To be honest, Miss Nina's arrival at the Colossus is impossible to forget. First, a large procession from the Andersen family brought in mattresses of all sizes and different materials. The butler in the lead reminded me over and over again to let Nina try everything and find her favorite one. Then, countless boxes of all shapes and sizes were brought in that were apparently meant for her pets to live in! Honestly, I wasn't shocked by the sheer number of pets she had with her, but some of them were really special. Never mind the dogs and cats since they're common visitors on the Colossus, but she had pigs, lambs, and even ponies! My goodness... Fortunately, Miss Nina arrived shortly after and solved my conundrum by kicking everyone off the Colossus before expressing her apologies to %s and me. I also heard her mumbling complaints about her father. I guess even Miss Nina has her troubles!

Count Androma Andersen was born to the Andersen family of Lumopolis Gardens in Umbraton. As a collateral relative of the old earl, Androma earned his favor and approval with his vast knowledge and outstanding abilities. After the earl's death, Androma managed to make public the earl's will: "Assign key responsibilities exclusively to Androma among all the descendants of the family." Thereafter, Count Androma Andersen took it as his duty to grow the Andersen family's power and influence. This involved stepping away from the grey market and investing in emerging businesses; expanding the family's social circle to include talents who were mere commoners; and establishing an extensive information network...
What's with the lethargic look on your face? Didn't you ask me to introduce myself? How could you be drowsy already before I've read my own chapter? My part is coming soon! Hey, %s!

Before you, I never met anyone who hadn't heard of Nina Andersen. I don't mind it at all. Uncle Istvan often suggests that I should leave the shelter of my father's wings, travel around, and interact with people from all walks of life... Ah, you're curious about my family's relationship with Uncle Istvan? Well, as much as I'd love to tell you more, I really don't know much. Father told me there was a disagreement between him and his brothers over the Andersen family's businesses many years ago. Many things happened after, and one by one those uncles miraculously changed their minds. Uncle Istvan and my father have been business partners since. You're confused? I-I can't help it, since I was just a baby then!

Before the Darkover Crisis, I had never experienced any loss before.
I guess this isn't your first time hearing a story about that fateful night. The fast-spinning wheels of the vehicle that carries us whilst we were on the run, the Lumo guards trying to block us off, my father staying behind in Umbraton to defend our family businesses, and my mother who passed away shortly after our arrival... The amalgation of these things make up my memory of that night... It was my first time finding the color white revolting.
%s, don't give me that look. I'm not the kind of person who spends her entire life brooding over sorrows... at least not anymore.
Many years later, Uncle Istvan invited Father back to Umbraton to redevelop the city. Father asked for my opinion. Of course, I chose Umbraton over Lumopolis.

You're also interested in my business? Since you asked to sincerely, I'm feeling charitable enough to give you a brief introduction.
All my shops are at the best locations in Umbraton. I have a jewelry store, a boutique, and a weapons shop! All my products are handmade to measure. Hmm! The number of my shops is definitely higher than hers. Bethel? Did I say Bethel? Why do people keep bringing up her name before me? I'm tired of competing with her!
Besides opening up new branches, I'm constantly trying new designs. Check out this one, Nina's Secret Trove! You see how it looks like just your average umbrella? In fact, it allows me to change between different fighting styles. Huh? You once saw a teddy bear fall out of the umbrella? Shh! I'm still working on this feature. Some small flaws are totally understandable. %s, don't you tell anyone! This is a secret between you and me!
