The original grove had turned into something frozen, glistening in the light of the setting sun.He recreated the story he heard from her about the Christmas illuminations. She had told him about how they decorated during the cold months of the season in her past world. And Hawke also uses his ice attributes magic to create a frozen tree found within the scenery. And when she turned to the leader to thank him for what he did, he grabbed her right hand for some reason. When Sei had looked up to ask about his true intentions, she met the head with a serious expression.

In response to the proposal from Albert Hawke, she confesses she also likes him as well. And he pulls her into his arms and hugs her closely.
