Just as Sif watched Roland leave with a sigh, Roland suddenly stopped and turned to look at her.
"I bought a little gift at the shop, not sure if you like it..."
"I do."
Sif calmly said, "A true lady does not refuse a sincerely given gift."
She had half a sentence she hadn't said aloud.
Only from someone she likes.
Roland took a jewelry box out of his pocket, carefully opened it, and a beautiful jade necklace appeared in sight.
Jade can store the power of nature, making it the favorite gemstone of elves who revere nature.
Although Sif wasn't an elf, she chose the "Elf Princess" as her extraordinary profession, so gifting her jade was quite fitting.
Roland held the necklace and came to stand before Sif.
As he was about to hand the necklace to Sif, Sif raised her head and closed her eyes.
It was obvious that she meant for Roland to put it on her.
Roland, of course, would not be pretentious.
He set the small box down, deftly unclasped the necklace, and approached Sif.
