The next morning, the Governess is dressed in her military uniform, and she's all excited about it. She's so excited that she doesn't even notice the smell of cologne coming from the Prince's body. The smell reminds her of the scent of gentian herb, which reminds her so much of the time when she was a young girl in the Greek court. She tells the Prince that she'd like to remind him of all the good times he's had in the past, so that he'll forget about his hatred for her and the western empire. She also tells him that the Prince saved her life the last time he saw her, and that he should be grateful to him for saving his life. The Prince, she tells him, is waving his blades at the people of the west who once saved his life, and the girl who escaped from the arena.
