Edna tilted her head, watching her undead friend engaged in lively conversation, suddenly chuckled... casting aside the envy and yearning that arose upon witnessing Midnight and Kranvo's love, along with a faint trace of discontent.
The love between those two was indeed real, yet also too unrealistic... Apart from love, why couldn't they just focus on romance without getting involved in such terrifying destiny?
Edna still couldn't discern from Midnight's memories what led the couple to choose the path of destiny... if Midnight was truly indifferent to fame and fortune as she believed herself to be.
Edna thought Midnight was somewhat self-deceptive... wanting to be renowned like Elminster isn't wrong, it's just that both she and Kranvo oversimplified the matter.
They possess grand ambitions but lack Elminster's sharp intellect and emotional intelligence.
Cyric's betrayal was destined from the start... a person like that can't be suppressed by mere strength.
