Season 2-Revealed.
Previous Chapter:
S: (looks back) Sofia, I don't know what you said earlier…
S: But I'm sure… it was something beautiful.
S: (looks ahead again) She's already far away…
"POV Sofia"
Sofia: (looks back) S. is already far away.
Sofia: (guides her horse) I hope we meet again. She's so unique and interesting…
Sofia: I hope both of them stay safe… on their journey….

sound of hooves and earth crunching
S: (controlling her horse's pace)
Remi, we've been riding for so long..
S: Are you sure we're not lost?
Remi: (looking at the map)
We're not lost, I'm sure of it.
sound of sand tearing
Remi: (eyes focused on the road)
If we follow my custom-made map, Farmland Village shouldn't be far from here.
Remi: Besides, we've already ridden far past the borders of Graz.
sound of hooves
Remi: (glancing at S.)
Heyy S.
Remi: You're thinking about Sofia, aren't you?
S: (startled)
W-what are you talking about!
S: (controlling her horse)
I'm not thinking about her, besides, we barely even know her, right?
Remi: (looking ahead)
Hahaha, I was just kidding..
S: (refocusing on the road)
I was just surprised you'd say that..
sound of earth being torn
Remi: (controlling his horse)
Eyes back on the road, we'll reach the mountain area soon..
S: (hugging her horse's back)
Alright then, I'm really tired..
Remi: (in his thoughts)
I heard every word they said..
Remi: I don't understand what's happening, but I felt something when I heard Sofia and S. joking around.
Remi: I want to feel that… for myself.
Meanwhile, in Farmland
Tomas: (blank stare)
Where else should we look…
Cashew: I'm exhausted, we've been searching for them every morning till night.
Lucien: Don't give up, we'll keep searching.
Lucien: Maybe they got lost in the mountains.
Emrik: I'm heading back home, I'm hungry.
Franz: (from afar)
I'll ask the villagers for help searching for Remi and S.
Franz: You guys get some rest.
Dario: I'll keep looking, they're my friends!
Viktor: Stubborn as always..
Lucien: (annoyed face)
If you're not helping, just shut up.
Tomas: I've got a feeling… they're lost on the other side of the Alps.
Daniel: (soft voice)
Maybe they ended up all the way in Switzerland?
Tomas: Impossible. Switzerland's way too far from here..
Tiber: (pausing to think)
The most logical explanation is they're on the far side of the Alps.
Tiber: The problem is… those mountains are huge. Where do we even start looking?
Cashew: How about we split up?
Tomas: Bad idea. I'm afraid you'll all get lost too..
Dario: Then what's the strategy?
Tomas: I don't know, I'm lost too..
Daniel: (sighs)
Hufftt… I hope they're alright.
from afar, sound of galloping hooves and a shout
HEYY EVERYONE…WE'RE BACK!
Lucien: (startled)
Heyy! Whose voice was that?
Tiber: That voice… it's familiar…
Viktor: (looking into the distance)
N-no way…
Daniel: What is it?
Viktor: It's them!!
sound of hooves approaching
S: (from atop a horse in the distance)
WE'RE BACK!
Remi: (slowing his horse down)
It's been a while since I've seen you all..
Dario: THEY'RE BACK!
Tomas: S. She's wearing a sombrero..
Tomas: Where'd she get that?
Cashew: Finally, they're back!!
Remi: (stopping his horse)
Remi: (dismounting)
How have you all been?
S: (dismounting)
Did you miss us?
everyone stares at S. and Remi with blank, confused faces
Lucien: (blank stare)
Where the hell have you two been…
Lucien: Don't you know we've been looking for you nonstop for two days!?
Tomas: Are you both alright?
Cashew: Is anyone hurt?
S: We're both okay, don't worry..
Remi: (entering the house)
I'll explain everything later.
Viktor: Hey, why are you going inside so fast?
Remi: I'm exhausted. I just want to sleep the whole day..
Tomas: We still have S. to question…
S: (panicked expression)
Uhh…
S: What do you want to know?
Dario: Tell us everything. Where did you two go for two whole days?
Tiber: And why didn't you tell any of us?
S: (sighs)
Huffttt… alright.
S: So it all started when…
S. tells them everything from beginning to end—why she and Remi left without saying a word to anyone.
S: So that's how it all began. We were just curious about the outside world..
Tomas: What was the name of the Spanish woman you mentioned?
S: Sofia Delgado.
Viktor: That scarf and sombrero… are they from—
S: Yes, they were gifts from Sofia..
Daniel: Your journey sounds like it was really something..
Tiber: What matters is that you both made it back safe..
S: Where's Mr. Franz?
Cashew: He's out right now, we'll let him know when he gets back.
Tomas: You should get some rest now..
Tomas: We've still got a lot to ask you two.
Viktor: I'm heading home too. See you all tomorrow.
Tomas: Wait up!
Tomas: Daniel, let's go!
Daniel: Alright, let's head home..
Daniel: See you tomorrow, everyone..
Cashew: Those three are gone!
Cashew: S., tell us what really happened!
S: What now?
S: I already told you the truth earlier..
Siro: Are you sure?
S: Ohh, Siro.
S: You've barely said a word this whole time..
Siro: Seems that way…
S: Alright, I'll tell you more..
S: Sofia told us so many things, about the world, languages, and cultures..
Lucien: Was there anything… more important?
S: Of course there was…
S: But I'm not telling you that now…
S: It's not time yet.
Tiber: Come on, what kind of joke is this!?
Tiber: (heading inside)
I'm going to bed too!
S: I'll tell you all… just not now.
S: (confused expression)
Weird… why is everyone heading back into the house all of a sudden…
Meanwhile, inside Remi's room
Remi: (punching his own face)
WHAT IS THIS…
Remi: Why do I keep thinking about S. and Sofia's conversation…
Remi: I don't get this feeling… I've never felt it before…
Remi: It's weird even just imagining it..
Remi: I'm… really curious.
