The Kingdom of Marinforest is home to a human king and three fairy kings.

Thanks to the Forest Fairy King, the land is blessed with abundance,

and its fertility is guaranteed.

Thanks to the Sky Fairy King, the air is very clean,

and there is never a shortage of life-giving rain.

Thanks to the Sea Fairy King,

things like coral, pearls, and fish are abundant

and bring prosperity to the kingdom.

Everyone in the Marinforest royal family is loved by the fairies

and has received their blessing.

The fairies' power is vital in supporting the kingdom.

I'll undergo bridal training for the next year.

I do feel a bit sad about leaving my homeland.

What's wrong, Tiara? Is something on your mind?

Prince Aqua...

No, I'm very excited to go to Marinforest.

I'm sure I will miss my homeland at times,

but you'll be with me, so I'll be happy.

Oh, honestly... You always say such adorable things.

If there's ever anything troubling you, tell me right away.

I will.

Of course, if you tell me you want to go home,

I don't have the slightest shred of confidence that I could let you.

Prince Aqua...

Oh! Is that the border?

Yes.

On Lapis Lazuli's side, you can see roses,

but on Marinforest's side, the border is decorated differently.

Wow! It's incredible!

I'll surprise you even more. Look.

So this is the Kingdom of Marinforest!

This is the first time I've ever seen the ocean!

No need to rush. The ocean won't run away.

It's Aquasteed and Elliot!

Welcome home!

How cute!

We're back.

Have you all been well?

I want to be friends with them, too...

Let's go over there.

Y-Yes, let's. Maybe they'll be our friends.

Good day to you.

Ew! I hate you!

Don't touch us!

Fairies are fickle creatures.

Y-Yes, I have heard people say so.

Who is this?

I know who! They were calling her "Philine"!

I like Philine!

Oh, don't worry about me.

I do feel sad that they don't like me, though.

You can take your time, Tiara.

In fact, I'm actually relieved they didn't take you from me.

Prince Aqua...

Huh?

Lady Icilla?

Huh?

and just when Prince Aqua is feeling fed up with

Prince Aquasteed, it's so good to see you again.

Yes, it has been a while.

Did you swim all the way here?

Yes, I was swimming with the sea fairies, and I ended up here.

Welcome home, Prince Aquasteed.

And... this is someone I haven't met before, yes?

My name is Icilla Pearllant.

This is my fiancée.

Oh!

My name is Tiararose Lapis Clamentile.

I'm very happy to meet you.

The Pearllants are the ducal family that oversees the oceans.

Icilla is skilled at raising fish, corals, and other things in the sea.

She always helps me with my work.

Oh, I see!

I'll do my best to continue to be useful to you!

Oh, and please come visit our house again soon.

I always looked forward to your visits.

Of course. I'll visit soon.

Is it possible that I'm the villainess in the sequel as well?

Yes, my existence is definitely irregular.

I might be completely removed from the story.

If I am, then once again...

Excuse me. I'm going to rest by the carriage for a bit.

Huh?

I wasn't expecting the heroine to show up so soon.

I don't want to lose Prince Aqua.

What should I do now?

What face should I make when I return?

I'm not confident that I can act cheerful.

How troubling.

You're troubled?

Forest... fairies?

What's your name?

Oh, my name is Tiararose Lapis Clamentile.

Tiara! Nice to meet you!

I love Tiara!

I can't believe it.

Forest fairies don't normally like people,

yet they're blessing her?

Elliot? What brings you here?

Oh, I apologize.

I've been following behind at a short distance to guard you.

Did you wander out here alone because something is wrong?

No, I'm all right.

I was in the carriage for a long time, so I wanted to stretch my legs.

Tiara, you're not happy?

This flower is really tasty!

It's blessed by the forest fairies!

Eat it! Eat it!

It's delicious.

She feels better now!

Tiara!

I'm sorry. I was walking around over there a bit.

Please don't worry me so much.

Take me with you next time.

I will.

Are you hungry? I brought some sweets with me.

No, I'm all right.

I'm so fortunate.

Instead of being so afraid of the heroine,

I should treasure all the wonderful people who support me.

I bet you've never taken such a long carriage ride before.

Are you feeling all right?

Yes.

As I mentioned, there'll be a welcome party for you in three days.

I will arrange a dress for you, of course, so please wear it.

You'll arrange a dress for me?

I'm so happy! Thank you!

Oh, darn it all...

You're so adorable.

P-Prince Aqua...

A whole year until we're married?

That's too long. I want to make you my wife right now.

Prince Aqua, don't be like that.

I'm going to complete my bridal training and be helpful to you as your wife.

Just wait a bit longer.

I know.

What do you think?

I gave you the half-up style that's popular in Marinforest right now.

It's lovely. Thank you.

You've always been so good at doing my hair.

This is where we encounter a problem.

What should we do about a hair accessory?

I'd like something that looks special for the occasion.

In that case, how about these?

They were all picked from the castle courtyard.

Flowers like these are a specialty of Marinforest.

They're lovely! Aren't they, Philine?

Yes, I'm sure they'll suit you perfectly.

Um... do you have one in a deep blue color?

A deep... blue?

I thought it might be nice to wear one the same color as Prince Aqua's hair.

Oh! That's a very good idea!

I'm very sorry, but there are no blue flowers this time of year.

Oh, I see...

What could this mean?!

It must be a gift from the forest fairies!

A gift?

Yes. You may be the only one in the kingdom right now

who's received the forest fairies' blessing.

There are some who are blessed by the sea or sky fairies,

but we never hear of anyone being blessed by the forest fairies.

Amazing! Isn't this wonderful, Lady Tiararose?

Yes!

Honestly, my Tiara is so adorable, it hurts.

Huh?

Those blue roses in your hair are beautiful, as well.

They're the same color as my hair,

so it feels as if I'm under the illusion that all of you belongs to me.

But all of me does belong to you, Prince Aqua.

I am deeply honored to meet you.

I hope we will enjoy a favorable relationship for years to come.

Lady Tiararose, Marinforest warmly welcomes you.

We are terribly pleased to have a lovely young lady like you here.

You honor me, Your Majesty.

I will devote myself to my studies for the next year

in hopes of supporting Prince Aquasteed.

I'm so looking forward to the future that lies ahead.

No matter what happens, I won't run away this time.

Prince Aquasteed, Lady Tiararose,

congratulations on your engagement.

Thank you, Lady Icilla.

What do you think of Marinforest?

Are you able to live here without difficulty?

Yes. Prince Aquasteed is taking very good care of me, as well.

I'm so glad to hear that!

I would love to become better friends with you.

Please pay a visit to my home sometime.

Huh?

Lady Icilla's mansion sits next to the foremost ocean in Marinforest.

I'm sure you would love it.

Oh, I see.

I would love to visit sometime.

I'm so happy!

I'll show you the finest hospitality I can!

All right. Thank you very much.

I don't want to get involved with her, but she's moving in quick!

I'm actually going to visit Lady Icilla now.

Are you all right?

Yes. I'm sorry to ask this of you, Tarmo.

Not at all. I am your personal knight, Lady Tiararose.

You are free to ask anything of me.

Thank you.

Lady Tiararose, thank you for coming to visit!

Thank you for inviting me, Lady Icilla.

Please, follow me. I'll show you around the garden.

All right.

Oh, my! I've never seen such pretty fish before!

The water in this fountain is seawater.

These little fish are a rare species that only lives in my ocean.

She's definitely the sequel's heroine.

Her backstory is solid.

I've prepared tea for you.

Thank you.

The ocean is just as beautiful as I've heard.

Would you like to try going in it?

What?

Oh, that's not what I mean!

I've been blessed by the sea fairies,

so I can use magic that makes breathing underwater possible.

I can even make a layer of air around your body

so you can go in the water without getting your clothes wet.

You can do that?

She's definitely the sequel's heroine.

Anything goes.

Do I stand a chance against a kind heroine

who's loved by the fairies?

My father told me

that you and Prince Aquasteed met at school.

Yes.

So you two will be marrying out of love?

That's wonderful!

What does that mean?

Does Lady Icilla not love Prince Aqua?

You are beautiful yourself, Lady Icilla.

Aren't you surrounded by men who won't leave you alone?

Lady Tiararose, please! That isn't so at all!

I have entrusted every aspect of my engagement to my father.

I'm happy as long as I can be in the sea.

See how beautifully the fish and coral have grown?

But are there no men you've fallen in love with?

No. It's embarrassing to admit, but I've yet to fall in love.

It seems hard to believe she could be lying.

How can someone be so pure, sweet, and honest?

Would you like to go into the ocean now?

There are so many cute fish there!

Yes, I'd love to.

Grant us your blessing to dive into the blue depths.

Incredible!

They don't even run away from humans?

No. I'm down here in the ocean every day,

so I'm friends with the fish.

She's like a sea goddess.

The coral is beautiful, too.

You make accessories and things from it, right?

Yes, thankfully, there are many who favor our coral products.

How wonderful!

I never dreamed I'd be able to walk under the sea.

To think there was such a beautiful world to be found down here.

I'm so glad you're enjoying it.

I'll go back up first and prepare some warm tea.

Oh, I'll go with you.

No, please, take this opportunity to enjoy yourself.

The fish are happy you're here, too!

All right, then, I will.

It seems like she really is a good person.

And yet, here I was...

It's so pretty. I'm glad I came here.

Prince Aqua?

No... But why?

Is this the power of the game?

Did I get between the two of them after all?

No! I decided I wouldn't run away!

This time, I have to make sure I get my feelings across!

Tiara, I came to pick you up.

Please don't leave me alone, Prince Aqua!

Oh, it's no use. You're too cute, Tiara.

Oh, my!

This concludes our tour of the castle interior.

If you like, I could also show you the forest behind the castle.

Beautiful flowers bloom there.

Oh, I would love to see it!

Huh?

I'm sure they're discussing work, as always.

But why on the terrace?

He said he'd be in his office all day today.

See? It looks like they're both returning to his office now.

So it does. I'm sorry.

It seems I was overthinking things.

Oh, my!

It really is beautiful!

Hey, it's Tiararose!

Hi, Tiara!

Hello. I see you're as energetic as ever today.

By the way, I have some cookies. Want some?

Yay! I do!

They're so crispy!

Yummy! I love them!

Th-They're so cute!

Tiara! Over here!

What is it?

The king is up ahead!

The king?

Huh?!

Over here!

Um... Fairy?

Where am I?

So you are Tiararose?

King!

King!

The king... of the forest fairies?!

The forest fairies love you, and you make good cookies?

I approve.

You may stay in my forest as long as you like.
