Kalim Kalim	…And that’s why, I wanna invite both Cater and Lilia to the Scalding Sands!
Grim Grim	Sounds like it’s gonna be an amaaazing festival!
Cater Cater	Yayyy! Of course I wanna go, Kalim! Never-before-seen foods in the charming streets… A palace rising from the depths of the desert… No matter where you look, everywhere’s just super Magicammable! I’ve been curious about the Scalding Sands since a while back too~ I gave up trying since I don’t have money to go overseas, but I never thought I’d have a chance to go like this! Plus, it’s the one day of the year with fireworks lighting up the festival night sky! I can score a viral photo for suresies ♪ And to think I can view it from the best possible place! Truly blessed are those who are close to the Asims ☆
Kalim Kalim	Glad to make you happy! What about you, Lilia?
Lilia Lilia	The Scalding Sands, huh. I visited it a long time ago. ‘Twas an interesting country. I believe it should’ve changed a lot from back then. I’m interested to see how it has developed.
Cater Cater	“A long time ago”, so when’d you last visit the Scalding Sands, Lilia?
Lilia Lilia	Kekeke… Unfortunately, I can’t tell you that. I get charm points for having at least a secret of my own, right? Okay. Since Kalim was so kind as to invite me, I’ll go on this trip for some brief entertainment.
Kalim Kalim	So Lilia’s joining too! Yay! I never thought we’d be able to travel together as Light Music Club members. I’m super hyped! Oh, right! We actually have two seats left. So you can each invite one of your friends to come along!
Cater Cater	For real!? I wonder who I shall ask~?
Lilia Lilia	Hrm… I’ve decided already. I’ve got a perfect candidate in mind. This’ll be a good chance for him to study how foreign nations work.
Grim Grim	Study foreign nations? What d’you mean by that?
Lilia Lilia	Kekeke… That’s a surprise for tomorrow.

The next day
Kalim Kalim	It’s finally the Yasmina River Fireworks Festival day! Hurry, Jamil, let’s go to the Mirror Chamber!
Jamil Jamil	Don’t rush, there’s still a lot of time before our agreed meeting time with Yuu and the rest. When we get back, you’ll have an important responsibility to fulfill, so you need to cut down on your merrymaking…
Kalim Kalim	I know, I know. Once I put my mind to something, I make sure to complete it without a hitch. Oh yeah, Grim and Yuu probably won’t oversleep, right? I’m worried for them since our meeting time is earlier than our usual classes.
Jamil Jamil	There’ll be no issue. I told Yuu to ensure Grim wouldn’t be late at all costs. And just to be sure, I also passed five alarm clocks to them.
Cuts to Grim along the corridor
Jamil Jamil	Look, Yuu and Grim are on the other end of the hall, heading our way. I’m glad we could meet on our way to the Mirror Chamber. It’s a sign of a good start to our journey.
Good Morning.		We managed to be punctual.
Grim Grim	We came just on time! I was so excited for the festival that I woke up before the alarm clocks rang! But then, they kept ringing non-stop one after another… It was so noisy I couldn’t stand it, Jamil!
Jamil Jamil	Really? Seems like the task I entrusted Yuu with was excessive, if not harmful.
Grim Grim	Apologise to me this instant!!
Kalim Kalim	I understand that feeling of waking up too early, Grim! I was so hyped last night that I couldn’t get a good night’s sleep too! Jamil was also staying up pretty late last night. Was it because you were too excited to sleep?
Jamil Jamil	Of course not. I was making preparations for today. I checked our luggage, readjusted our schedule, contacted the persons-in-charge… All while you were asleep.
Kalim Kalim	Whaaat~ If you’d told me I could’ve helped out too!
Jamil Jamil	……Sigh. Forget it. That’s my responsibility anyway.
Kalim Kalim	You’re truly reliable, Jamil!
