"I'm sure that if you give her your fruits and desserts, she'll stop giving you a hard time," advised the girl.

She had been imprisoned in Luz before. However, the prison she was now trapped in proved to be far more violent and desolate than she expected.

The girl laughed, her eyes as clear as the sky.
"What's your name? Why are you helping me?" asked Clara.
"My name is Bella. Your voice sounded like my sister's. When I look at you, I'm reminded of her," she explained.
Meanwhile, back at Imperial City.
Ruby bought some groceries. She planned to return home and make stew for Blake.
