## Background

### Journal Notes

Three pages of background are recorded in the journal in-game. The first page is unlocked after officially meeting this character, while the remaining two pages are unlocked by increasing Friendship with them.

1/3
**Page 1**: *Nova was once a famous fashion designer in the capital, but returned to her hometown of Moonbury to open her own Tailor shop after husband passed away. She's trying to start a new chapter of her life and let go of her past.*

**Page 2**: *Ever since her husband left Nova, she has been feeling blue most of her time. She goes to the Church to pray for him whenever she can't hold back the tears. She usually hides her sorrow beneath her tough outer shell.*

**Page 3**: *In honour of her late husband, Nova has decided to fix his handmade wedding suit and display it inside her shop. She has actually been neglecting his old stuff all this time, hoping to move on, but now she's bravely doing the opposite. Nova has come to feel a sense of acceptance and can now live the dream they used to have in the shop they built together.*

## Dialogue

### Villager Conversations

Mercy: He's with the gods in heaven now, Nova. Don't you worry.
**Nova**: I know...But I still miss him...
Mercy: Of course! I used to cook them for my kids once in a while.
**Nova**: I've been craving one. Can you share your recipe with me?

Mariele: Yes, Victor cleans them every single day.
**Nova**: Such a generous act. Maybe I should reward him. Do you know what kind of things he likes?
Mariele: You always have done, and I'm sure he would appreciate it.
**Nova**: He used to give me flowers back then, but now...
Mariele: Huusshh! What makes you say that?
**Nova**: Ah, forgive me. The idea suddenly crossed my mind.

### Chemist Conversations

When interacting with the character, the Chemist can talk to them. Depending on Trust and Friendship level there will be different things this character will say to the Chemist.

**No Trust**

* "Judging by your reputation, you aren't worth my time."

**Friendship Level 1**

* "Excuse me? Are you free right now?"
* "Your...fashion sense...is very peculiar. I suspect it's just a matter of different cultures, but still...Hideous!"
* "Are you enjoying youself here? Don't forget your manners! This isn't the capital..."

**Friendship Level 2**

* "Greetings, [Chemist]. What do you think about my latest skirt design? It's gorgeous, ins't it? Right? I know it is."
* "Oh, dear husband...If only you were here with me right now...How I miss your gentle touch on my cheek...I miss you so much, my dear."
* "This old journal I bought from an antique auction has exceeded my expectations! It has this fantastic section about old-fashioned dresses. How very neat!"

**Friendship Level 3 (Max)**

* "[Chemist], would you like to be one of my label models? Whenever you get tired of your job, of course. You would look dashing dressed in high-end fashion."
* "If my husband was still alive, I think the two of you would get along. We could have tea and talk about fashion all day..."
* "We should definitely play some games together, [Chemist]. I'll gladly teach you the joy of arcade games."

## Other Details

* It seems her late husband is buried in the Moonbury Graveyard, as she mentions that she brought flowers for him as one of the dialogue options with Mariele when they visit the graveyard.
* After the second Friendship Quest, A suit that belonged to Nova's late husband will remain on display at Silky Stitch Tailor's
