- After delivering firewood, Elsword and Ain briefly looked around. Villagers were all busy preparing for the festival and even Raven was awkwardly standing there amongst them.
 Elsword: How's the situation? Is it bad? Ann: It's not great. There's not enough food, and the fabrics haven't even arrived. I'm not sure if we'd have enough time to make the clothes... Ain: 'Is it necessary to have a festival even in a situation like this? I do not understand why they'd force themselves.'  Lowe: Hey, at least look at the bright side. With this, we should be able to make enough food for ourselves. I heard there are some villages that's been pillaged by bandits.- Ann: Still, I'm a little disheartened that this year's festival is lacking compared to last year's, especially the low supply of flour and meat. I don't think we can bake a lot of pies...
 Raven: ......- Raven looked concerned when he heard Ann and Lowe's complaint. He silently turned around and headed to the forest.
- Elsword: Where is Raven headed to now? He just came here...
- Ain: Maybe the topic itself makes him uncomfortable.
- Ain: Since Mr. Half-Nasod was the captain of the Black Crows.
- Elsword: Hm...
- Elsword: Anyway... We have a lot of fruits, so let's bake pies out of that. We can make stew with the meat... That should be enough food to go around.
- Ann: But what about the festival robes?
- That moment, there was a commotion at the village entrance. It seemed a wagon was coming to Ruben.
- Ain: Hm? Hs. Magician is back. Where did you go?
 Aisha: Phew, I went to Elder! I thought I wouldn't make it on time.- Ann: You're right on time! Sigh, I was really worried we won't get the robes on time.
 Hagus: At least we have them now. But we must hurry. Let us all work on it together today.- Aisha: I'll help too! I'm very good at sewing!
- Elsword: You? Sewing?
- Aisha: What, you don't believe me? You start picking up things when you're always on the go, you know?
- Aisha: But, even if I help out making the robes, there's still so much things to do. Hm... How's the food preparation?
- Elsword: Don't worry, it's already prepared in case the fabric arrived late!
- Elsword: I'll be helping out with cooking so the preparations will be done before the festival starts.
- Aisha: You? Cooking? That's really unexpected. Are you sure it's edible?
- Elsword: What do you mean! You're making fun of me!
- Aisha: There, there. I'm sorry for doubting you. Of course you're good at cooking since you're so good at eating. Anyway, since Elsword has the cooking down, we need more help to make clothes. Ain, would you mind helping me out?
- Ain: Me? Ah... I suppose. I should warn you, I've never done something like this before.
- Aisha: It's fine. It's easy once you know how.
- Aisha took the pattern and confidently traced it on the fabric. Ain watched as Aisha's hands fluttered across the fabric.
- Aisha: Let's start by cutting out the fabric according to the measurements. It's important to have each part sectioned out.
- Ain: I see. You cut the front, and the sleeves separately... Are you eventually sewing these parts together?
- Aisha: Yeah! You've got good eyes.
- Ain: What happens if you make clothes without cutting them out like this?
- Aisha: It's going to be uncomfortable since it won't fit properly. You can't call that clothes anymore.
- Ain: Ah, so that's how it works. I'll have to be more mindful with my clothes next time.
- Aisha: Next time?
- Ain: Haha, it's nothing.
