Third Shard [Action]
Once upon a time...
There was a prince who was locked in a tower. His kingdom had been conquered by a dark king who was known for his ravenous greed, and he sealed off the prince from his people whom he loved. Alone and desperate, the prince was overwhelmed by sorrow until a miracle appeared. A swan had come to his window, and her feathers concealed letters from the people he missed so dearly. Day after day, the swan returned, bringing him more words of hope and well wishes from his people. These letters helped to rebuild the prince's heart, and he started to have hope again. One day, the swan decided to fulfill that hope. She lent him her wings, and with them he soared to freedom. The wings wore down as he reached land, and the prince was free to lead his people again. It was only then that he realized that by giving up her wings, the swan had trapped herself in his place. She was never seen again, and with that, all of the happiness that the prince had found began to crumble away.
In fact, it is said that this prince never smiled again...

[Today, Mytho's wandering around town has something closer resembling meaning to it. Sure, he doesn't live near enough Duck to immediately notice her absence - nor does he come across her path on a daily basis. But he's still searching for her, without stopping. He goes around various locales around the town such as the library, the bakery, the fountain and most places around the plaza. And throughout his search, he specifically looks sad. He had felt that heart shard return to him the previous night, and that emotion - the emotion of sorrow - has been weighing on him ever since.
He will often stop passerby to ask them:]
Excuse me. Have you... seen Duck?
[Or, he may instead ask.]
Do you know... where Tutu is?
[Everyone knows Duck and Tutu, right? But all along, in a way, he knows. They're both gone. He's been able to feel it, ever since he woke up. He's not sure why both Duck and Tutu are associated with his feeling... He just knows that it feels like a piece of his heart is gone.
The search is over when night falls. He sits at the edge of the fountain, wallowing in this sorrow. And wishing he had the strength to try to dance.]

A-Ahem, moving on! Norma shakes her head, looking a little forlorn.]
Well, I never heard about any princess or whatever, but I haven't seen Duckie in a real long time. Uh...if you know where she was living, then you can check there to see if her stuff's still around. If it is, then she's just with the Malno-nos for however long they want her. If her stuff's gone, then... [Norma shallows down the lump in her throat.] Then she may've been sent back home, to her own world. That's how it works.
[Action]
I'm not sure if I remember where she lives. But... I think she may be gone. She's not coming back.
[Action]
Jeez...h-hey, I know it's real tough to have one of your friends maybe go home [She's felt that pain time and time again.] but in the end it's kinda better that way! None of us really belong here, right? So...uh. Tr-try not to look so upset, okay? I mean, if you really wanna look on the bright side, she may not be gone! And she could always come back, too!
[Action]
She... she could? Duck... and Tutu as well? In the past, Tutu was gone often. But she did... always appear when she was needed.
[Still, he says somewhat shakingly as the feeling of sorrow overpowers him.]
I don't know if I'll see them again.
