The last outing with the Regent could not be defined as “out” by
most standards, because it was indoors. From Ana she inherited a strange contraption
that projects images of a story and invited me to view one. The title of it was
“Tomorrow is Another Day,” and it was an old human tale.
It related a young woman of affluence who lost her position and
fortune due to a civil war between human kingdoms, and then struggled to return
to her former status. The story was quite long, but I wished to see it
concluded. Not all of the words or scenarios did I understand and this prompted
a number of questions. Fortunately the Regent was obliging in her
answers. She also admitted some anxiety with exposing me to the machine because
of the foreignness of it.
My curiosity regarding the themes and symbols is not satisfied completely
though, and so I hope to happen upon the book that the moving picture story is
sourced on. But do not have the leisure to pursue it directly.
