Prologue[]
On the night of the escape from Grace Field, Isabella reminisces on a happy memory from her childhood. As Krone is laying on the ground dying after having the Vida pierce her chest, she recalls her first few days of training to become a Sister.
The Starry Sky and Leslie's List[]
On the day before Leslie's shipment, Isabella helps Leslie accomplish an old list of goals he had written down of things he wanted to do before he left the House.
Seeking the Sky of Freedom[]
Krone reunites with her best friend Cecile while training to become Sisters at Headquarters. Together they plan out how they can escape.
This chapter was later adapted into the manga bonus chapter of the same name with a few minor differences.
Author Notes[]
I've been looking forward to the second part of the short version ever since the project was announced. For the cover illustration, my goal was to depict the strength and beauty of Isabella and Krone.
If you don't mind, please compare it with last time. They are dignified adults, but they may never come out of the picture frame.
Part 2 of the short version! This time there are two stories: Mom's story and Sister's story.
Both stories are filled with wonderful lines and wonderful scenes. Demizu's favorite scene is the girl's talk scene between Cecile and Krone. Really like, this time.
(Once again, Nanao-sensei's destructive power is amazing.)
Ladies and gentlemen, what is your favorite place?
Please enjoy this volume as well!
