Ayla: Brilliance III

>

And so, you accompany Ayla to the modern art exhibition upon her invitation...

My piece won't be displayed here until later, but we can at least look at others' artwork and get hyped for the event.

Commandant, let go on in.

Commandant, have you heard about the life of Eugene Nakahara?

Look! It's Lina Ono's "Magenta Wave"!

After taking a big lap around the exhibition hall, Ayla is now filled with excitement...

Full of energy at a time like this, no one would have guessed that she works late into the night...

...

Ayla stops in front of a picture titled "Early Spring".

She seems full of regret... but why?

Hey...

This paint... is an old piece of mine. Maybe it's here as a replacement for the original exhibit.

It's not my best work... It's too constrained and pays too much attention on expressing "objective existence."

But looking at it now... it seems as if this is a reminder not to be constrained to such a simple "form"...

...

The exhibition is closing...

Sorry for making you be with me all day.

So... How did you know that the question mark could be filled in?

Regardless of how you did it...

I think I got some inspiration.

Think I can trouble you for a bit tomorrow?
