  4. \s[2]
  5. Ahh... Another wonderful day in Prydain...\n
  6. Or so one could say. I could go for\n
  7. a bite to eat though... Anything, really.|
  8. \s[-2]
  9.  
  10. \s[2]
  11. Hmm? Is that Lunete? What is she doing\n
  12. with that knife...? No... No she--\m[2|2]\n
  13. No! Lunete, stop! Stop!|
  14. \s[-2]

  18.  
  19. \r[5]\f[5|Lunete]
  20. \s[5]
  21. ... ... ...|\r[5]\n
  22. Hmm? What is that--|
  23. \s[-2]
  24.  
  25. \f[1|Escanor]\m[1|3]\w[8]
  26. \s[3]
  27. S-stop! Don't do it, Lunete!\n
  28. You have so much to live for!|
  29.  
  30. \s[5]
  31. ...? Do not do what?|
  32.  
  33. \s[3]
  34. Er... E-end it all?|
  35.  
  36. \s[5]\b[5|1]
  37. What are you talking about?|
  38.  
  39. \s[3]
  40. The knife in your hand... you have\n
  41. it so close to your neck... I thought--|
  42.  
  43. \s[5]\b[5|2]
  44. ... ... ...|
  45. \s[-2]
  46.  
  47. \w[16]
  48.  
  49. \s[5]\b[5|0]
  50. Escanor, I am cutting my hair.\n
  51. You think I would off myself in\n
  52. the middle of a battlefield?|
  53. \s[-2]
  54.  
  55. \m[3|2]\w[4]
  56. \s[2]
  57. ... Maybe I was being a bit unreasonable.|
  58.  
  59. \s[5]
  60. Maybe? Talk about an overreaction.|
  61.  
  62. \s[2]\m[2|2]
  63. Anyway! Why are you bothering with that?\n
  64. You've told me countless times you like\n
  65. the wind blowing through your hair.|\n
  66. Why would you then cut it short again?|
  67.  
  68. \s[5]
  69. ... Force of habit. From my childhood in\n
  70. the nunnery. They kept our hair short so\n
  71. it would keep out of the way of things.|
  72.  
  73. \s[2]
  74. ... Lunete, you were a child. You can\n
  75. do whatever you want with your hair now.|
  76.  
  77. \s[5]
  78. I know, I know... But when it gets to my\n
  79. shoulders, I can feel like Sister Brunor\n
  80. is moments away from pulling me aside.|
  81.  
  82. \s[2]
  83. Sigh... Well, at least let me cut it;\n
  84. your lengths are all over the place!.|
  85.  
  86. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  87. And what would you know about cutting hair?|
  88.  
  89. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  90. I have four sisters, remember? I know\n
  91. far more than what most would when\n
  92. it comes to general grooming skills.|
  93.  
  94. \s[5]
  95. And yet you lack table manners...|
  96.  
  97. \s[2]
  98. ... W-well...|
  99. \s[-2]
  100.

  104. \f[1|Escanor]\m[1|2]\w[4]
  105. \s[2]
  106. Well, well, well,\m[5|5]\r[5] what have we here?|
  107.  
  108. \s[5]
  109. Escanor! You... Do not\n
  110. sneak up on me like that!|
  111.  
  112. \s[2]
  113. Isn't it a bit early to start drinking,\n
  114. Lunete? We're still in the thick of it.|
  115.  
  116. \s[5]
  117. ... You are right. Ugh. I told myself I\n
  118. would only have a little bit to take the\n
  119. edge off. But that is still too much...|
  120.  
  121. \s[2]
  122. Well, at least you're not drunk.|
  123.  
  124. \s[5]
  125. Please. I would never. ... Around these people.|
  126.  
  127. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  128. Just me, huh?|
  129.  
  130. \s[5]
  131. ... I suppose we have become somewhat\n
  132. of a drinking duo, have we not?|
  133.  
  134. \s[2]
  135. Problem is you have no tolerance.\n
  136. And you don't know when to stop.\n
  137. And you--|
  138.  
  139. \s[5]\m[5|5]\e[5|2]
  140. I know! I am a filthy alcoholic with\n
  141. the propensity for passing out.|\n
  142. The only thing worse is a violent drunk.|
  143.  
  144. \s[2]\e[2|0]
  145. Hey now, it's not that serious. I was just\n
  146. teasing, but I'll stop if I'm upsetting you.|
  147.  
  148. \s[5]
  149. ... ... ...|
  150. \s[-2]
  151.  
  152. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  153. ... Next time we go to the tavern, cut\n
  154. me off when you find it appropriate.|
  155.  
  156. \s[2]
  157. All right, I can do that.|
  158.  
  159. \s[5]
  160. And in return, I'll tell you when\n
  161. you have eaten enough food.|
  162.  
  163. \s[2]\m[2|2]
  164. H-hold on, when were my eating habits\n
  165. put on the chopping block!? I'm fine!|
  166.  
  167. \s[5]
  168. I have seen you eat so much you could\n
  169. barely move. I had to push you out on\n
  170. a cart. It was... very disgusting.|
  171.  
  172. \s[2]
  173. That's happened maybe three times!|
  174.  
  175. \s[5]\b[5|1]
  176. ... ... ...|
  177. \s[-2]
  178.  
  179. \w[32]
  180.  
  181. \s[2]
  182. All right, I guess MAYBE I overeat.\n
  183. Occasionally. Every once in a while.|
  184.  
  185. \s[5]\b[5|0]
  186. If you were not born into nobility,\n
  187. you would have changed your habits\n
  188. years ago. Do you even look at your bill?|
  189.  
  190. \s[2]
  191. ... Not really, no.|
  192.  
  193. \s[5]
  194. Then we can both work on something.\n
  195. I will watch my drinking, you will\n
  196. watch your appetite. How is that?|
  197.  
  198. \s[2]
  199. ... Fine.|
  200. \s[-2]
  201.  
  202. ## B
  203. # Base
  204.  
  205. \f[2|Escanor]\e[2|1]
  206. \s[2]
  207. Oh yes! I'm so glad I found those kids\n
  208. back in town. I can get food brought\n
  209. straight to me for a small fee?|\n
  210. What an incredible idea! What will\n
  211. the elites think of next, hahaha!|
  212. \s[-2]
  213.  
  214. \w[32]
  215.  
  216. \f[6|Lunete]\m[6|5]\w[4]
  217. \s[5]
  218. Escanor, I wanted to--\n
  219. Oh... Lord Dyfed above...\n
  220. How long did it take you\n
  221. to lug this much food here?|
  222.  
  223. \s[2]
  224. Eh? None at all! I waited\n
  225. for it to all come to me!|
  226.  
  227. \s[5]
  228. What do you mean? Like it was\n
  229. delivered to you from the tavern?|
  230.  
  231. \s[2]
  232. Precisely! Genius idea, right?|\n
  233. I just paid a few kids in town\n
  234. and they brought over the food\n
  235. as soon as it was ready to eat!|
  236.  
  237. \s[5]
  238. ... How much money did you spend?|
  239.  
  240. \s[2]
  241. Money, shmoney! What purpose is there\n
  242. in hording money when it can be spent\n
  243. on things like food and spirits?|
  244.  
  245. \s[5]
  246. You are not going to convince me\n
  247. paying children to ferry you food\n
  248. is a good use of your gold, Escanor.|\n
  249. Sooner or later these poor financial\n
  250. decisions will bring you to ruin.|
  251.  
  252. \s[2]\e[2|0]
  253. ... Okay, but what if I share\n
  254. the wine with you? What then?|
  255.  
  256. \s[5]
  257. ... Do not try and tempt me.|\n
  258. Quitting drinking is on my\n
  259. goals for this year, you know.|
  260.  
  261. \s[2]
  262. Sounds a bit extreme to me,\n
  263. but I'll help you if I can.|
  264.  
  265. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  266. ... Next time we go to the tavern, cut\n
  267. me off when you find it appropriate.|
  268.  
  269. \s[2]
  270. All right, I can do that.|
  271.  
  272. \s[5]
  273. And in return, I'll tell you when\n
  274. you have eaten enough food.|
  275.  
  276. \s[2]\m[2|2]
  277. H-hold on, I didn't agree to this!|
  278.  
  279. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  280. It can be a learning experience for us both.|
  281. \s[-2]
  282.  
  283. \f[5|nil]
  284.  
  285. \s[2]
  286. Wait, stop! W-where are you\n
  287. taking all of my food!?|
  288. \s[-2]
  289.  
  290. \f[5|Lunete]
  291. \s[5]
  292. You have enough to feed the entire\n
  293. army. So I am sharing with everyone.|
  294.  
  295. \s[2]
  296. ... This is not fair.|
  297. \s[-2]
  298.  
  299. ## A
  300. \f[2|Lunete]\f[5|Escanor]
  301. \s[5]
  302. Hrmp.|
  303.  
  304. \s[2]
  305. Someone appears to be grouchy.\n
  306. What is the matter, Escanor?|
  307.  
  308. \s[5]
  309. ... I'm hungry.|
  310.  
  311. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  312. Hah! Still upset that I decided\n
  313. to curb your appetite I see.|
  314.  
  315. \s[5]
  316. Just a little. But it's fine.\n
  317. I'll get over it eventually.|
  318.  
  319. \s[2]
  320. I should hope so.|
  321. \s[-2]
  322.  
  323. \w[16]
  324.  
  325. \s[5]
  326. ... Hey, Lunete, what do you plan on\n
  327. doing once the war is over? Just go\n
  328. back to Fafnir and remain a knight?|
  329.  
  330. \s[2]\e[2|0]
  331. That was my plan. Why do you ask? Are\n
  332. you planning on an early retirement?|
  333.  
  334. \s[5]
  335. I think I am, yeah. I mean, this is fun\n
  336. and all, fighting alongside my friends\n
  337. like you, but I have other duties too.|
  338.  
  339. \s[2]
  340. Right, being the son of a noble, the\n
  341. only one at that. You will be inheriting\n
  342. the land your father governs, right?|
  343.  
  344. \s[5]
  345. Yeah. I mean, I've seen my father do it,\n
  346. and no one in our area of Fafnir complains\n
  347. about the leadership but... I don't know.|
  348.  
  349. \s[2]
  350. Don't know what?|
  351.  
  352. \s[5]
  353. If they'll accept me, and if I'm ready\n
  354. for the responsibility. I mean, I can't\n
  355. even remember the name of my fiance!|
  356.  
  357. \s[2]
  358. Fiance? Oh, right, you told me about this\n
  359. before; when you were younger you and her\n
  360. were placed in an arranged marriage.|\n
  361. When exactly are you supposed to marry?|
  362.  
  363. \s[5]
  364. When I turn 25. So... Very soon.\n
  365. I know her name starts with a B...\n
  366. But I have no idea anything else.|
  367.  
  368. \s[2]
  369. Wait, you have not seen her since the\n
  370. engagement over twenty years ago?|
  371.  
  372. \s[5]
  373. Nope. I mean, I think I was supposed to\n
  374. stay in contact with the family, but I\n
  375. probably forgot all about the affair.|\n
  376. I mean, I was five years old, can you\n
  377. really expect someone that young to keep\n
  378. track of things twenty years in the future?|
  379.  
  380. \s[2]
  381. No... But there are certainly records.\n
  382. Just go and ask your parents. They can\n
  383. give you all the information you need.|
  384.  
  385. \s[5]
  386. ... Good point. But I want to do this all\n
  387. on my own, you know? To prove that I can.|
  388.  
  389. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  390. You certainly are not doing yourself any favors.|
  391.  
  392. \s[5]
  393. Ah, come on! Help me out, it'll be our secret.|
  394.  
  395. \s[2]
  396. One of many secrets we share, I suppose.\e[2|0]\n
  397. You said B, right? Do you remember the house?|
  398.  
  399. \s[5]
  400. No... But I remember they're from Hreidmar,\b[5|2] and\n
  401. their crest is... \b[5|0]a winged lion. Green flag.|
  402.  
  403. \s[2]
  404. Noblewoman, B, Hreidmar, winged lion, green family\n
  405. color. B... Bronwyn? That sounds like a fancy name.|
  406.  
  407. \s[5]
  408. Hmm... That sounds close, but I don't\n
  409. think that was it. Br... Brystol?|
  410.  
  411. \s[2]\m[2|2]
  412. Wait, hold on... I recall House Chlothar\n
  413. having twin children around your age...\n
  414. I think one of them was named... Brunhild?|
  415.  
  416. \s[5]
  417. Oh! That... could be it. Yes, once this war\n
  418. is over, I'll try and get in contact with\n
  419. House Chlothar, without my father's help.|\e[5|1]\n
  420. You really are a lifesaver, Lunete.|
  421.  
  422. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  423. All I ask in return is to attend the wedding.|
  424.  
  425. \s[5]
  426. Attend? You're going to be my best man!|
  427.  
  428. \s[2]\e[2|0]
  429. Er... Are you allowed to do that?|
  430.  
  431. \s[5]
  432. It'll be my wedding. If I want my best\n
  433. man to be a woman, that's what's going to\n
  434. happen. I won't take no for an answer!|
  435.  
  436. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  437. All right, well I accept. Now,\n
  438. take care to survive until then.|
  439.  
  440. \s[5]
  441. Hah! As if you had to ask.|
  442. \s[-2]
