At Mother’s Hill Summit, Marie seems upset. She explains that while organizing the books in the Library, she found an old book.

Marie wanted to read the book somewhere nice, so she brought it to Mother’s Hill.

She cries because the story in the book touched her deeply. Marie thanks you for your concern and asks if you have ever read a book that made you cry.

• Positive Answer: “Yeah. Books are love. Books are life.”

Marie is happy to hear that you have also become absorbed in a book like she has.

She gives you the book she found because she has finished reading it and wants to share its story with you.

Reward: +3,000 LP with Marie

• Negative Answer: “Mere words cannot move me.”

Marie’s parents seem to be worried about something. If you came to see Marie, they suggest that you come back later. They explain that Marie seems to be in a rather bad mood.

Basil says that his daughter will not even talk to him. They ask if you might be able to talk to Marie because you are around the same age.

According to them, you are the only person who might be able to do so.

Upstairs, Marie apologizes for this because she is not actually in a bad mood.

There must have been a misunderstanding. She then decides to go downstairs and explain what is really going on.

Marie explains to her parents that she has been thinking about a topic for her next novel. Basil is relieved to hear that Marie’s mood has not changed because of something they did.

Marie says that she still has not found a topic for her book. Anna then suggests that you give Marie a topic she can use.

• Negative Answer: “I’m drawing a blank.”

That is okay because it is a difficult question. Perhaps someone will be able to provide an answer later.

• Positive Answer: “What about…farm work?”

Marie wonders why she never thought of that before. She then asks if you have time to talk to her about your work on the farm.

You spend some time with Marie answering her questions about farming.

Afterward, she apologizes for taking up so much of your time, but she is sure that she can now write a fantastic novel.

To progress to the next Heart Event, you must confess your feelings to Marie by giving her a Preserved Flower.

This flower becomes available at the General Store after the Basil and Jeff event where they search for the Sunsweet Flower occurs.

Marie stops by your farm to visit, or rather, to go on a date with you. She is not sure where to go because she has not thought about that part yet.

How about going to the Library so she can tell you about the various books she finds interesting? Marie does not mind opening the Library for a little while.

On the way to the Library, you run into Karen and Popuri. They assume you are going to the Library for a date, and Popuri is surprised to learn that you also like reading books.

• Positive Answer: “Marie’s my book advisor today.”

Marie confirms what you said.

Reward: +3,000 LP with Marie

• Negative Answer: “Reading is the worst.”

Karen wonders why you are going to the Library if you hate reading.

Marie explains that she brought you to the Library to help you choose a book you might enjoy.

Popuri says that she does not know what kind of book might interest her. Marie tells Popuri that she is sure she will find a type of book she likes.

As for Karen, Marie thinks she might be interested in a cookbook with an adventure story. There is a book called Gourmand General, a story about a general searching for cooking ingredients.

The book even has a special section for cooking recipes. Karen agrees that the book sounds quite interesting.

For Popuri, how about My Uncle’s a Wizard? It is about an ordinary girl who attends a ball at the palace and a romantic story about falling in love with a prince.

In the book, the girl’s uncle is a wizard who uses his magic to dress her up for the ball.

Popuri did not realize that there were so many different types of books in the Library. Marie can tell someone about books they might enjoy just by talking to them.

She says that she wants people who do not usually read books to visit the Library.

That sounds great, but Karen and Popuri are on their way to PoPoultry to help Lillia, so they cannot stop by now. They will come later to check out the books Marie recommended to them.

After the two girls leave, Marie is happy that they are now interested in books. And it is all thanks to you. She feels that ever since you arrived, more and more people have been coming to the Library, little by little.

Like today, Marie wants to find a book recommendation for you. She wants to know what kind of books you might enjoy. She feels that she has become a little more cheerful since starting a relationship with you and thanks you for helping her change.

Marie suggests that the two of you continue to the Library because she has not had a chance to choose a book for you yet.

You run into Marie while walking toward the Library. She apologizes because she is just about to close the Library for the day.

Marie plans to take a walk to the mountain to think about a story for her novel and invites you to join her.

At the mountain summit, Marie tells you that she always gets inspiration whenever she comes here.

She decides that her next story will be a romantic mountain-themed tale about a werewolf who is cursed forever and eventually falls in love with the mountain goddess.

The werewolf asks the goddess to turn him back into a normal human. The goddess grants his request, but tragically, this means that he can no longer see his kind-hearted lover.

The story will be about love and loss. What do you think?

• Positive Answer: “Exciting AND inspiring!”

Marie thanks you for your encouraging words. She is a little embarrassed to discuss the details of an unfinished story, but you have given her the motivation she needs.

Reward: +3,000 LP with Marie

• Negative Answer: “That’s pretty grim, Marie.”

Marie is disappointed that you do not like her story. Of all people, she is the one who most wants you to read it.

Based on your feedback, Marie plans to make the story less complicated.

Marie then turns to you and tells you that you are her light. Without you in her world, she would remain surrounded by darkness.

You make her very happy, and in return, she wants to make you happy as well. Marie says that she cares deeply about you.

Although you may be surprised to hear this, she explains that simply saying “I love you” sounds cliché.

You do not respond, making Marie somewhat embarrassed. She suddenly claims that she was only planning the ending of her novel. After all, she wants her story to have a happy ending.

Marie is happy that she can spend the rest of her life with you. After all, being with you could never result in a tragic love story because you make her so happy.

This event ends back at your house at 5:00 PM.

After completing all the Heart Events and upgrading your house, Gotts will eventually send you a letter informing you that he has started selling the Big Bed, which is one of the requirements for marriage.

Jeff from the General Store will also sell the Blue Feather, an item used to propose to Marie.

Once all the requirements have been met, it is time to give the Blue Feather to Marie. After she accepts your proposal, the wedding will take place 7 days later.
