In Episode 7 of "Tearmoon Teikoku Monogatari," Princess Mia Luna Tearmoon embarks on a journey back to her kingdom during the school break. During the trip, she reflects on the impending food shortage in the kingdom and devises a plan to counteract it.
Mia meets Marco Forkroad, the father of her friend Chloe, who is a merchant. She proposes importing wheat at a fixed price, even in the event of a famine, coining the term "friendship price." This agreement ensures a steady supply of wheat at a reasonable cost and safeguards the empire from future famines.
Back in the empire, Mia visits the New Moon District, a slum she previously aided. She witnesses the positive changes resulting from her efforts, including a functioning hospital and improved food distribution. During her visit, a boy from the Lulus tribe, a remote forest-dwelling people, gifts Mia a unicorn hairpin as a token of gratitude. This hairpin, crafted from the wood of a tree in his homeland, becomes a symbol of Mia's connection to the Lulus.
Meanwhile, Viscount Berman, a nobleman, plots to clear the Forest of Silence, home to the Lulus tribe, to expand his lands. His actions create tensions with the tribe, and he requests military intervention. However, the military hesitates to engage, aware of the risks of conflict with the Lulus.
Seizing the opportunity, Viscount Berman suggests developing the Forest of Silence to supply Mia with more unicorn hairpins. Intrigued, Mia decides to visit the forest, unaware of the tensions there. In the forest, Mia inadvertently sparks an uprising, prompting the military forces to withdraw quickly. She uses this incident to order a full military retreat to the city, halting Berman's development plans. This strategic move is interpreted by Centurio Dion as a clever bluff by Mia to protect the Lulus and prevent further conflict.
