Hyle:
Hmmhmmhmm hmm hmm hmm...
Sherie:
...
Hyle:
You need something, kid? I'm busy.
Sherie:
I see that. Where did you get all that gold?
Hyle:
What, are you jealous?
Sherie:
Honestly? Yes! I understand your a mercenary... I am too, but I've never held that much at a time!
Hyle:
Just need to know when to take advantage of the situation.
Sherie:
Take advantage...
Hyle:
It's easy enough. As long as people exist, someone is gonna want someone else dead. Just pick the jobs that benefit you the most.
Sherie:
...

///B
Sherie:
Hyle, I heard you were working for the enemy before.
Hyle:
Hmm? Yeah, I switched sides.
Sherie:
Why? I'd think the empire would have more money.
Hyle:
Yeah, but now I'm working directly for royalty. I don't need to work with some middle man here. I get a fat stack of gold straight from the duke for this.
Sherie:
What if the regent, Raum, were to personally make you an offer?
Hyle:
Depends on what that offer is.
Sherie:
I don't know if I could do such a thing...
Hyle:
Mercenaries work for gold, kid. The higher the price, the better. Anything lower is a charity case. A waste of time.
Sherie:
...
Hyle:
You sure you're cut out for this line of work, Miss?
Sherie:
Fighting is the only thing I'm good at... But I just don't know...

///A
Sherie:
Maybe I'm not cut out to be a mercenary after all. Bah... But I've tried everything else already...
Hyle:
Well, not everyone can be as ruthless as I am. I wouldn't be so worried about that though. Aren't you working for Duke Florencia?
Sherie:
Yeah.
Hyle:
Tch. I'd kill to be in your position, honestly. He's the richest of the three southern dukes. You probably won't have to work again after the war.
Sherie:
Humm... I hope so...
Hyle:
You sure are obsessed with making it big, kid. What'll you do if you get a hold of that much cash?
Sherie:
If I get enough money to the point where I won't have to work again... I'll start with not ever working again.
Hyle:
Ha!
Sherie:
Maybe it's funny to you. But not having to worry about money ever again would be a dream. More than anything, I want a simple life with no problems... What about you? What do you want to use all that gold for?
Hyle:
... I just enjoy what I do. Getting paid for it just makes it even better.
Sherie:
Hrm...
Hyle:
Hey, don't worry about me. You'll be better off in the long run, I'm sure. But here is to our mutual fortunes, eh?
Sherie:
You... are a very strange man, Hyle. But alright... Thank you.
