- Linhardt! Come on, this is no time to be snoozing!
- Really, Caspar? It's not even midday yet.
- Uh, we're well into midday, Linhardt.
- Yes, but the warm rays of the sun and gentle cooling
[cdb]breeze have utterly enraptured me. So on that note,
[cdb]it's back to sleep.
- I'm gonna rip that blanket right off you! Now get up,
[cdb]because I found something amazing!
- How many times in my life have I heard that from
[cdb]you only to find the truth considerably less engaging?
- OK, first of all, not true, and second of all, this is way
[cdb]more amazing than all those other times.
- Mmm, I wonder. But very well. Astound me.
- Look! Someone took down that gigantic bear!
- I'd rather not look, thank you. I've little interest in
[cdb]witnessing blood and gore so early in the day.
- Oh, but it's already been cleaned and everything.
- Which means some open wounds will still be present,
[cdb]plus whatever blood was slopped about in the process.
- Fine, then don't look at that part—just look at that
[cdb]terrifying face! I'd give anything to take out a
[cdb]monster like this.
- Then you should form a hunting party, set up traps,
[cdb]and proceed with your life's work.
- No, I don't wanna hunt it—I wanna take it down!
Bare-handed bear handling, you know?
- I understand your fixation, but in all of Fódlan...
- Only my father could pull it off? Is that what you're
[cdb]gonna say? Hey, I'm not gonna be content being in
[cdb]his shadow forever!
- Rousing words, yet I seem to remember Count
Bergliez was still in the academy when he brought
[cdb]down a bear and emerged unscathed.
- You're already older than he was then.
- Don't care! It's not too late! I'm gonna beat a bear,
[cdb]then I'm gonna get armor made that's just like my
[cdb]old man's!
- You said the same when we were young, then decided
[cdb]to drag me along for the ride.
- You took me through hill and dale in search of one,
[cdb]which made an absolute mess of my clothes and hair.
- And I had to treat your wounds every time you hurt
[cdb]yourself. Though I did become quite adept at healing
[cdb]magic as a result.
- So win-win, right? Plus, you helped me, which I very
[cdb]much appreciate.
- I suppose we'll call it a good thing and leave it at that.
But perhaps a moratorium should be declared on
[cdb]such behavior for the time being.
- Yes, I think that would be best.
- A more...uh...tor... Sorry, what now?
- Our focus should be on our enemies, not a bear.
- For this reason, I think it's best for you to put your
[cdb]dream on hold until the war is over.
- When peace reigns anew and we live in a world far
[cdb]better suited for free napping, I hope you can see
[cdb]your dream realized.
- Yeah, I guess that makes sense.
- Oh, and when that day does come, I will be happy to
[cdb]accompany you again. But for now, let's just focus on
[cdb]what is in front of us.
- Put the bear brawl on hold, got it.
- And hey, once I survive this war and get stronger,
[cdb]that bear'll be a pushover!
- That's not... Actually, yes. I suppose the possibility of
[cdb]that isn't zero.
- Let's survive this war so all of our wildest bear dreams
[cdb]can come true one day.
