Miri shouldn't have forgotten about it.
