Alright, we're done with training! Let's go!
|
Jamil
Jamil
|
Wait, we still have stuff... Sigh.
|
|
Grim
Grim
|
Whoa~ Everywhere you look has a golden sparkle to it... Completely opposite from Ramshackle Dorm, y'know.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Is it that surprising?
My dad did give a small donation to remodel the dorm when I got accepted but...
|
Grim
Grim
|
Just how rich are you!? Are you some kind of prince like Leona!?
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
The Asim family isn't royalty, so I'm not a prince, but some of my family is related to the royal family.
|
Grim
Grim
|
Asim...? Wasn't your name Al-Asim?
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
"Al" is an old word from the Land of Hot Sands that means "son".
Family names are passed down by one's ancestors so... They said that all boys born into the family will be called "son of..."
My ancestor was "Asim" and since I'm a boy I get "Al" and... Since my name is Kalim Al-Asim, it means "Kalim, son of the Asim family".
|
Grim
Grim
|
Woah... I've never even thought about the origins behind names before.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
It's hard when you're not familiar with it? You can just call me Kalim!
|
Choice 1: There's students here from all over.
|
Choice 2: That's something you only learn by meeting people...
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
You should come visit me in the Land of Hot Sands sometime! We'll take good care of you.
|
Grim
Grim
|
I bet your house is as big as a castle.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Not really. We only have about 100 servants.
|
Grim
Grim
|
100 is way more than enough! I've only got my one minion.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
It's because I've got more than thirty younger siblings.
There's no way we could take care of them all without that many servants.
|
Grim
Grim
|
Th-thirty!?
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Uuuhhh, it might be forty. I stopped counting once it got over thirty!
I've got all their names and faces down though! Ah ha ha!
|
Grim
Grim
|
That's in a whole other league from us normal people...
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Jamil's mother and father are part of our servants.
So Jamil has been helping take care of me since we were little.
Jamil is amazing. He's smart, observant and more than that a great cook!
|
Grim
Grim
|
You're right, everything we ate was awesome.
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Right? You guys should stick around for dinner too! 'Kay!
|
Grim
Grim
|
S-sure. ...I get lost in the moment talking with this guy.
|
Choice 1: There's actually good people at this school.
|
Choice 2: I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop...
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Hey guys, don't be whispering way back there! Come here.
|
|
Grim
Grim
|
Baaaah! What is this place!? It's floor to ceiling treasure!
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
My dad had me take all of this when I left home.
It couldn't all fit in my room so I turned this room into a store room for it.
|
Grim
Grim
|
This isn't a store room, it's a treasure vault!
|
Kalim
Kalim
|
Ooh. That's a good word for it. Very nice!
My favorite thing in this mountain of treasure is... Huh? Where is it?
It likes to go all over the place by itself sometimes.
Heeey, where'd you go?
|
Grim
Grim
|
Whoooaa... Gems as big as my eyes and shiny, gold cups.
With all this I'm sure he'd never notice if one went missing... Heeheehee...
|
(poke, poke)
|
Grim
Grim
|
I'm a little busy looking through treasure right now!
|
(poke, poke)
|
Grim
Grim
|
Will you just leave me... Gaaaahhh!!!!
That carpet is moving on its own! Is it some kind of possessed carpet!?
